Feeling hopeless

I feel like nothing is ever going to get better. I don't want to live anymore.

Don’t give up! Things WILL get better! You can’t see above the water now but you will and you will be so glad you made it out when you!

Hey things WILL get better. I have dealt with ocd for over 5 years now and let me tell you there were times where I couldn't do it anymore. But i got back up on my feet because you know who runs my life? ME. You know who's not going to put me down? my ocd. our ocd isn't us and I know it's REALLY hard to do but what i've done to get better is try to let the thoughts fly by. Embrace some uncertainty☀️

Things will get better! Please know you are worthy and a good person! Your OCD doesn’t define who you are!!!!

Please don’t give up! I had these same thoughts going through my head yesterday, but then I stepped back and realized that no one sees my OCD, but me. My nephew doesn’t know my struggle with POCD. He just sees me as a person he loves. My parents don’t see my harm OCD. They just see the daughter they love. We only see our OCD as ugly. We need to love that part of us, even though we hate it most days.

I’m feeling the same way and I just don’t know what to do anymore I feel so much guilt and shame tied to my POCD thoughts, sensations, urges like I honestly don’t feel like I deserve to live

i want to give up

I’ve been going through this rough patch for the last four months, and I can already feel an even worse one coming. I just feel scared. And on top of that, I’m going to stop therapy. After everything with my current therapist, I just don’t have the strength to keep trying anymore. I feel hopeless. My head hurts so much, and it’s hard to keep going when everything feels this bad. I just want to cry, hope this feeling passes, and maybe try again if it ever lets up. But right now, it feels like nothing will ever get better. I don’t feel like I can ask for help. I hate that it took me so long to realize this wasn’t the therapist for me. I was too scared of being dramatic, so I let it go on for far too long, and now I feel like I’ve just become a burden-like. I hate that I let it get to that point, especially when I was paying for this. I just want to give up. I feel broken down, and I don’t even want to be okay anymore.

My life feels impossible to continue

Everything is building up and I don’t see a way out.

Don't want to live this life

Feeling like I am a burden on my parents as well on me. No my parents never said anything like this. I just want to end this life which is full of mental suffering which can't be explained. Feeling like I will never be able to do anything in my life. I so want to go far away from these things where there will be only peace.
