Personally I find the riddle of it all is embracing everything that makes me who I am that is the sum of the good the bad and the indifferent only then can I have peace . Accepting of the whole thing , everything is exactly as it should be for many including the many hardships.

I’ve been through exactly what you’re going through and you’re not alone. I don’t know if you’re looking for advice but something that helps me is to remember that feeling like this is temporary. I know it doesn’t feel that way right now especially when you’re feeling awful all the time but it does get better. Remember that you’re here to get help and you should be proud of yourself for seeking it. Some days are going to be worse than others but the good moments will come, I promise.

I get how you feel this disorder is fucking horrible and it’s extremely hard to cope with, I don’t want to cope with it at all, I’m going through the same thing as you. I wish I could offer advice on how to fix this because I really do get how fucking draining and exhausting this shit show of a disorder is but I don’t know how to help myself either, I just wanna let you know your not alone though and that I’m hoping you can some day overcome yours

Everyday I wake up, all my mind makes me think of is the stuff I’ve done in the past, like all day I’m in a constant cycle of judging who I used to be and it hurts so so much. I wish I never thought to do those things, I wish I had been more mature than how I was before, it’s really lowering my self worth and I don’t think I’ve ever felt this miserable before, like last summer was the worst because I was dealing with this shit, I about almost ended my life over it, and I thought it would get better, which it did, but it didn’t last but for a while. As soon as it became 2025 I was going through it again, having constant cycles of “I’m a good person” to “I’m the worst person imaginable” and I’m so sick of it because I just want to feel like the good person l like to imagine myself to be, but I can’t because of shit I did in the past that I obsess over. I’ve cried and screamed so much over it and it seems like it will never leave me.

So hard to not engage the thoughts because even though it's from the "past" (i don't even know if im remembering things correctly and it kills me) and i can't change it, I just NEED to prove it to myself that it didn't happen this way. If you'd asked me questions maybe a few months ago, I would have been able to lucidly explain things. Now I just feel like I'm in a constant swarm of thoughts, not knowing if anything is real. If my brain is to be trusted. Wish I could just get hypnosis to forget

I'm going through a rough time. I used to think medication would brighten my world, but if anything, it's muted it. The physical anxiety is less, and I felt okay(ish) for a while, but things are getting bad again. I'm so afraid I'll never get to a point where I feel safe in my body and in my mind. Today is the first day I've cried in... I don't know how long. But I didn't feel the relief I thought I would. Initially, I did, but it morphed into dread, and now I'm sitting by myself, trying not to panic. I really want to begin seeing a therapist for OCD, but I don't know how much my insurance covers. There's just so much on my mind right now. A whole bunch of old themes are resurfacing. I wish I could've been given a different path in life. I'm trying to stay strong. It's just really difficult. I feel like I'm being sent back to square one :(
