When your mind won't let you move on
It's exhausting when nothing ever feels certain enough
Maybe you've always thought of yourself as an overthinker, a perfectionist, or someone who just worries a lot. You might even recognize that some of your thoughts aren't entirely rational, but that doesn't make them any easier to let go of.
For some people, these experiences are connected to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), including what is often referred to as high-functioning OCD. While you may be keeping up with work, relationships, and everyday responsibilities, the amount of mental energy it takes can feel exhausting.
You don't have to keep searching for certainty to feel at ease
WHEN OCD & PERFECTIONISM TAKE OVER
You may find yourself:
Replaying conversations or situations to make sure you didn't say or do something wrong
Second-guessing decisions and worrying about making the wrong choice
Seeking reassurance from others but never feeling fully satisfied with the answer
Holding yourself to high standards and struggling with the fear of making mistakes
Experiencing unwanted or intrusive thoughts that are difficult to dismiss
Feeling the need to check, review, or repeat things until they feel "just right"
Mentally analyzing your thoughts, feelings, or intentions to make sure they mean something
Struggling to move forward without feeling completely certain
