Just wanted to tell you a phrase I read once "You will never be back to square one, because now you have more knwoledge" so you are not really going backwards, OCD is not a path it is a roller coaster, sometimes you are up and sometimes down, I also fail the same things over and over again but that is human, you will always have another opportunity to try again

Wow…. I read this and it felt like I was telling it! 43 years with this beast. I WILL conquer ocd. It will not define me anymore. You will too. Stay positive and remember to be nice to yourself. Sounds corny but it makes a huge difference. We (humans) have a tendency to put ourselves down, talk bad to ourselves. If you surround yourself with positive attitudes and lift yourself up instead of putting yourself down, you automatically feel better. You wouldn’t talk bad to someone else with ocd, you try to lift them up. Give yourself that same respect. You deserve that! I always try to live life thru my dogs eyes…. Live in the moment… don’t think about the past, and don’t worry about tomorrow. Live for today. Dogs are happy just being in the moment. If they don’t catch the squirrel, then they try again later. But they never give up! And neither should we! Stay strong, you got this!!!!!👍

I'm so tired 😭 I've been dealing with severe trans ocd for a month. My ocd is making me worry I'm a trans man. The thing is. I'm already out as nonbinary. I also compulsively confessed to my mom and told her I'm anxious I'll realize I'm a trans man and that I'm scared she'll hate me/abandon me. And she told me she would support me through it and my life even if she didn't understand it and that she wouldn't abandon me. I do like some masculine terms and I like he pronouns, I prefer they/them though. And I don't mind she, but I dont let people use it because I know they'll use it to misgender me. and that doesnt mean im a man. But I also don't know what I actually like/feel or what's OCD making me think I like/feel.. I can't stop ruminating and feeling like I need to label my gender pass nonbinary and think about if I feel like a man or not. So even when my biggest fear was denied I'm still anxious.

I’m really down and don’t have anyone i feel i can turn to. I’m just so tired of living as myself. I hate who i love with including myself. I feel so worthless. Having ocd on top of it makes me feel like im just a waste of space. I dont know how to stop feeling this way. Or if i deserve to. That’s all :(

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.
