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!

I don't think I can handle my ocd anymore
I can't stop thinking about ending my life. I feel like I'm not even living, I'm just surviving. Everyone is capable of being a person and functioning and I'm just stuck here avoiding everything. My psychiatrist said my ocd is severe and it will all take time and I'll start erp and I'm already on medication but I just feel so depressed and like I won't be able to handle erp and it's already too late for me. I feel inhuman, it's debilitating. My major theme is just fear or contamination, I can't even make myself a meal I can't touch anything in the kitchen. I get stuck in the shower for 2 hours and when I don't shower because I'm depressed I feel like a walking germ. My hands are a mess, my school work is shit, I avoid and avoid and I'm just so tired of "living" like this. My psychiatrist said they don't have any therapists available right now like.... excuse me? What do you mean u don't have any 😭 I honestly don't even know why I'm typing this becuase nothing helps, nothing ever will. I'm so deep into this I can't get out, my room looks like shit, I can't live in this body anymore, I really can't. I let everyone down, I am and will be such a dissapointment. I don't have any dreams or goals or passions I just wasn't made to be here. I don't know how or who to ask for help like there's nothing anyone can do, I'm already on meds. I can't keep being like this, seeing everyone judge me for acting insane.

Can someone help
My ocd is going off the hinges. I can’t stop thinking God is angry at me and hates me and it’s weird. And can’t stop thinking everyone hates me. I can’t stop thinking that no matter what I try I’ll never get better. This sucks
