Tired
Anyone else wish that people understood what OCD does to us and why its so hard for us to breathe or act or think like them? Its rough.

Yep. Always a pain to explain to someone what ocd is. Especially more taboo themes because they might say something that will make you spiral

@Fruitsnacks People also just think its regular anxiety which is nuts. Like no to treat this I need to do the opposite of what you would do for GAD

Agreed. my partner doesn't have a worry in the world about ANYTHING and while this is a really nice balance at times, its so frustrating because its hard to explain that i could do something yesterday that i cant do today and i might be able to do tomorrow and YES its because of this one other thing that happened that has nothing to do with it but thats just how it is right now. or that i now have a new rule for myself that came out of nowhere. OR that im frustrated at myself for the way i have shifted things to make them harder and the guilt i now feel that something he wants to do i can no longer do with him.

@Alison_cox Thats how I feel with my boyfriend, he is also very chill and nonchalant. I unfortunately am a squirrel on crack like 85% of the time

@wafflemonster I’m convinced he’s gonna leave me every other day because I’m like “why is he putting up with any of this”

@Alison_cox I struggle with asking if he loves me because what if one day he says no because I’m just so much to deal with. Sucks to be us, but I totally understand you mamas ❤️❤️🩹

I really wish yall would actually help.
This app is too flooded with posts and not enough people returning help. I really need it like. I’m sorry to be a nuisance but literally nobody else understands OCD & how debilitating it is. I’m so tired. So so tired.

Are we mentally disabled?
I know that sounds a bit harsh, but people with OCD think very differently then everyone else and we do strange things. I used to think OCD was just that we overthink to much and have compulsions to fix it, but its kinda alot more than that i realise. Like peoples lives are legit debilitated from this thing. Thats serious and i dont think others realise that. Mabye im concerned too much idk.

feeling misunderstood
Having ocd is so incredibly exhausting and depressing- my mom and dad argued with me for over an hour talking about how im a pain to be around, go in too many loops, and ruin everything and everyones mood… this conversation started with me saying im stressed out because of school and that i dont want to go because im exhausted- and idk if this is like ocd directly but it takes me like 2 hours to get ready in the morning because i need to look PERFECT and the same everyday literally 😭 and that process feels so exhausting every morning at 6am but i will NOT go to school without going through with it- i will literally be crying and shaking and wanting to go home the minute i get to school if even a single strand of my hair is not perfectly straightened or any blemishes or flaws are showing- and i cant even walk to school or anything bc im scared the humidity will mess with my hair and everything- and it just really affects my life? And yeah its freaking exhausting. And i have two more years of highschool and I dont know if im going to make it 😭i get super stressed over grades too because i need them to be extraordinary otherwise its a fail. Nothing below 95%. And thats also tiring! 😁 and my mom told me today “medication IS NOTTTT AND OPTION!!!” Like oh okay so im just cooked 😭 and therapy isnt really helping me at all- i feel like what im being told is so basic and generic and it doesn’t help me when im in a huge ocd episode- which is often… and what i hate most is like my mom says “don’t come to me with your problems after 6pm…” im sorry i cant schedule my feelings 😭 im so tired
