If only I could just say "stop" a million times without looking like my mind had snapped (which I think it had already), I would've done so already. At least, that's how it felt. Part of the symptoms is feeling like there is no end, every time you think, "I'm going to be fine, I'm finally going to be free," no, it just doesn't happen and probably makes it worse. So, after years of worry after worry, I've come to understand that the worry doesn't go away, but just because it doesn't go away means it's bad for you - it's attaching that" bad meaning" and the "I should not be worried about this, this is so weird" is what makes it pervasive.

So much of conquering this illness is accepting this is how your mind works but trying not to attach meaning to that and moving forward in spite of your feelings. Everything I have seen seems to point to learning to accept these thoughts but pushing through them which eventually makes them less painful and eventually they fade out of mind. It’s hard because you cannot think about them fading you just need to practice accepting them and then eventually they fade on their own. You can do it! Recovery is possible for each and every one of us! Just keep trying to accept the thoughts and not assign meaning!

Im only 20 and Ive been crying. I am not diagnosed with OCD yet but it lines up. I'm so scared its not, these physical sensations and urges are so horrible and I just wanna hide myself from this earth. It feels so real. I'd rather not feel any arousal than experience it, no matter if its something I like or not. I want to be free from this hell.
