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!

Conflicted
TW// suicidal ideation There are things I want to do like i have an interview tomorrow for an exciting internship, but i also feel like I kinda don't wanna be here anymore. I'm not actively trying to do things to end my life, but I'm getting more and more tired of the same shit every day and i don't think I even want to come to terms with it and live for the next 40 or 50 years. maybe my constitution just sucks but idk if that's something I want. I don't want to accept OCD. im exhausted and frustrated. I don't want this in my life. But I'm not sure I want a life anymore anyways.

how do i survive this?
i want to get this out of the way; i’m not suicidal. i’m a 17 y/o guy whose been living with OCD for what i assume is most of my life despite only getting the diagnoses last year. i’ve been hustling on despite my mental health really consuming my life to moments in time where i question my sanity and self control. it’s the lack of control that really kills me with this disorder. each day i wake up, it’s the same persistent reminders; it’s the same meaningless conversations replaying; it’s the same small rituals that just barely let me breathe before the thoughts return. nothing i do is gonna stop that unbearable monogamy where i have to sit back and let my eyes be peeled open; i don’t know how to live with that. no pill has worked on me, and any response i give the thoughts just make them worse. right now i’m trying to just sit through it and not care. don’t let it effect me emotionally; try not to feel the discomfort. then it starts to manifest into physical pain where i feel the bones of my chest have this pressure—like staples entering them at the rhythm of a heart beat. i’m getting though this, but i’m not enjoying my life when doing so. i don’t know if i have a future where it isn’t just this repeating through the process of each day. i don’t want to spend the rest of my life avoiding the one thing i’m supposed to have control over. i also don’t want to drown my days in self medicating or get addicted doing so—like i already am. i don’t see the way to make this life of mine work, especially given how much i don’t have to do deal with at my age. of course that will come to. look, i’m not at risk; i really don’t want in anyway to die despite being basically hopeless. i’m numb to the pain of it, i don’t feel anything in my desire to escape these cycles, i just need an out. i’m not seeing a way to move forward. i’m willing to hear anything.
