    I've been having anxiety about real event ocd that I'm not even sure about. I've been fighting a compulsion to start confessing because that can start straining relationships. This is something from years ago that I haven't thought about for years that popped up closer in the evening. I used to take medication that would help but it was the kind of medication that just causes problems in the long run that's no longer an option

    You can actually get a color filter on iPhone, don’t know about android tho.
    But you can choose a red color filter, it helps not disturbing your melatonin levels in your brain, because it’s much different from the night shift setting, because instead of removing some of the harmful blue light it removes all the blue light from your phone screen. And it doesn’t mean you just can watch videos before night time, read something instead. I’m reading light novels and manga on my phone, so that setting helps, so you still can look at your phone. At least it’s a lot cheaper than going out to buy a lot of books :)

    I don’t know what happen to me. I used to be normal. I used to fall as sleep easily. I used to not worry. Now every single tip of my body feels like giant. I’m worried about anything. If I felt a little dizzy, I already diagnosed my self with multiple sickness. I don’t know what’s going on. I’m in the country where medication and check up is too expensive. I got my blood presumed checked ! and I was fine. Got my ct scan result and I was fine. I got blood work and I was fine. I don’t know what do to anymore. I’m tired.
