It’s never too late to turn around!! I’ve fell back countless times and felt the same way, but as a professional taught me “No matter how far you stick your foot through the door, it’s never too late to take it right back out”. ocd is a LIAR!! The truth is that you are not your thoughts and it’s never too late to get back on track! Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get right back to running brother! You’re doing so much better than you think you are… so good that slipping and doing just one compulsion makes you cringe. The road to victory isn’t a straight line, there’s going to be bumps, turns, and curbs on the way there… but I’ll pray as soon as I send this that Jesus will show you you can get right back on track and keep fighting. Your story is going to inspire so many others, just don’t give up!!🫶🏼
@Cody This was a beautiful message thank you!!!
@httpet God put that on my heart to share with you. I may not know you, but I know enough to love you and I’m praying for you!! Fight on, you’re a WARRIOR✊🏻
@Cody Thank you!!! You as well 💪🏼💪🏼
The better you are doing, the meaner OCD gets
@Anonymous This☝️💯💯💯
Amen Cody!!
I did the same thing last night and spiraled… I felt so disappointed in myself but i am back and better today. Remember everyday is a chance for a fresh start, so you got this!
@mtkenumb You’re right, thank you for your kind words 💪🏼💪🏼
Feel guilty for not giving into compulsions like rumination and confessing? I feel guilt for having an intrusive thought, trying to shrug it off or just giving it a few seconds of thought and moving along. This sounds like improvement but I still struggle with the anxiety and the guilt. The shame. I’ll be okay and then I’ll remember I have OCD and my stomach will drop and I just want to curl up and cry.
I just realized that I have this compulsion where i search ocd forums up and down, looking for someone describing the exact scenario/event that im obsessing over right now. Otherwise it’s like i cant convince myself that it really is ocd. Its so stupid because even if I find what I am looking for, I know it is only giving me temporary relief. I was just about to post a description of the theme/scenario here, but I am proud that I stopped myself ⭐️
Help me! I acted on a compulsion and now I feel like want to keep doing it. I’m scared. I had been doing okay for these past two days but idk. What should I do?
