I fully understand how you feel. I can bear witness to the fact that you can get your life back. OCD can be beaten. I have been with NOCD for 1 1/2 years and the counseling I have gotten from them has been a huge help. I’m 62 and I’ve had OCD since my 20’s. So I feed OCD for forty years not knowing what it was. Then it skyrocketed 2 years ago and that was when I started with NOCD. One thing I have found helpful is OCD has only one weapon. Doubt. It just takes all different forms such as “was there germs on the door knob?” “Did I just hit someone with my car?” Am I …”. It’s all doubt or “What if”. I would recommend the free 15 min. call tom NOCD. They can help you to begin the journey of recovery. The only difference between me and you is what triggers us. I know you can say “No” to OCD 👍.

I want to beat OCD because. .
I want to beat OCD because I have seen and felt the benefits of clearing my brain from unnecessary, pointless, thoughts. OCD is like 0 calorie food. It’s pointless. No nutrition or benefits come from my obsessions or compulsions. I don’t care to have answers to everything anymore. I catch myself just trying to stress myself out so that I have some worry to feed on. But like I said, it’s a 0 calorie food. I get nothing from it but wasted time and energy. My brain feels more spacious when I’m not consumed by OCD. I’m present. My personality has room to be herself without making space for bullshit. I tell myself now that worry is poison. I think Willie Nelson was the person I got that quote from? Anyways, that imagery of worries being poison for the mind has been transformative for me. I’m evolving. 💖 Thanks NOCD community.

How do I navigate my new diagnosis?
So after my ocd has become more prominent, it gets harder to fight through these compulsion’s everyday. I don’t go to therapy or take any medications and to be honest I am very lost in my journey on how to navigate life with ocd. I don’t want it to take over my life. I want to be able to feel like I can live without a weight on my chest and to finally feel like I can breathe. Any suggestions or words of advice is more than welcome.

Hopeless
I know everything im dealing with is OCD. I have accepted that, but I just feel down. I don’t want to live the rest of my life like this. I just want to be free from this horrible illness. Any positive stories and recovery journeys will help. What did recovery look like for you? I used to be so happy, I miss it so much. This feels like it’s taken everything from me. How do you just live your life despite how you feel? Any hope will help!
