I understand completely. OCD isn’t forever though. We can get out of this. We will one day be back to our normal selves, maybe you should think of trying medication if you’re not on it already

I thought it didn’t go away? What meds are you on?

@Bnd1 I was on Luvox and I just got off of it because it made me worse. But I’ve heard of medication helping a lot of other people. I’m on Anafranil now on my 2nd day so hopefully I’ll get a miracle

i relate to this so much. as someone who has struggled with ocd my entire life but felt it begin to kick up horribly a few years ago it felt like biting the forbidden apple, like i gained a knowledge and perspective i could never get rid of. but, looking back i have to say that with some medication and pushing myself to live my life despite what my brain tells me, there can be an after just like there was a before. it ebbs and flows and we just have to adapt. i’m sending positive energy your way❤️

It could go away though. I've had long periods with little to no obsessions, where I've been able to focus on other things without OCD ruining my days. Currently I'm going through a relapse, but I'm trying to manage, knowing there will most likely be good days again. I have no reason to think that it couldn't be the same for you! ☺️ Having anxiety is a lot like having chronic pain. You'll have good days and you'll have bad days. The important part is that a day with anxiety doesn't have to be ruined! Instead of deciding that your life can never be good again because you have OCD, try to find the things that makes it good anyway. We only have this one life, so we have to make the best of the cards that are dealt to us. Have a good day and I wish you the best of luck in the future 😊

Yeah I think that’s why I’m scared of them. I don’t want to be worse. I don’t feel like my ocd is that’s bad yet. Praying for your miracle!

OCD has taken a lot from me. I miss when I was able to live life and not feel so consumed with anxiety.

Ocd is clever. It’s clever at making you feel like if you worked this one thing out everything will be fine and great and as it was… what a lie. Just when you think you’ve solved one thing it’s straight onto the next , just when you think you’ve reached certainty it suddenly doesn’t matter anymore as something more urgent and important has come up… Ill always be a terrible person in my ocd mind. I thought I was over this issue but no…my mind has created another one, a more urgent and serious one. When will this end.

I feel like I’ll never lead a normal life again with OCD, my thoughts have begun to be convince especially about POCD. I feel like so sad and down that this will be my life forever. I’ll never get to fall in love again without intrusive thoughts. I’ll never be worth falling in love with. I can never be intimate again. I’m just done, my life is over. I can’t even look at my nephew and niece anymore without the smile fading. It feels like I’m so nasty and then my brain convinces me this is how I feel. That there’s some part of me that is a p*do and that’s it. I’m a disgusting human being for that. I just feel hopeless
