Is it possible to beat OCD?
Will there ever be a pint in my life where I can completely feel free of OCD and be semi normal?

Coming from someone who has conquered all the themes that have come my way, I can tell you with certainty that it is indeed possible. It takes time, patience, and a lot of self-love. OCD is a lifelong disorder, and it can come in waves. New themes may start up and impede on your progress, but it does not thwart your journey in the long term. There are lessons to be made of these obstacles, and they will help you mitigate and manage whatever trials you face in the future. You must face these episodes with great fortitude and understand that they are not indomitable. They will come and they will go. You will come out on top. Stay strong, OCD Radish:)
Yes, for sure! But it takes a long of work. It’s not going to be a quick fix.
YES, yes and yes.... You will know when you see your over thinking as a virtue and not an illness. You are just a special person who strive for perfection, and tries to have order and certainly in the world around them, but needs to realize that the world is not perfect, and has flaws by design. You wll learn not to suffer for the flaws of the world, and leave the flowed world suffer for its imperfect ion. Have a great weekend 😀
Just wanted to give some hope to those who are having ocd spikes, spirals and worries. This past year I have regained my life back. I went from beginning to isolate myself, being convinced by my ocd that my hobbies are bad and that I should avoid things I enjoyed, and having constant panic attacks. With the work of IOP, psychiatry and nocd, I have made great strives towards my future. I now don’t avoid things and instead embrace my life and ANY possibility that may come. Don’t let the ocd bully you. Yes, I have intrusive thoughts still but I am able to go about my day instead of obsessing over them. You can find this too. I encourage anyone on the fence to please seek help if you are in a tough time, it can literally save your life.
I’m so scared I’ll be stuck in this forever soo soo scared
I know everything im dealing with is OCD. I have accepted that, but I just feel down. I don’t want to live the rest of my life like this. I just want to be free from this horrible illness. Any positive stories and recovery journeys will help. What did recovery look like for you? I used to be so happy, I miss it so much. This feels like it’s taken everything from me. How do you just live your life despite how you feel? Any hope will help!
