Not a good day

I’m spiralling this week. My mind feels like a catalogue flicking through chapters of my life and finding bits to pick on. I’m doubting lots of different actions or events over the years and worrying if these mean I’m a terrible person. I know this is ocd but the fact they actually happened is making it really really hard to deal with. Can’t wait for this episode to pass but already scared for the next flare up as this is happening more often. Any advice welcome 🙏

For me when I’m going through an episode OCD likes to lie to me and tell me that it is permanent, or that if I don’t do what it’s telling me to do it will be. I find that stressing to myself the impermanence of any mental state begins to help me see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hope this episode concludes for you soon, I promise there is an end to it ❤️

I have had a bad two weeks. It really has felt like the end of my life many times but I suddenly have a calm and happy moment. Before two weeks ago I was generally happy and the intrusive thoughts only came once in a while. I’m hoping I can get back to that too. Let’s be strong together! 💪🏻

Spiraling

Hi all! I’ve been doing really well with my OCD, but I’ve been in a flair up the last few days and it’s so uncomfortable and distressing. It’s so hard to remember that I’m strong when OCD is so loud.

Ocd help

Can someone give me advice on how to deal with a bad ocd day please. Last night I had a bit of a bad episode with ocd looking for reassurance on here and googling and the googling didn’t help which I should of know at the start..and I’m just dealing with the aftermath of anxiety.

Advice please

I’m going through the worst ocd flare up , I can’t stop crying and feel like I’m the worst person in the world and that no one understands how it makes me feel and how I feel so alone and that I’m a horrible person. Why do I feel like everything I’ve done makes me the worst unlovable person. Why is it when I pray I’m still so sad and nothing get fixed so I can be happy. I just want to be happy and at peace and stop having these intense overpowering thoughts. I know they say it’s best to sit with the thought until it passes instead of trying to direct my self but it just won’t go away and I’m trying hard to let it pass but something will always remind me of it and bring me right back to square one. I’m just so miserable that this is my life and thought process every single day😪
