I'm here for you too. Often times life feels too hard to continue when I don't see a way out, but I hope you keep fighting. We could just lay down and accept it. Life has no guarantees, but a chance at something better has to be worth trying. Keep going, it's f ing hard but just keep going. One thing at a time.

I understand this. I always try to imagine myself with someone who’s ocd has affected them as much as its affected me and that we’d always be there for each other

Yes, I've thought about this too. But it must be tough to find people with ocd out there, mustn't it? Mostly because no one talks about this illness casually - Only in apps like this people talk about it openly outside of therapy. So I guess it would really be lucky to find someone so specific when we seem to be hidden out there. It's really sad that pure O themes are so tabu and hard to be understood. That's why no one really knows how hard it is to deal with ocd.

It's rough but me and the people on this app care and want to see you get better. I overthink what seems like for literally everything and about the weirdest things so your not alone. But you have to dare to think positive about yourself. You will find someone you will live happy. Everyone latches on the bad stuff cuz if it was good it wouldn't bother you at all. I need to think more positive about myself. Sometimes I can give plenty of advice but never take any. Head up girl. You got this

Thank you so much for both advices. It made my eyes fill with tears. Sometimes all we need is someone to listen and maybe comfort us, and tonight you were here for me. I'm grateful. It's very easy to drown in negativity when it's all your mind can come up with, both when awake and asleep, so receiving a bit of attention from people who undestand what we go through from time to time (not trying to sound like an attention seeker) can be really nice.

Aw wish I could give you a real hug. I don't know you, but I genuinely care for you and the others on this app because I see myself. A lot of us are here, so if you ever need to talk or vent we're here. ?

Unrelated to OCD, I just want to go off for a couple of sentences: I have no friends or any memories to look back on. Never been on a date or had someone who cared about me. I’m tired of being alone, it’s one of the reasons that I have so many mental health issues. I have always had no friends. Never been out or anything. I’m tired of this loneliness and I’m almost 20, I can’t make anymore friends because it’s not the same when you’re an adult. That’s all.

Feeling Alone And Tired
I’m fairly new to treating my OCD and have felt crazy for most of my life. It didn’t help that no one in my life truly understood OCD and always said I was being dramatic. I very recently (within the past few months) finally got diagnosed with OCD and my whole life started to make sense. However, I recently opened up to someone I really believed I trusted about the intrusive thoughts I have and now feel worse than I ever have before. They essentially called me a psychopath and said they are worried for the people around me. Even though I would and could never hurt anyone. I’ve never felt more alone and broken in my life. I already try very hard to hide my OCD and everything associated with it because no one in my life understands so it’s been easier to deal with it myself than listen to everyone say whatever they have to say about my situation. After what happened today I’m even more inclined to just keep it to myself. I don’t know what I’m expecting from writing this but I figure this is the best place to write what I’m feeling. Going through OCD is hard enough on it’s own. But when people are telling you they think you’re a danger to society and are crazy because of your intrusive thoughts it really hurts. I’m just tired.

ROCD.
I'm sure this feeling is exasperated by my period right now but I'm just upset about my ROCD and the fact that I can't pursue a relationship. I just want to date. I know people say it's better being single but I want a relationship and I can't even have one because my ROCD is so bad that even just flirting makes me extremely anxious. On top of that being masc-nonbinary makes it harder so most people I'm attracted to are straight. The one person I found who likes me for me likes someone else and even if he didn't I can't date him because of my ROCD. I've been craving intimacy so much lately. Not sex just like cuddling and being held and personal talks and stuff. I guess I'm just lonely and longing. Feels kind of pathetic to cry over but. :')
