So sad :( and crying

I feel this too

When I first was experiencing OCD I felt so much fear and I felt so out of control and overwhelmed. Eventually after so much crying I felt numb this caused much fear I thought this meant I was opening up to the idea. But in all reality it’s the opposite. If your compulsions aren’t working anymore and you feel not as much fear that may be you healing. But if you still have fear and you can’t cry it’s probably because your experience numbness. This doesn’t mean you’ll do what your thinking, it just means your brain has had enough and needs a break! Much love!

Yes, though you also need to realize that doing compulsions will never work or help you in the long run. You’d old compulsions don’t work anymore because OCD is out of control and wants you to do more, and more, and more.

eventually, your mind is so used to the same kind of compulsions so it’s no longer satisfying or calming you down. which when you do compulsions, your basically pushing the problem away which builds up to make it worse when you don’t do compulsions like you used to. sitting in the thought, closing your eyes, breathing through the pain, and remembering it’s just a thought and this is just ocd. i am uncomfortable because of the uncertainty of this thought. many people struggle with this and it is scary. you’ll get through it i promise. hope this helps :)

ive been feeling like this recently too
