I felt like that few days ago...just pure hopelessness and despair...I'm just so sad for all of us. We feel like we are all some terrible people when in reality people with OCD are just gentle souls, I heard people with OCD are actually too good. I'm sure 100 % you are good person too. And it does get better, there are a lot of people who recovered completely. Don't let OCD win. What type of OCD you have?

You can get through this. Take it day by day, minute by minute. I've felt that way before, not suicidal but just wanting it all to stop. Life gets so much better. You'll find the way to get past this

There has been no evidence of it ever getting better. After seeking treatment, it has only gotten worse. I feel like my brain could explode any second. I'm tired of people telling me to hang in there, or that it won't last forever. So tired of it. I'm tired of the optimism.

There actually is evidence. The evidence are people who are now OCD specialists online like Ali Greymond, Mark Freeman and Rober Bray. They all suffered from OCD and they all don't have OCD anymore. Mark Freeman just said few days ago he beat OCD not 100% but 110%! So, it can be done definitely. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to offend you in any way but you're doing something wrong or your therapist isn't good. Maybe the exposures are too hard for you.

To give someone false hope is the cruelest.

When I first tried treatment I had the same. I realised that, for me, we had started to difficult. We were trying to work through one of my really big obsessions that were giving me the most anxiety. Once we started exposure on the smaller things it built up my confidence and encouraged me that recovery was possible

I hate sitting in my room with only me and my thoughts. I have lost my faith in the lord and can’t seem to get on with my life. I’m so stuck on everything and can’t seem to get better. I keep self harming and get to the point to where I see the second layer of my skin. It gets worse and worse each time I have suicidal thoughts. One of these days it’ll get so bad that well you can probably guess what I may do. I have been abused physically mentally and sexually in my past and it haunts me every single day of my life. Any time I try to talk to someone about my mental health they tell me I’m a waste of their time or that I need to talk to someone other than them. But all that does is make me keep it all bottled up and I can’t take it anymore. They say mental abuse is worse than physical and I can see why they say that. I just want a normal life so I don’t have to be depressed 24/7. It ruins my social life and it makes me loose my friends and family because of how distant I am. I just need help and please give me advice. Also sorry I’m not very good at explaining things.

I feel like it's got to a point that I just can't deal with stuff on my own anymore. I've tried to help myself with compulsions and thoughts and behaviours and it helps to an extent but I feel like I just need more help. But I don't even know where to start, I've felt so ignored in the past and I don't even know where you can turn to. I'm in the UK so it's difficult, especially considering I'm only 17, to get any help for this kind of thing. I just want someone to talk to, something to help – medication, maybe? I want to try it, I want to see if it would stop the overthinking for a while. Stuff isn't as bad as it has been before, but I feel like I can't just leave this anymore. I just don't know who to turn to or where to go from here.

Really bad theme right now is death, I keep thinking about how one day or at any moment my heart will stop my brain will stop & my memories & everything I know will all fade away. It is giving me so much anxiety I’m only 18, but I realize it all happens to us it is bound, we are born to die. I know it’s a silly thing to be scared because it’s not helping the quality of my life worrying about it and even when I do die, I won’t care , if you don’t have a working brain then how can you care 🤷♀️. It is tainting my everyday life currently & honestly making me terribly depressed & it is giving me derealization & making me feel nihilistic, I’ll remind myself it’s okay but then with my ocd i don’t stop thinking and thinking about it and it’s seriously so hard to stay present in the moment because this thought just feels like I can’t scrub it away it’s miserable I struggle with religion, but I do pray to anything that’s out there possibly listening, because it is comforting, it just feels like this whole experience Is pointless & I am afraid of the unknown and what is to possibly happen but I’m subjected to it anyways so why should it matter
