It can be tough but you must keep trying, time and effort, do not hope for it to end but rather enjoy the current moment

Hang in there friend! As convincing as it is, it's all the same bully underneath that mask. Don't let OCD tell you it's anything otherwise.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Ocd really does convince us- but it all based on feelings. Try to sit through this and be uncertain 🙏

I'm so sorry to hear that OCD is convincing you that your intrusive thoughts are real. You are definitely not alone, I felt that way before I started ERP therapy! Have you been able to see an ERP therapist yet?

I feel for you right now. I know that in the moment it can feel so real. Remember though, thoughts and feelings are often inaccurate. Especially when you have OCD. Please know that you are not alone in this, so many people have been where you are an have gotten through it, you can too.

It feels like my life is about to end
No I’m not attempting or anything. I am just really in a depressive state as of now. I am so convinced that my fear is real you don’t even know. I don’t know what to do. I just want to go to sleep and wake up in a reality where this is all gone. But honestly I don’t know if that would change anything. I’m scared that this is who I was all along, and I’ve just been delaying what I will eventually become. I don’t want to do ANYTHING that my intrusive thoughts say AT ALL. But honestly that doesn’t mean anything anymore. I’m so convinced of the thought “you’ve been doing it this whole time without realizing it.” I think it’s true now. I feel incredibly stuck. I just want to be hugged :(
