Just been so exhausted and tired of dealing with OCD lately lol kind of jus put me in a depressive state of mind like it’s not gonna get better and then that’s where the suicidal intrusive thoughts came? Which then makes it 10X worse…I love life but being depressed just makes it hard to look forward to stuff and see past it ya know?

@Anonymous are you actually depressed or do you think it’s more of depressive emotions itself? there’s shockingly a difference

@Anonymous you just gave yourself one. you wanna be a good parent. you got them to hold onto. its against your morals, that’s why these thoughts bother you so much. they are just thoughts man. the fact you’re on here anxious and stuff shows that’s probably the last thing you wanna do. maybe you do, maybe you don’t. quit trying to figure it out it’ll save you tons

Yes! I was diagnosed with S-OCD, MDD & GAD in March after being hospitalized for suicidal ideations (which wasn’t a true diagnosis). I definitely have days where I feel the depression more or feel the OCD more and anxiety is just a constant. You’re already starting with the right mindset that your current obsessions are temporary and things will eventually get better. I think we all forget this too often!

Would I know if I was suicidal man? Like I’m super scared of it. Idk I just feel like I’m in a dark place because of OCD lately. And it’s hard to see past it.

@Kids4Christ You’ll know. The intrusive thoughts become wayyyyy more convincing. People who are truly suicidal have a firm intention and plan to end their life. https://www.treatmyocd.com/blog/suicidal-ocd-2

yeah it's possible to have intrusive thoughts about suicide, if that's what you're asking! I don't have them myself but I'd assume they'd take the shape of like "i don't want to die/kill myself, but what if I did/what if I secretly do?" in the same way that most intrusive thoughts suggest you might want or do something that you fear

Yeah I know it’s just the depression that’s kind of just making it super confusing. I don’t want to die. I love life it’s just been very stressful these past couple months

Can you have an intrusive thought/feeling about not wanting to live or feeling like there’s no purpose?

Yep I had a brief moment of suicidal ocd a few days ago. I’m kinda depressed but I don’t wanna kill myself but it’s normal to have because ocd can latch onto anything at anytime

Yes. I was diagnosed with depression and intrusive fair of committing suicide was my very first reason to visit psychiatrist. Cured from depression, trying to deal with OCD.
