Me too I am suffering
Absolutely horrible nightmare day in and day out. But were strong its proven everyday, eventually we'll get through this hellish disease and be stronger and happier than ever... i hope!
Are you in ERP therapy? It will help you!!
I did a little bit of CBT not ERP yet, gonna try some hypnotherapy on the weekend.
@struggles ERP therapy is what really helps OCD.
Iām going thru the same things girl itās so hard I have religious ocd as well and itās probably the most stressful thing Iāve ever had to deal with..
Are you christian?
@Southernprincess I am
@MollyGrace - awesome so am I ! and i go through religious OCD and its god awful.
@Southernprincess Itās the worst thing Iāve ever delt with
My OCD has never been this strong, it's so real, it feels like it will never go away, it's never been this strong for me and it's very scary.
I can't live with OCD anymore. It's ruining my life. I feel like I'm being constantly bullied in my own mind all day everyday. I don't know if what I think and feel is ever real or normal or okay, what is me and what is the OCD thoughts. I don't know if any of my experiences are normal. I'm exhausted from picking apart every single conversation I ever have with anyone until I'm strung out by a vague and ambiguous feeling of guilt. I'm tired of feeling like I'm a bad person and feeling scared all the time and not knowing why and having my brain spin me out on an endless spiralling train of thoughts that never goes anywhere and just makes me feel disconnected from everything and everyone around me. I don't know what I feel and if what I feel is normal or if anything I am doing is real and actually me or if I'm 'losing my mind.' I don't even know if this makes any sense. I get into these states of mind where every thought in my head and everything I feel and perceive makes me question my own sanity. I don't know if anyone likes me because I have absolutely no concept of what I am actually like. I feel completely lost and confused CONSTANTLY.
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. Itās pointless. No nutrition or benefits come from my obsessions or compulsions. I donāt 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, itās a 0 calorie food. I get nothing from it but wasted time and energy. My brain feels more spacious when Iām not consumed by OCD. Iām 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. Iām evolving. š Thanks NOCD community.
