I need to go to church tmrw but I feel like crap... ^^ Idk if this is OCD or not but I feel like I do not fit in my own skin no matter what I do :( Yeah basically I feel like sleeping forever idk :p
Me too. I never feel comfortable.
Ugh, I feel that! I’m also just a huge homebody so it was really hard for me to learn the difference. Nowadays I’m lucky enough to get out on adventures once in awhile but it took some real commitment to recovery to get here :)
Omg. I didn’t know this could be OCD related…. Since really starting to struggle with OCD I feel like I’m never comfortable in my own skin, I never want to leave the house, always wanting to sleep, feeling like it’s easier to be alone. Does this resonate with you all too?? I used to be so social and the life of the party and I really miss that version of myself.
hey, i'm really sorry you're feeling this way. feeling out of place, especially in your own skin, is incredibly tough, and it's even harder when you've got something important like church coming up. 💔 by the way, have you heard about this new AI-powered OCD therapy tool called "unstuck?" when i was in a similar spot, feeling like i just wanted to sleep and escape, this free AI OCD therapy tool (unstuckmyocd.com/try) that my NOCD therapist recommended really made a difference. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it offers personalized support that can guide you through moments when everything feels overwhelming, kind of like having an OCD therapist in your pocket. 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
Do any other Christians on here struggle with not wanting to go to church anymore because the people there make you feel alone and unnoticed even when you try to help out on things? I used to be really into church and would go even on weekdays but now I don't. I go only on Sundays and instead of coming out feeling blessed I come out feeling depressed. I don't feel comfortable there anymore.I don't know if these negative thoughts are ocd related or just a form of spiritual warfare.
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.
I have to go to church tomorrow and I just feel so embarrassed to even step foot in there. My OCD is really based off of religion, and when I walk into a church or see a religious word or name I freak out. I feel like ik disrespecting God because of these thoughts I'm having. Any tips on how to cope with this?
