It won't feel like this forever, things always change in life. I'm sorry to hear you're going through this right now, take care
It gets better. Trust me. Iām having a bad day myself today with OCD. It all feels so real and true but I know it will get better it always does. Sit with anxiety sit with the uncomfortable feelings. Donāt engage in any compulsions I know itās easier said than done but it is the way out of all of this
I've been where you are many times in the past, and probably will again sometime in the future. But it's true, things will get better; probably not in the short-run, if I'm honest, and probably not in the long-run either, but they will in the medium-run, and for now, that's enough for me. (I actually stole that from John Green who also has OCD. I recommend watching his videos on his Blog Brothers YouTube channel if you haven't already. He's actually helped me a lot). I also recommend getting an animal companion if you can and praying if you can, since both of those things have helped me a lot too, not necessarily with OCD but with coping.
I honestly don't know how to fix myself. All these terrible feelings and overwhelming thoughts constant is exhausting im so tired of it all I really just want it all to end any means nessecary. And yesterday I actually made that decision and then I overthinked it, not to not do it. But what I wanted people to know or feel. And I had to tell them before I go. So I tired with my girlfriend, I guess I was not subtle at all probably because I was honestly at the really emotional stage of my brain cycle at that point and so we both were breaking down and she was panicking and I felt bad I was doing that to her but I didn't wanna lie and reassure her but she wouldn't calm down and kept saying how much it'd hurt her and that she'd do it to. Eventually I realized I have to stay alive for her for now at least (till she dumps me) but deciding that doesn't make the thought stop. So if anyone knows how to do that I'd appreciate it. I can't keep dealing with this cycle of feelings of numbness then overwhelming emotions and derelization, and depersonalization, the thought of how I really want it all to end, is there constantly. But I made a promise and I'm trying to keep it.
Iām so sick of this disorder I really am. Iām failing school because I havent gone in 5 days because of ocd, im sick right now but I could easily go to school if I wanted to, itās not because Iām sick, itās because Iām genuinely afraid to go out, I did a exposure by going to a fair two days ago and it was genuinely fucking horrible, I donāt feel like it helped me. Iām gonna go to school tomorrow but Iām just terrified and I know Iām gonna be miserable and itās gonna flare up horribly. I donāt want to accept or cope with the fact I have ocd. I donāt want to be ok with my thoughts, why should I have to be ok with my thoughts to get better? Why was I made this way? Why canāt I just be normal? I donāt want to accept the fact I have horrible disgusting thoughts why should I? It makes me feel disgusting and sick. I just really wish I wasnāt dealing with this. I donāt want to die I just wish I was different, so different. Iām so sick of this. I know my past wasnāt my fault but I feel sick and disgusted and like Iām a sick fuck who should be killed or put in jail. I really canāt take it anymore i just want to be ok. I know what it feels like to be happy I just donāt know how to get back there. I was doing so good for 3 weeks. Not a single intrusive thought or urge. I was genuinely happy and now I feel horrible. I donāt want to live like this or be ok with it I just canāt itās never gonna end why is it fair that I have to live like this?
