For someone looking for more hope today
For someone looking for more hope today
Hey I can relate to that sadness that is there when you begin to starve your compulsions. Check out this video on what happens to you when you begin to starve compulsions and what is the beneath all that chasing that you do when OCD is active, and how you can begin to heal from that sadness and emptiness. https://youtu.be/eYWaGym1tGQ?si=DsV3sJzkVQXsz4Jw
@YouarenotyourOCD Thank you so much!
@Kollin No problem. This video really helped me because when I started starving my compulsions, I noticed there was an emptiness and depression that I began to experience and I realized that was there but doing my compulsions and living compulsively that emptiness was beneath that.
@YouarenotyourOCD Exactly how I’m feeling , literally thank you tons
@Kollin God bless you
So true. It’s uncomfortable to stand on one’s own feet suddenly, but it’s necessary There are stages, first you don’t want to give up your compulsions (although you already have the fight strength to resist them), then you mourn you have to be „on your own“ now, you go your fist steps alone, you go back and forth. And then you gradually discover to live on your own. OCD was the worst thing in your life, but it becomes smaller.
@elliss2 Perfect explanation of what it feels like
Feeling depressed and hopeless. I just don’t believe I can get any better. Please offer some encouragement if you have any.
Hey everyone, could use some inspiration today. Having a lot of anxiety around real event and wanting to confess a possible “lie.” Sitting through most of the urges to ruminate but the anxiety is just very uncomfortable. I’m also 9 months pregnant and feeling really sick today which makes it tougher because I can’t do much moving around. Any words of hope would be awesome.
I usually post something sad, hopeless and questioning hoping people are feeling my same pain. Today I would like to hear from those with hope. Even if its just in the moment of writing this. Share so much love on this Friday. 💜💚
