Please help
I want to be happy and not be miserable and I feel like I try to help others be happy but I can’t get myself to be happy 😢

Can you apply the things you do to make others happy to yourself? Also, I have also wanted to be happy but I realize that no one’s happy all the time. What I try to be now is a person who can handle emotions. I’ve been monitoring my emotions through this free app. It might give you insight. https://howwefeel.org/
I also struggle with making myself happy. I think that Has to do some with your Ocd makes you compare yourself and other things that make you want to isolate yourself and feel depressed and worthless.  When you feel this way, makes you feel depressed and it makes it hard for you to have the energy or be motivated to do things you want to do it’s like you’re stuck in this cycle.
I am very sad. I have obsessive thoughts from night to morning or in a week. I am scared. I am 23 years old now. I have been suffering from obsessive thoughts for eight years. I am not from a rich family. Please someone help me. I can't do anything because the thoughts don't make me progress. I have no friends at university. No one talks to me.Help me, help me, please.
This app is too flooded with posts and not enough people returning help. I really need it like. I’m sorry to be a nuisance but literally nobody else understands OCD & how debilitating it is. I’m so tired. So so tired.
I genuinely can't help but feel irredeemable over every little mistake made or regret I've had. It's so up and down, but I just miss the certainty. Knowing "this is who I am." I'm so disconnected from myself. Like, I'm really, really trying. Today is really rough... I got triggered the other night, and it's been hell since. I've been fighting seeking reassurance. I want it so, so incredibly bad, but I know it won't help me :( Some days, I just don't want to be here. It's funny because yesterday I felt amazing until I got triggered. I just immediately spiraled after that. I don't know. Does it genuinely get better? Will therapy really help me? Sometimes, I think maybe this is the best it'll get, and that scares me. Sorry for the vent. I'm just feeling so overwhelmingly anxious right now. I can't even cry (due to Zoloft). It feels claustrophobic somehow, having all these emotions trapped inside of my body with nowhere to go 😭
