I’m so sorry that you’re going through all that Brynnie, remember that you CAN do it and you are strong and will pull through. Know that there are people who can help you, talk to a parent maybe/teacher/adult you trust/OCD therapist. OCD can be very distressing so know that you are not alone at all, many others are going through similar experiences.
No one can do the work for you. You need to CHOOSE to take people’s advice on here. No one can force you to do things—and OCD isn’t forcing you to do or not do something either.
When I’m feeling really bad, I remind myself that feelings are temporary. They will pass, as sure as the earth is spinning. And it’s okay to feel your feelings. Journaling often helps me. What can you do to help yourself feel better?
I feel like no one cares about me... Im struggling in college and it just feels like I cant catch a break... Ive made bad choices that make me a bad person... I have to be uncertain about worst case POCD scenarios that may or may not have happened unknowingly... I genuinely dont feel like any one cares about me... and if I pass away, ill be laughed at and forgotten by everyone... Im alone with no gf, barely any friends, and I cant even be certain that my POCD fears of unknowingly cybering with a minor did or didnt happen... im stuck in hell...
feel really down like i'll never be able to live my life i feel i'm never truly happy i just have to get by i feel stuck ive had loads of therapy cbt nothing will ever really help me 😞
Hi everyone, I’m reaching out here because I know this community understands the daily battles of living with OCD. Recently, I hit a really dark place and tried to take my own life. It’s been hard to admit, but I’m still here, and I’m trying to find a way forward. OCD feels relentless sometimes—the intrusive thoughts, the constant doubt, the cycles that never seem to end. It became so overwhelming that I didn’t see a way out. I know I need help, and I’m working on reaching out to professionals, but I also wanted to connect here. To those who’ve been in a similar place: What helped you keep going? How do you manage the darkest moments when OCD takes over? I feel like I’m holding on by a thread, but I’m holding on. Any advice, words of encouragement, or personal experiences would mean so much to me right now. Thank you for reading this, and for being part of a space where we can be honest about our struggles.
