Ugh, I battle daily with my thoughts that I have wasted so many years on OCD, I have this standard I think I should meet and I don’t do therefore the day is a flop.

Yes! I totally feel this. I have ADHD and trauma as well so it’s hard to not get stuck in a loop (either mentally or getting a work task perfect) and it can just go off the rails trying to clean up after the chaos getting something perfect created from the time it took.

Sorry - that was weirdly worded. I guess I mean once I’m already off the rails, it’s hard to even know how to get back on track and then my OCD tries to make up for my lack of time management / self care

My mental health is declining due to ocd. It’s like a huge mix between ocd episode and depression wave. I feel weak and hopeless. I wanna cry. I’m exhausted . I feel like I’ve lost myself again.

I miss my weekends...
I'm wondering if this is a common OCD experience: does anyone else find that when you have idle time, your mind just spirals into endless rumination on negative "what ifs" & intrusive thoughts? It's been happening to me for the past three years, which coincides with starting a really high-stress job. Weekends used to be my time to relax, but now I dread weekends...I only feel relief when I'm sleeping because it's the only time my mind seems to quiet down. It's honestly so depressing to lose that enjoyment. Does anyone else relate to this, and if so, what helps you cope?

Just right OCD
Hey guys just wondering if anyone suffers from this type of OCD. I feel a big struggle to even begin things because it doesn’t feel right or if I resume things it doesn’t feel right. Anyone have any advice ? Thank you
