Feeling so weird

I been feeling so weird. Feel like I can’t move on in life. Can’t even think of how it will be if I got married and have kids. I feel so sad.

That is how I felt for a very very long time! It got to the point where I didn’t do anything for myself and I didn’t better my future and now I regret it all but now I am in therapy and I’m learning to create a safe space wishing myself to allow myself to figure out these feelings and remind myself they are feelings and to take the lessons from these feelings instead of making decisions based off these feelings….it’s hard and it’s a long recovery but it’s so worth it. I hope you find the peace and help you deserve and know that these feelings are uncomfortable and that they should not be normalized in your every day life. You deserve more than what you give to yourself! You are worthy of anything and everything

@anonymous700 Thank you, I needed this so much! Did you get past feeling like this? How long did it take you and what steps did you take?

@Audrey/33 Well I still feel like that at times. It takes a lot of therapy, self compassion, and patience. It also helps if you have a great support system and ppl you feel safe around. It took me a long time to get the help I needed but I am finally going to therapy. There aren’t really steps I mean there are but everyone’s steps are different. And for me, I learn the steps as I go. But the very first step really in everyone’s case too is realizing that you need help and then finding how to get help

Hope for peace

Thanks for sharing, Audrey. I commend you for taking the steps to get help. It's not easy. ERP is not easy either but it is doable and it is the current best method for managing OCD. The keyword there is managing because unfortunately OCD is for life but we are able to manage it and live peacefully and do the things we want to do in life. There is no set time limit for how long it takes to feel that you are doing better and OCD waxes and wanes at different times so just keep at it and you'll get to a better place. I just know it :)

@SamL Thank you Sam. I’m having a rough day and moments like this make me feel like I will always feel this way.

@Audrey/33 I totally get that and it's sadly very common but there is hope and real life experiences that you can manage it and get to a better place sustainably :)

I feel pretty bad

I genuinely feel like this terror inside myself, like this is my last day till everything gets horrible… idk suddenly I have this anxiety this “fear of nothing” makes me feel like I’m not gonna make it, that I will never feel okay and that my life is over. I’m scared, I’m always scared

Feeling lost :(

So i started to feel like a lesbian again and that i have to be one. I dont want to be one. I just dont. But being straight feel like a lie now. I question my whole life, my feelings and everything. The biggest indicator of this must be that i will be slowly 21 year old and ive never dated anyone and i dont really find anyone attractive and i dont even know if i truly was attracted to someone and im scared of relationships i might have trauma or have anxious avoidant attachment. Help me. I do feel lost. Really lost. I dont know who am I anymore. I feel like that i must have been gay my whole life now. I feel like an alien. I sometimes feel like 2 people are living inside of me.😞😞😞

Horrible anxiety

I have deep anxiety about marriage. I don’t know why I feel so scared of it we decided to push it off anyway without thinking abt any sort of set dates etc. I get a weird feeling when I think about it I don’t get excited like I should and I’m terrified
