Scared to leave my home

Oh my god its so sad. I hope you are safe.🫂❤️

I feel you on this ❤️ sending lots of love.

I feel you on this. Especially with what happened a few days ago, it just goes to show that people can get away with murder and there’s no repercussions. It feels difficult just to function at work with all of this happening in the world right now. Wishing you the best 💜

fear is a powerful powerful thing and with the way the world is it makes sense and is understandable for many walks of life to be feeling it right now. As a mother with OCD and being the mother of two children in gay relationships and one that is trans it is scary to see some of the injustice and cruelty that humans will inflict on one another, but that’s not the whole world there is still good out there. The only thing I have recently found to over come my fear of them being out in the world when all I want to do is protect them is seeking out the good, and the kindness that people are showing, in times such as these. The monk peace walk, especially has given me so much Hope that the world truly does wanna be a better place. You can find them on TikTok if social media is something that you still have in your life. Just go to the search bar and type in “walk for peace” and you should see many videos. I was instantly brought to tears with a smile on my face being reassured that there still is beauty in this world. I would never tell anyone to pretend that what is happening is not, but I would say to see both sides and know that there is another one that’s not so unsettling but comforting. I wish everyone nothing but the best in times like these. We will come out on the other side and see better days.

Oh, I wish I could give you a big hug... It's terrifying :( especially how our government tries to villainize their own citizens. It's insane. This isn't a fear ANYONE should have to experience. One of the things that puts me more at ease is seeing how people in these communities are showing up for others (and those affected by it). It's just a small light in all of those chaos, but it's reassuring to know that people care, and that they're standing up and fighting back for those who aren't able to do it themselves. I wish you all the best 🫂

This has been getting to me too. I’d be shocked if it wasn’t affecting most people who have OCD in the US. I’ve been trying to identify what category this falls under… harm? Existential? Contamination? I’m scared of being harmed or accidentally harming someone by not protecting them from these dangers. It feels like our county is contaminated with evil and it’s hard to know who is a safe person.
