What if vent
What if I get stuck in an obsessive loop where people don’t understand me and they get annoyed instead of supportive

This is intended to be helpful. To the extent possible do not expect anyone to be supportive it is not their responsibility. By accepting that it actually takes much of the dread out of your situation. Everyone is dealing with something some better , some worse than your issues. Hang in there.
I have been having this feeling a lot lately. Feeling like I don’t deserve love or affection because I am such a burden on others. I have kept my thoughts and perseverations so secretive that I have just been struggling alone for years. I feel like I can’t be honest with others because I too feel like I am being annoying, repetitive, and a burden. I empathize with you, and I’m sorry you’re feeling this way.
Having ocd is a nightmare. I feel so alone. Most of society doesn’t understand it and it feels so awful. I feel like sometimes I don’t have anyone I can really vent to because no one truly gets it. My family and husband are supportive but I feel like they just don’t truly get it.
Hi All, How do people in this community deal with having no one to talk to when needing to cope with depression or anxiety? I’ve tried talking to my family and friends, but they’re all sick and tired of me and my OCD. Every time I try to bring up my concerns, they just shut me down with “Stop the OCD!”, “Go away!”, or just ignore me completely. I know this support group exists for this, but realistically, I can’t come here every time I have something I want to talk about. I’m not sure what else to try, I’ve lost all my friends and now losing family members. I’ve even tried warning them “what I’m about to say is triggering” but that just makes it worse.
Whenever i have some trauma or i am going through a very hard phase of life or people's behaviour upset me, i just want someone to talk about it. Is this also a part of ocd or it just means that i need emotional support? I really want someone to listen to me without telling me i am wrong. Sometimes people hurt me too much and then they just act like they did nothing and i am overreacting. This made me an ocd patient that made me thinking all the time why someone just don't understand me and put themselves in my shoes for a while so they would feel how i feel but i have learnt something in my life that nobody can genuinely understand your pain unless they have been through the same. I just want open communication on everything to be clear. My mind gets confuse.
