Subliminals and OCD

My OCD shows up in the form of intrusive thoughts, anxiety, excessive sweating and constant self doubt.

Some things help like meditation, eating healthy, and avoiding over stimulating high dopamine activities.

An example of how I spiral. I ate junk food last night after eating paleo for a week and today my anxiety has been horrible due to imbalances caused by the consumption of those foods. I know it sounds a bit woo, and I wish it wasn’t so. To cope, I PMO, if you know what that means and also play fast-paced FPS PC games such as fortnite, as well as binge on social media shorts. In my opinion, the actions combine to fuel further imbalances, so I know what areas I need to work on to improve my situation.

But back on topic. I was curious how subliminals might help, in particular Quantum Limitless stage 1. Has anyone had success with this subliminal or any other subliminals in respect to OCD? I was mostly interested in QL because it works on the nervous system and because I already own it but I’d definitely be interested in hearing what other subliminal might help my situation.

I have Ocd, diagnosed at age 8. You most obviously have a dysregulated nervous system as well, just like me.

Sanguine would help most with the fight or flight autonomic issues.

I ran QL, 1 cycle each stage. For me, I noticed stage 2 most. I felt more connected and aware. I definitely recommend listening longer than 1 cycle each for best results.

A few personal recommendations based on my personal experience. Neurofeedback therapy helped me with nervous system dysregulation and anxiety. Worth looking into it it. I’ve been going for a few years but not always necessary for that long.

Also, get a blood test for your copper levels serum/plasma copper. I found out I was copper toxic and changing my diet and some other things I went from 120 copper down to 96 in 7 months. I’m still going but my point is, a lot of Ocd symptoms are much less or gone.

Subliminals can help offset unpleasant side effects or symptoms but won’t cure you, nor are they meant too.

Hope this helps

For sure, it is to do with the nervous system for me. Brain chemistry too could be a factor, although I’m not too knowledgeable on the topic.

I had a difficult time at school as a child but I wasn’t diagnosed until I was an adult. I first did talk therapy, then moved on to another therapist and did a CBT program. I tried different anti depressant medications but they did not work.

When nothing imrovoed, I decided to ignore the diagnosis because I didn’t really like the idea of labelling mental health issues. But as time has gone by, I’ve come full circle and realised that I need to deal with my problems from the perspective that I’m someone who has OCD.

I will look into your recommendation of neurofeedback therapy, as I’ve never heard of this before. The blood test with elevated copper is interesting too, although I don’t think I can do that anytime soon as I’ve developed a phobia of doctors.

I don’t think I expected the subliminals to cure me but I thought they could help me to work on these other areas of my life to better regulate my nervous system and brain chemicals. Perhaps I should look at another type of subliminal that helps me steer clear of activities that set me back in the healing process.

Thanks for your reply! :pray:

For the copper test, you can find order your own tests through life extension site, quest diagnostics, labcorp ect depending on where you live. FYI, Zinc antagonizes copper so if you’re not eating meat or deficient, copper can be high.

I bring up copper because it’s conductive, your nervous system is electrical. Copper can exacerbate anxiety, insomnia, ocd ect. Addressing this was a game changer for me.

If you’re listening to QL, check out Sanguine too, it’d help mellow you out for sure.

Good luck bro

I’m in Australia, but I’ll look into those labs.

It’s interesting that it helped you and that makes sense as copper is conductive and the nervous system is electrical. I never would have thought of it like that. Perhaps that’s why I do better on healthier whole food type diets, because I’m getting more minerals and they aren’t being depleted as fast with over stimulating foods and actions. Just speculation of course, I always felt there was a positive blood sugar stabilisation effect too.

Thanks for the subliminal advice, Quantum Limitless with Sanguine sounds good.

Look into L-Theanine. 200mg capsules. It’s used for stress, anxiety and insomnia, it also binds to and chelates copper. I take it everyday myself.

Thanks man. I’ll check it out.

The way you spiral with OCD looks completly similar to how I used to Spiral with CPTSD.
Supplements can go a long way…I recommend Ashwagandha, Shilajit, DL-Phenylanalin in the morning and Magnesium Gylcinate for sleeping.

The most important thing is though to learn alternatives when spiraling…and to recognize…I am starting to spiral…and thats okay…No shame for spiraling is the first important step…and then do something more healthy…calling a friend is best…just talking for 5 minutes can make a world of differnece. Go out for a walk… turn on your favorite song and dance to it…
The sooner you catch a spiral the better. And please dont push yourself down for starting to spiral.

Also be very careful with sumbliminal please…in trauma theraphy I learned that those spirals come when my core trauma (shame) is triggered…and a lot of the subliminal processing actually triggers those wounds and can start a spiral.

I wonder if this would be safe for a teenager?

Been researching since looking at this thread!

Edit: 100mg is safe! Ordered it!

That’s interesting. I looked up C-PTSD and I see a lot of overlap in symptoms. I will look into the supplements you suggest today.

Thanks too for those suggestions when spiralling. Shame does become a prominent emotion and also a feeling that I deserve to feel bad as the spiral continues.

I’ve had subliminal experience and I understand your warning. I’ll keep that in mind and take it slow.

Louise Hay believed OCD stems from a deep need for control due to fear or insecurity. In her book You Can Heal Your Life, she suggested that OCD reflects a fear of letting go and a desire for safety. She recommended affirmations like, ‘I am safe. I am at peace with life,’ to encourage self-acceptance and release of fear.

Subs like “Phoenix” or “Love Bomb” may be helpful, as they focus on overcoming fear, building self-trust, and promoting inner peace.

Wow, that theory sounds legit. I do desire control and a need for perfection, and an inability to let go due to a fear of feeling unsafe stifles my social and career aspirations. It’s a case of if I don’t do anything, I can’t make a mistake. I’m going to get that book and read it.

It makes sense too because when I worked with the psychologist who diagnosed me with the condition we talked a lot about how I was physically held down and restrained in other ways as a child. Nothing freaks me out more than the thought of being held down or trapped somewhere that I cannot move. A complete loss of control.

I did check out Love Bomb yesterday. I don’t like the name, as it reminds me of the song, but the objectives resonate with me. I’ll check out Phoenix too, thanks for the suggestions!
