Mentally Exhausted

I’m so tired of mentally reviewing a certain event and worrying whether or not I’m actually a good person. What if I’m a horrible person and it’s not actually ocd? Every time I feel slightly happy I feel guilty and horrible. I’m graduating high school in a month and also going to prom soon. I want to enjoy those things but I feel like my ocd won’t let me. I’m going to college which I am SO excited for, but once again my ocd is holding me back. I just wish I can take a break from my mind for a day. Not even for a day, just for an hour. I’m so tired but I refuse to give up.

i relate to this a lot. i graduate next week and have all these deadlines to meet before then but i feel like my thoughts are taking up all my time to actually get things done. ive really needed a break from my brain too and i keep trying to find healthy ways to do that. one way ive found is drawing/coloring. i also find exercise helps distract me from those similar thoughts about being a bad person 🫂

hey, i really feel for you. it sounds incredibly tough to be caught in that cycle of doubt and guilt, especially with such big, exciting life events on the horizon like graduating and going to college. 💔 it's super admirable that you're not giving up, even when things get really hard. by the way, have you heard about this new AI-powered OCD therapy tool called "unstuck?" when i was in a similar spot, feeling overwhelmed by my thoughts and doubts, this free AI OCD therapy tool (unstuckmyocd.com/try) that my NOCD therapist recommended really made a difference for me. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it's designed to provide personalized, step-by-step support for exactly these kinds of situations - when OCD tries to make you doubt your worth or your ability to enjoy life's big moments. it works a bit like having an OCD therapist in your pocket, guiding you through those tough times. i hate when people promote stuff, but i really think it can help you because it's changed my life. lmk if you have Qs or just want to talk more! <3

I don't think i can make it

Im so tired. I don't know how will i feel better. I tried everything but i feel so bad. My heart hurts and i can't breathe. I feel stressed for no reason. Im so tired. Im really tired of everything. I want to pray without stress. I want to be in a relationship, be a healthy and good partner without stress. Im so tired. Is it normal for OCD to be active for EVERYDAY? What if i upset, use, idealize, hurt, be obsessed, cheat my partner? What if i can't stay loyal to God and be a bad servant? Or what if God takes my partner away from me? Relationship and religious ocd, but sometimes pure, meta, s.o and more. This shit is taking my life away and i can't stand that anymore. I can't do it. I can't get a therapist. It's so expensive. No one here to help me. I feel like the worst servant, worst partner and worst daughter, sister in the world. I want to accept myself but OCD makes me feel like i don't deserve to live. Im so tired. I can't even look at enviroment. I walk by looking at FLOOR because everyone and everything triggers me. I feel so horrible. I always feel like something bad will happen or something is wrong. I misrecognizing my partner or others because of OCD. OCD makes me feel like everyone hates me. Even writing here makes me feel guilty for no reason.

Vent post: Graduating + OCD

i feel like im being crushed by the weight of deadlines and my thoughts. i have so much to do in the next 3 weeks and i feel so distracted by my brain. i just got diagnosed with OCD and it feels good to put a name to all these endless thoughts i have. i think so much and never get a break and on top of it im so overwhelmed by assignments i feel paralyzed (i have adhd, too). even when i do things i enjoy my brain still somehow thinks of something to ruin the moment. 🫠

Depression Anxiety and OCD

I feel like my body and mind are just so tired of being stuck in these same mental loops of torment with OCD and don’t know how to do anything else. I feel exhausted from not being able to cure myself out of these thoughts and self-destructive habits and that I’m not going to make it out of them because I’ve been tied down to this illness for so long. I wish things could have been different growing up and I took care of myself better so I wouldn’t have gotten so negative and loved myself more so these thoughts wouldn’t be so potent. I’ve had OCD most of my life, and I just don’t get how other people can live their lives normally and not suffer so heavily. I get really mad knowing I’m stuck in this vicious cycle and other people can enjoy life so easily. And now the summer is coming and it’s when I get the most depressed and feel so helpless from sadness, and my OCD has only just gotten worse. I feel like I just don’t have the energy to take care of myself anymore, and hate how anxious I am about actually telling people what’s going on with me in fear of judgment and not accepting me, so I just go along with self-sabotaging habits. I’m also afraid that nobody is going to want to help me. This only makes things worse, and it’s really hard for me to be happy. I just don’t know how to cope anymore. It makes it so hard to function as a human since I’ve been struggling for so long. I feel so disconnected from God because of this illness, and it only makes me more upset with myself for lack of effort and feel depressed. Please if someone is struggling with something similar or has advice, reach out ❤️
