Anxiety
I’ve been struggling a bit after being in the hospital for two weeks and this my first day out. Any words of encouragement would be great❤️

it’s understandable that you would be struggling! the fact you’re able to be out of the hospital shows that you are on your way up… you can absolutely do this.
@jolie27 I’m trying to be hopeful my theme is just so taboo and hard to deal with and I’m just feeling the anxiety this evening.
@Booklover19 i am sorry you are feeling like this, obviously i don’t know what your theme is but taboo thoughts are especially difficult as they are so isolating…i wish i could be more help with knowing how to relieve anxiety but im terrible at it myself. i understand your struggle though
@jolie27 It’s POCD and it can be absolutely crippling I hate it with a passion and would love to go back to feeling like normal when I was so sure of my thoughts and feelings.
first off - I can’t imagine what you are going through, I hope you are doing well and i’m wishing you a speedy recovery! being in the hospital for such a long period of time is definitely not easy so give yourself grace 🫶🏻 I have anxiety too so understand where you are coming from - take a deep breath and give yourself a day or two to settle back in. you totally got this!!
@Sky.679 It was an inpatient psych stay….my anxiety is pretty high right now because of my OCD theme and intrusive thoughts. It’s so hard to sit with these uncomfortably feelings
@Booklover19 I totally understand. You are so strong! I’m sorry you are going through this
You are strong stick to the foundation at the hospital gave you in regards to your treatment Did they give you any medication? Did they set you up with a therapist? I find that structured days work better for me. I don’t know if that’s the same for you. I think structured days help lesson the anxiety
You’re strong you got this. It took strength to go into the hospital. You are not alone
I have had suicidal OCD for over a year now. I just am struggling to fight it tonight. I just have an enormous amount of self doubt and I can’t stop wondering if I’ll ever make it through this or not. My life is great but I just feel miserable every day. Any encouragement helps. Thanks
i’m so sorry, this is a bit longer than i anticipated. for the people that struggle with periods on this app, i’ve had irregular ones all my life. the one i’m having now has been going on for almost two and a half weeks, i’m in so much pain, and i’ve bled through pants multiple times a day since i’ve been on it. i went to the gyno earlier this year for my first pap smear and tried talking to her about the problems i had previously faced. it felt like she ignored me and rushed through my appointment. i had to go ahead make another appointment with her because she could see me the soonest (since i was already established with her. every other office i called could only take me starting late june) due to the issues i stated previously. i’m extremely nervous to go because i’m scared she won’t listen to my issues like last time. i’ve also gone to the er a few times trying to figure out what’s wrong, but they all just do a blood test and an ultrasound and tell me to go home. i’m swimming in medical bills that i already can’t pay. on top of that, my ocd is getting to a point of being extremely debilitating. i tried seeing if the app would accept my insurance, but they don’t. even with a payment plan, i absolutely cannot afford to find therapy here. i’ve also tried looking at therapists near me, but it seems like none of them specialize in ocd. i live in a small town, so in a way that’s expected, but it doesn’t help my case. i’ve been feeling incredibly weak due to the blood loss and the lack of therapy. i just need some kind words to help me keep a positive attitude, because it’s been extremely hard to do so as of late.
Hi all!! Its been a while since I've been in here and typically I come on here to give advice and encouragement which i still plan to do but i really need encouragement right now. I typically deal with so-ocd but right now its taking a back seat or just disappearing ( which I'm not complaining) but now my rocd is really coming in thick and heavy and Im overly anxious but i have had panic attacks to the thoughts and its just been heavily attack me on my feelings towards my bf. I love this man with my literal whole being and I want to marry him and I know he feels the same cause we have had discussions on marriage. But lately and idk if its because of my period starting (sorry tmi) and all the hormones but i can't feel my emotions all that well, and the thoughts are constantly telling me i don't love him, i don't want to talk to him which are all false me and him are long distance rn which is hard but we push through it. I really hate these thoughts and all it makes me want to do is scream and cry. Like i said not overly anxious but definitely just want to scream and cry and of course cause Im not overly anxious my ocd picks up on that says oh see your not anxious with that so it must be true. I'm just hot mess y'all:( But anyways word of encouragement keep pushing y'all all got this and Im proud of every single one of you!!
