No confidence
Anyone else feeling like they have no confidence? I'm at a new job and I feel so dumb and embarrassed, I don't have any confidence whatsoever. Feels like I'm doing everything wrong.

I struggle with this as well and also with low self esteem too. You are not alone
Yeah ocd took my confidence and self esteem too. I hate it
Def are you in ERP? The maybe maybe not technique has really helped me with this.
Yeah I am. I will bring this up with my psychologist
I feelbl that way all the time at my job, but like I have schooling, all my bosses tell me I'm valuable, im fast, I retain information like a sponge, constantly am doing Good, but constantly and always worried and questioning myself at work, if it's even actually enough and it more than 100% is, it's very confusing
Yeah my new boss is telling me im doing a good job but I still keep questioning myself.
@lmls1305 Try to over think about it to much, I think about it this way, if the bosses or any higher ups aren't saying anything, then your 100% fine, usually the people who complain about nothing are the actual people that you work with, not the bosses
@lmls1305 Try to not overthink*
@IWeldDaily Well thing is with ocd I just always overthink things
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 can't live with OCD anymore. It's ruining my life. I feel like I'm being constantly bullied in my own mind all day everyday. I don't know if what I think and feel is ever real or normal or okay, what is me and what is the OCD thoughts. I don't know if any of my experiences are normal. I'm exhausted from picking apart every single conversation I ever have with anyone until I'm strung out by a vague and ambiguous feeling of guilt. I'm tired of feeling like I'm a bad person and feeling scared all the time and not knowing why and having my brain spin me out on an endless spiralling train of thoughts that never goes anywhere and just makes me feel disconnected from everything and everyone around me. I don't know what I feel and if what I feel is normal or if anything I am doing is real and actually me or if I'm 'losing my mind.' I don't even know if this makes any sense. I get into these states of mind where every thought in my head and everything I feel and perceive makes me question my own sanity. I don't know if anyone likes me because I have absolutely no concept of what I am actually like. I feel completely lost and confused CONSTANTLY.
Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.
