How do I stop doing stuff like this?

[sodack]

If I’m reading something on a page and I click on something else even if the information isn’t significant I’ll go back to the page and read it like seven times because I feel like I have to. Same as when I’m watching a video and I hear a phrase, I’ll rewind the video like 5 times just to hear it again for literally no reason. It’s kind of stressing me out and I have to force myself to not re watch or re read something over and over. I don’t know if this is my ocd coming back, I used to have really severe ocd for a few years but I willed myself out of it somewhat.

I used to be on meds, but only because I was forced to take them ever since I was 11. A little over a year ago my parents stopped watching me take them so I immediately stopped them and experienced no side effects. No one has noticed and they even say “wow I can really tell how the meds are helping you” even though I haven’t taken them for a very long time.

why don't you try doing that again assuming it's your ocd.

I was only able to will myself out of it out of necessity. It was less that it went away and more that I had to ignore it out of fear of punishment.

its natural human behavior not everyone has a mental disorder

Just stop doing that? If you paid more attention to the things you're reading/watching maybe you wouldn't feel that urge as often.

It’s not like I’m not paying attention, I’m actively reading or watching it. I just feel like I have to do it over and over.

Write down the things that stand out as they come, then. Keep a notebook nearby, or something.
