Know that you are not alone in your battle with OCD. Everyone on this app is struggling with it. I hope you know you are so strong for facing OCD, that it takes strength to handle it. That shows alot about you. You have a purpose. Maybe your meant to help others with OCD one day. Maybe someone’s going to help you. You never know what the reason is but know you deserve an amazing life. You can have one even living with OCD. The feelings you feel are temporary, they won’t last forever and you owe it to yourself to have a happy life. Don’t give into the lies, We all are fighting the same battle. You aren’t alone.

You don’t have to process anything or try to feel anything but know that you have to keep moving forward. Even if it’s baby steps everyday.You keep going. Even when you feel you can’t, you just do. Show up for yourself and even if you don’t believe it, tell yourself that you will get through this. Allow yourself to feel what you feel but don’t allow it to take over. You will get better. Your life is of value and you matter. Don’t let OCD tell you any different. You are stronger then OCD and it won’t take you. So please tell OCD to(excuse my words) fuck itself. You know you have a medical condition but you are not your medical condition. You have a life outside of OCD and OCD is not who you are. I’m sorry for going on but I have been at my lowest and it felt impossible to get out of but I’m telling you. It is and it will be ok. Praying for you!

TW I’m feeling really bad about myself today. I feel like a fraud and a liar. I’ve been unable to enjoy my time with my girlfriend because I’m bombarded with my thoughts. I’ve been asking for reassurance from so many people and nothing is helping. Nothing makes me feel better anymore and I’m worried that this is just how it’s going to be for forever. I miss when I could just be happy and not overthink so much. I miss being able to get through my days without this crippling anxiety. I’m worried there’s going to be a day where I realize I have no fight left in me

I don’t know if it’s worth it to keep going. I have so many diagnoses, so little support, and constant struggles with finding the right medication. My immune system is weak, I have multiple deficiencies, and I’m dealing with so many physical health problems on top of severe OCD. It’s just too much. On top of everything, my family treats me so not okay. Every single day is a fight just to keep going—to wake up, to eat, to take care of myself even a little. I’ve lost over ten pounds in the last two weeks from how depressed I’ve been. And instead of support, all I get is blame. My family constantly throws my struggles in my face, calling me selfish, as if I’m choosing this. I am trying so hard to push past all of this. But after five long months of severe OCD, anxiety, depression, panic disorder, and everything else making life unbearable, I am exhausted. And to be called lazy? Selfish? *Worthless*? How am I supposed to keep going when the people around me refuse to see how hard I’m trying? I don’t want this anymore. None of this suffering feels worth it. What am I fighting for just to be treated this way by my own family? To be yelled at for the look on my face, when my face reflects nothing but the stress, panic, and despair I’m drowning in? Am I still supposed to smile for them? This isn’t fair. No one should have to live like this. I don’t deserve to be treated this way, I’m really trying to keep going, but I just want everything to end.

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 😭
