I want you to know that even though it doesn’t seem like it right now hocdgirlsummer you WILL love again. I’ll tell you a bit about my story. My wife whom I was married to for six years and was with her a total of ten years told me one day nine months ago that she no longer wanted to be with me. At the time she told me this I was going through the worst time of my life dealing with my OCD. She left me when I needed her the most. When she left I had learn how to drive myself around again. I had to learn how to go out in public again without her by my side to reassure me I wouldn’t or didn’t do the things I thought about during my obsessions. I was bitter. The day of our divorce hearing she had the tenacity to let her new boyfriend bring her to the courthouse. After that day I sank back down deep in depression again. But after a few weeks I realized that if she couldn’t stay with me when I needed her the most, she wasn’t worth me getting upset missing her. All of us have an inner positive truth that goes far beyond our OCD. That positive light keeps shining bright as our truth, and one day someone will pick up on that positive energy and we WILL love again. I hope this message finds you well. Take care my friend.

Of course I think about my next love every single day. Even though I haven’t met her yet it gives me hope because I know that somewhere out there you know that she will arrive and that someone will surely arrive for you too. I think of if this way. I read a quote once that has impacted my positive driving force. It was: “As above so below as within so without.” I’ve thought about the meaning of this ever since I read it and I interpret it like this: as above meaning when you look around you and see people that you perceive to be happier than you or in better shape or they are very much in love and it makes you feel empty inside you are SO BELOW them...then that day arrives when that special person comes into your life by what seems like impossible means and you’re filled WITHIN with so much love and emotion.... then the universe gives your sorrow to someone else so then you are SO without.... then it all starts over again and that person will be found by love someday....

You never know the future! It's not necessary that these thoughts stay with you. You can know what love is! When you're down it's normal to feel like this. Things get better. ?

TW I’m feeling really bad about myself today. I feel like a fraud and a liar. I’ve been unable to enjoy my time with my girlfriend because I’m bombarded with my thoughts. I’ve been asking for reassurance from so many people and nothing is helping. Nothing makes me feel better anymore and I’m worried that this is just how it’s going to be for forever. I miss when I could just be happy and not overthink so much. I miss being able to get through my days without this crippling anxiety. I’m worried there’s going to be a day where I realize I have no fight left in me

I’ve been going through this rough patch for the last four months, and I can already feel an even worse one coming. I just feel scared. And on top of that, I’m going to stop therapy. After everything with my current therapist, I just don’t have the strength to keep trying anymore. I feel hopeless. My head hurts so much, and it’s hard to keep going when everything feels this bad. I just want to cry, hope this feeling passes, and maybe try again if it ever lets up. But right now, it feels like nothing will ever get better. I don’t feel like I can ask for help. I hate that it took me so long to realize this wasn’t the therapist for me. I was too scared of being dramatic, so I let it go on for far too long, and now I feel like I’ve just become a burden-like. I hate that I let it get to that point, especially when I was paying for this. I just want to give up. I feel broken down, and I don’t even want to be okay anymore.

I’m just full of emotions right now. I feel like I just want to explode. I broke up with my ex a week ago he keeps texting me saying I love you I don’t respond because I don’t pay no mind. What’s bothering me is why did I let this dude use me and I trusted him. He manipulated and used me and I have serious trust issues I never tell anyone what I go through because it’s not safe at all. I feel like I don’t want to trust a guy ever again yes I’m 19 and I’m still young and should date but I don’t have the energy anymore. I attract terrible men that use me and I cave in to easy because I’m lonely and my life is miserable and even doing the things I used to like feel like a chore. I told my sister this today and she said I should be patient that the right man will come to me. But I feel like even if he did I would reject him because I’m an easy person to take advantage of.
