Do not give up hope, Paola! You deserve hope and happiness. Keep fighting. One day soon it will change for the better and you will be so happy you kept going. You can do this! Believe that you can. God bless you.

I think accepting that it won't get better might actually help you feel better. Google positive nihilism...

Is this the same thing as optimistic nihilism and sunny nihilism?

I genuinely can't help but feel irredeemable over every little mistake made or regret I've had. It's so up and down, but I just miss the certainty. Knowing "this is who I am." I'm so disconnected from myself. Like, I'm really, really trying. Today is really rough... I got triggered the other night, and it's been hell since. I've been fighting seeking reassurance. I want it so, so incredibly bad, but I know it won't help me :( Some days, I just don't want to be here. It's funny because yesterday I felt amazing until I got triggered. I just immediately spiraled after that. I don't know. Does it genuinely get better? Will therapy really help me? Sometimes, I think maybe this is the best it'll get, and that scares me. Sorry for the vent. I'm just feeling so overwhelmingly anxious right now. I can't even cry (due to Zoloft). It feels claustrophobic somehow, having all these emotions trapped inside of my body with nowhere to go š

Today I had a big learning moment. My ocd had been getting better these past few weeks and things have been looking up but today i was struggling. I stayed in bed all day super bored and my ocd flared up really bad. Looking back at my day now i feel bad how I handled certain situations.. im just going to look at it as a learning moment and handle bad days differently. Everyday can't be great, I have lots of things im looking forwards to and i know tomorrow will be better. Recovery isn't a straight line

Iām really depressed and lately life has been really really bad. Everyday, itās like something horrible happens and my mind tries to make me forget it. My family life isnāt that great and everything is super tough for me. Itās like when I get better I go like a million steps back. I ended up doing something bad today:ended up becoming aggressive to myself and caused some ouchies) it hurt a lot and right now Iām really stressed and have been for a while. My mental well being has been extremely bad these days. I have obsessive compulsive disorder but for me itās decently strong so itās hard to contain, Complex-trauma, depression, and possibly ADHD. Itās an awful mix. My life is a living hell everyday. Iām not sure how much longer I can keep lying to myself to Myself that Iām getting better when in reality Iām in so much pain, itās like Iām barely doing anything at all. Please, help, Iāve been acting not like myself. I want to live, even though itās extremely difficult too and I rather much not be here, but people are counting on me and I donāt want to fail them. How can I convince myself to stay a little longer when I am fully burnt out from trying to get better? Iām in so much pain. I donāt know how to even deal with it. Iām so lost, I might lose it more, and Iām scared for myself. I feel like I donāt even deserve help. Iām so mentally unwell I canāt even think correctly. I hate everything and just want to sleep forever and ever. Iām so numb to it all. I donāt feel anything anymore.
