Ocd can feel like a trap you can’t escape from. As some who has had pure ocd for a long time I would recommend you try hanging out with a friend or do something that makes you happy and push though the ocd and do what ever you would be doing if you were not having ocd thoughts anyway. I know ocd can be scary and stressful but if you stop doing things it will only get worse trust me. The only way to not feel trapped by ocd is to just live you’re life anyway. Ocd is hard and sometimes you will get stuck in it but please try pull yourself out by pushing though it. You can go it , stay strong
I used to drink to escape I'm sober for 8 months now I'm slowly learning to walk through the uncomfortable feelings I started going to church last year there's a saying get comfortable being uncomfortable God works in n mysterious ways
@DennisDB I am glad you are doing better , I don’t drink a lot because I am worry I would end using it as an escape for my anxiety and depression and always what to be drinking. I got drank one time and really like the feeling not have the fear from my ocd , and I liked it way to much like I wanted to drink again right away . I stoped myself. I don’t know if it’s normal for people with OCD to have habits that they want to keep doing things over and over again but I’m the kind of person that once I start using Chapstick I just want to keep using it like 59 times a day or something ridiculous.  I don’t know it’s like you can easily get addicted to stuff.
Oh yes it's normal I obsessed over using beard oil! What scent to wear or how many bottles I have OCD affect all aspects of life even the most insignificant thing
I’m all alone
I think I might start panicking or something man…..it’s been a while since I actually started to become worried a lot over intrusive thoughts. I planned on doing homework for my summer classes today but I can’t seem to right now. I can’t concentrate. goooossshhhh I hate this
I need to move out. I need to leave. I want to get an apartment. I'm home from college and am trying to make money. I don't have enough to move out. My parents don't tolerate me standing up to them, they want to keep me a child locked up in a tower. I'm trying to get a second job and no places are responding to me. So no money to fly the coop. Oh my gosh, I can't do this anymore, I'm at the end of my rope, I hate my parents so much. I FEEL SO TRAPPED
