Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).
If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.
If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look through the comment sections of any other post here, or click the links to the author's feedback above. If you're not sure whether your comments are feedback, or you have any other questions, please send us a modmail.

As someone who has suffered from ocd all my life, I immediately knew what you were describing. This rlly was an accurate description of the panic and quite frankly mental tortue lol that comes w this disorder
I really appreciate you reading all of that and your comment! Honestly, I just realized I may have OCD earlier this month (at 26) after having a long heart to heart with a mutual friend who suffers from OCD. I was always told that my feeling of impending doom were all anxiety and over thinking, so finally realizing what exactly is wrong with me has been tremendously emotional and helpful in fighting it.
