Suffering
I’m so sad all the time and struggle with s*icidal ideation because of my ocd,I think about it all the time I’m in so much pain and therapy isn’t helping.

I’m rookie of this app from taiwan, and i am suffering from ocd for half year. Most of them is about sth i have done and that may “barely”lead to some tragedy. I knew it barely happened but my mind doesn’t agree with it, my mind always show the most awful results to me, like somebody’s death. And an hour ago I suddenly think what if some day I can’t afford the pain from OCD and choose to s*icide, this thought make me soooo scared, I’m with you, we can get better together. Btw my English may not so good.
Are you doing ERP therapy? This type of therapy can feel like it's not working initially this is usually the brain readjusting. Keep moving forwards no matter how slowly or how small the steps are. Each step gets you closer to recovery. You've got this! If you're concerned about treatment talk to your therapist about it, there maybe something they could help you with. 🙏
@Claire Thompson UK No I’m not doing ERP
@lina_.m Which therapy are you doing CBT?
I want to let you know who ever is reading this that God loves you so much. I understand how hurtful and hard OCD can be, as I go through it as well. Please feel free to vent, whichever you’re comfortable with and what ever is needed or have any questions about the Lord. Your lives are so worthy and you’re important as well as cared for. If you’re alright with it, could I share some scripture with you or recommend. If I could help any of you.
