@Anonymous And by normal I mean I felt like my usual self

@Anonymous You are feeling normal everyday, but the ocd wont let you notice it, if you look closely you will see there is nothing new and scary, all was there from the beginning, you used to get angry, you used to feel upset and sad, nothing new, its just the ocd making it scary

@Anonymous Anxiety is really frustrating and tiring, but we will get through this, always communicate and talk, love you

@blazed This is great to hear, well i’ve been suffering since a year, sometimes i’m good sometimes i’m not, but we will hold on until we see the light

@Warrior961 Same here, I’ve been struggling for a year now and some days are really hard. Healing is a tough process but it does gets better 🫶

@arielcerda Lets have a talk then !

@Warrior961 i feel like my life is over and that my family around me life is over as well i can’t find anything positive in life anymore. i feel like i’ll never recover and that deep down this is truly who i am and that one day the thoughts will take over or that i’ll just agree with them some day or just black out or have a maniac episode and my thoughts will become reality. it’s exhausting waking up everyday and having absolutely no peace

@arielcerda Well ariel, close your eyes, let the thought comes, what is the thought ? Let it comes to your head, and walk with it until the end, i don’t know if it’ll make you feel better when i tell you i felt exactly the same, scared of the urges and all the feelings, but surprisingly you always tell yourself but what if this time, what if i did it this time, and what about the hundreds of times that you didn’t do it ? You forgot about it,

@arielcerda This is called peak anxiety performance right here, its scary and overwhelming, but you are not crazy and you are not gonna act upon your thoughts, maybe you imagine that you are acting upon your thoughts while crying and shaking bc you don’t wanna do it but you gave up, its all a scary movie ariel, be stronger and let the thoughts come !!

@Warrior961 i guess i never thought of it that way. i will remind myself of this:)

@Warrior961 thank you so much:)) it really means a lot that you replied

@arielcerda You are more than welcome, journal, and keep talking, i always share tips about anxiety and ocd on twitter, follow me there

@Warrior961 what is your twitter?

@Amanda Denholm Lollll you are absolutely funny 😂😂, and how are you managing your anxiety ?

@Warrior961 At this stage anxiety is like white noise to me. I find it soothing. It’s basically the nicest thing I have going on. Also I’ve been here in the ER for two hours just to see a doctor who confirmed I needed x-ray (I came in with a prescription for that!!) and told me I’m gonna have to wait a lot more, so I told him that I get panic attacks stating to long in these facilities for too long and if I could just wait outside. He rudely replied: tough luck buddy either you stay where I tell you to stay or go home without x-ray. I really can’t wait until he’s don and then I will X-ray his ass with my foot.

@Warrior961 alright cool thanks again! i feel a little better

@arielcerda You will feel more better with time, hit me up whenever you need to talk
