Feeling very hopeless
I am generally optimistic about my OCD recovery but today I am feeling very hopeless. It feels like I may never recover from it and that it’s a life long punishment.

I can relate to your thoughts of never recovering and life punishment. Sends me into depression and the why me mind set. I'm sorry I don't have any advice other than try to do the opposite of how your feeling. That's what was suggested to me last session. I struggle with my emotions. If you're feeling down look at things in a positive way. In your case try to find all the positives to look forward to. Easier said than done I know when you have negative feelings.

I think we all fall prey to the doom and exhaustion that ocd brings from time to time. It’s the nature of the beast and we are only human!! BIG HUGS AND LOVE TO ALL MY FELLOW OCDers out there!!!! We are blessed to have each other to lean on!! 🥳😍

I feel so awful and ungrateful. My partner and I are moving to a new place for which we worked very hard. There were lots of tears and sweat. Instead of being excited and grateful, here I am making it about my stupid thoughts. I guess the big move has triggered my anxiety. I don’t know what to do or how I deal with it.

Could use some advice
Struggling today with my thoughts and maybe some dissociation. I can’t get any clear thoughts. I felt like lately I’ve started to recover and then the past few days have felt so hard. I feel scared for the future. I am scared I don’t have enough hope for living with ocd. I am scared that I’m not gonna be happy. I’m scared I’ll chose to end my life over this. I’m scared I’ll want to end my life. I feel weird. My thoughts are jumbled today. Something feels like it’s going to happen and that’s what is giving me anxiety.

idk
I feel like I’ll never lead a normal life again with OCD, my thoughts have begun to be convince especially about POCD. I feel like so sad and down that this will be my life forever. I’ll never get to fall in love again without intrusive thoughts. I’ll never be worth falling in love with. I can never be intimate again. I’m just done, my life is over. I can’t even look at my nephew and niece anymore without the smile fading. It feels like I’m so nasty and then my brain convinces me this is how I feel. That there’s some part of me that is a p*do and that’s it. I’m a disgusting human being for that. I just feel hopeless
