i'm there too.. i'm 28 and everyone around me is working, starting familys and are going places.. while i'm back at my moms place trying to become human again, and that can really get me down to.. but as i just found of from this (thanks to your rant) i am not alone, and you are not alone.. so don't let that take over, cuz i think all of us would do amazing stuff if it were our choice! and yes, the word lazy (which is used way too often when it comes to this apparently) makes me see red.. they really have no idea how ut feels to be prisoner in your own mind so their opinion doesn't matter ?❤ all of you are fucking warriors, so don't let your minds or anyone else tell you different! ❤

I get you im in the same position as you,bthat used to seriously get me so down because my friends are going places. I’ve only had one job I haven’t been able to do any due to ocd ( I only found out I had ocd this year when I have been suffering for four years) but now I’m actively trying to recover. Putting in the work no matter how hard it gets because time is passing me by and I want to live life the way I want to live it. Sending you love and strength. ?

It's true, i often feel weak and useless but actually i'm a fighter and i've more strenght then i often think i have, but it's not only the ocd that let's me down, it's also knowing that i've failed in many things, things that comes easy for others, or so it seems, i feel like i do not only have to deal with my ocd, but with the judgements of others, i had to go back and live under my parents roof with my son, having the knowledge that i make my partner and my parents their lives quiet often like hell, and i unwanted expose my son to my illness and that hurts the most, i also feel envy towards people who seems to get it all and i hate myself for thinking sometimes, why is their live perfect, can't something bad happen to them, something that make them feel like all hope is lost because that's the way i most of the time feel

I can't stop thinking about ending my life. I feel like I'm not even living, I'm just surviving. Everyone is capable of being a person and functioning and I'm just stuck here avoiding everything. My psychiatrist said my ocd is severe and it will all take time and I'll start erp and I'm already on medication but I just feel so depressed and like I won't be able to handle erp and it's already too late for me. I feel inhuman, it's debilitating. My major theme is just fear or contamination, I can't even make myself a meal I can't touch anything in the kitchen. I get stuck in the shower for 2 hours and when I don't shower because I'm depressed I feel like a walking germ. My hands are a mess, my school work is shit, I avoid and avoid and I'm just so tired of "living" like this. My psychiatrist said they don't have any therapists available right now like.... excuse me? What do you mean u don't have any 😭 I honestly don't even know why I'm typing this becuase nothing helps, nothing ever will. I'm so deep into this I can't get out, my room looks like shit, I can't live in this body anymore, I really can't. I let everyone down, I am and will be such a dissapointment. I don't have any dreams or goals or passions I just wasn't made to be here. I don't know how or who to ask for help like there's nothing anyone can do, I'm already on meds. I can't keep being like this, seeing everyone judge me for acting insane.

I’m feeling kind of sad cause today was not a really good day in terms of my ocd. I was feeling kind of foggy/numb and that send me to spiraling. I’m 21 years old currently studying but my family has been having trouble with money for the last couple years(we’re just me and my mom) and I kinda want to get a job but everything is far from my home and I wouldn’t be able to return back at night, also it’s either way more expensive to move or the schedule wouldn’t let me take my classes. The point is that because of that every time my mom is stress tends to treat me bad, she speaks to me like I’m stupid or she just screams to nothing cursing all life and everything and that actually makes me feel soo bad and guilty for not doing anything, I know it’s hard for me to get a job that actually helps us without quitting school but that doesn’t stop me from feeling like I’m a burden. I want to help, I want to maybe hug her or something but I know she will be angrier and probably will reject it. So that’s it, I just feel like she punishes me for the stress she’s carrying and I get it but one day is happy and it feels like all love and the next is treating me like that, Idk it’s hard (also I feel like I shouldn’t be saying this cause it’s all my fault) 🫤

Everyday I wake up, all my mind makes me think of is the stuff I’ve done in the past, like all day I’m in a constant cycle of judging who I used to be and it hurts so so much. I wish I never thought to do those things, I wish I had been more mature than how I was before, it’s really lowering my self worth and I don’t think I’ve ever felt this miserable before, like last summer was the worst because I was dealing with this shit, I about almost ended my life over it, and I thought it would get better, which it did, but it didn’t last but for a while. As soon as it became 2025 I was going through it again, having constant cycles of “I’m a good person” to “I’m the worst person imaginable” and I’m so sick of it because I just want to feel like the good person l like to imagine myself to be, but I can’t because of shit I did in the past that I obsess over. I’ve cried and screamed so much over it and it seems like it will never leave me.
