I cannot help but feel exhausted as I go through life. It feels like I've lost the spark in me. And I'm pushing myself for no cause.

i feel this so much :( before my ocd flared up i was doing great, got in my first relationship, and was on a roll with my current hyperfixation... but when it hit, it made me so depressed and anxious i can no longer enjoy any of my hobbies or interests, and no matter what i do there is always a sense of unease... it has been months and i have considered giving up but we all need to hang in there! ocd is a demon and no matter how strong it seems we cant let it win. sending you a virtual hug.
I've felt that way before many times. OCD can take away your motivation for life and carrying on. I pray that you'll be able to find inner peace with God as you carry on through this struggle. Don't give up friend. Surrender all of your cares and worries to God and He will sustain you and be your helper and friend in the storm. God bless. :)
I’m really sorry you’re feeling this way. That sounds so heavy, and I just want you to know that it’s okay to feel this way. Life can be exhausting, and it makes sense that you’re feeling drained. But these feelings won’t last forever; they come and go, just like thoughts do. Sometimes, we just have to take a break, sit with our feelings, and care for ourselves a little extra. No matter how it feels right now, you are still here, and that matters.
Thank you. I needed to hear that.
@Lost&Found I hope you have a better day tomorrow.❤️
@AnonymityK I wish you the same.
My mental health is declining due to ocd. It’s like a huge mix between ocd episode and depression wave. I feel weak and hopeless. I wanna cry. I’m exhausted . I feel like I’ve lost myself again.
I don’t know if it’s worth it to keep going. I have so many diagnoses, so little support, and constant struggles with finding the right medication. My immune system is weak, I have multiple deficiencies, and I’m dealing with so many physical health problems on top of severe OCD. It’s just too much. On top of everything, my family treats me so not okay. Every single day is a fight just to keep going—to wake up, to eat, to take care of myself even a little. I’ve lost over ten pounds in the last two weeks from how depressed I’ve been. And instead of support, all I get is blame. My family constantly throws my struggles in my face, calling me selfish, as if I’m choosing this. I am trying so hard to push past all of this. But after five long months of severe OCD, anxiety, depression, panic disorder, and everything else making life unbearable, I am exhausted. And to be called lazy? Selfish? *Worthless*? How am I supposed to keep going when the people around me refuse to see how hard I’m trying? I don’t want this anymore. None of this suffering feels worth it. What am I fighting for just to be treated this way by my own family? To be yelled at for the look on my face, when my face reflects nothing but the stress, panic, and despair I’m drowning in? Am I still supposed to smile for them? This isn’t fair. No one should have to live like this. I don’t deserve to be treated this way, I’m really trying to keep going, but I just want everything to end.
Everything is building up and I don’t see a way out.
