I feel the same way! My intrusive thoughts and compulsions make me feel so distant and weird compared to everyone else. They make me feel unlovable at times. Asking for reassurance ("Am I even worth being loved,") is, unfortunately, one of the things that feeds our OCD, so instead, I BEG you to practice self-love and compassion. Recognize for yourself that your OCD doesn't make you any more neurotic than the average person. Please. And seek therapy if you can. Best of wishes! ♡⸜(˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝

Been there. Felt like a piece of meat. I still don't know if I'm worth of loved. beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, maybe love is the same too. As for the comment saying you're way too neurotic and don't want to ruin anyone's life, I get that fear but it's their choice isn't it if they want to be with you? I'm guessing they'll know the risks and weigh it up over time. Don't go listing all your flaws to someone on a first date though. Had that happen 😅

Hi , I used to feel the same way back when my ocd was at its worst. Therapy has truly changed my life for the better. I want to remind you (without offering you too much reassurance) that you are a good person, ocd knows what to say and think to make you think opposite. I hope one day this can be but a bad memory and you can truly feel loved and happy, until then keep trying to live your life and live by your values 💗💗💗🤍🤍🤍😊😊😊

You're loveable, and hey if you're beautiful, You're beautiful you can't help that. I felt unlovable for years. it's that OCD. Mark Dejesus wrote a book. "God loves me and I love myself." He's a life coach for OCD. He suffers from Scrupulosity as well as ROCD.

Just a little something I have learned on this OCD journey. The 2 greatest commandments are love God with all your heart, soul and "mind". I believe trying to get better with OCD is loving God with our minds. And 2nd commandment is love your neighbor as yourself. You have to love yourself first in order to love your neighbor, it's a commandment. So God does love us but He wants us to love ourselves. (And I did not come up with this I just can't remember who to give credit to.)
