@saj When i am alright, i really don’t even think of suicide, death and such stuff. But when my ocd suddenly comes out, i just keep thinking about killing myself and I cannot control this. It just comes to my mind and makes me kinda scared of myself?

@saj 19
@Little graviton I wnat to tell you something I'm 22 and when i was 19 i was like you and even wrose my ocd start when i was 13 and in this duration i found out i can do some experment to learn how can i solve this problems when i was 19 everyday i had a situation that i want to finish my life day by day goes and i felt terrible with feeling that much problems but all of them will solve if you focus on each and solve it one by one

Thanks for understanding
@Little graviton Count on us we listen to you and we are your friends with similar problem.
Thank you for sharing. You are not alone and this platform is a safe space to share your thoughts, feelings, fears and whatever else. Dreams and good stuff too. The reality is that OCD is tough and everyone who has it knows it and those that don't cannot know. You are strong. You shared and that's great. Keep doing that as people on here will listen and respond. As said above, OCD is tough but although a LOT of the time it can feel relentless, unforgiving, unmanageable among other things, with the right understanding and techniques it can be managed. Not fixed or cured, but managed. That is hard to accept for some, including myself, but it needs to be accepted for recovery to work and it's not a quick fix. Can I ask if you have had specific plans for the suicidal thoughts? Secondly, can I ask if you are currently taking any sort of medication? Thanks for sharing
Thanks for your respond? I don’t use medications because i told my therapist I don’t want to. She is helping me with CBT homework. So that’s the method i am following rn.
@Little graviton But actually I’m getting tired of cbt
@Little graviton I didn’t understand your question about suicidal thoughts
Ok well try to ask your therapist if that's the plan because that needs to be part of the treatment after the CBT. Read up about it online if you're interested. The OCD foundation has some sources on it. We can educate ourselves about our disorder and become masters at managing it, you'll be okay :) As for the medication, I was the same as you before about meds but I decided that it would help me in the short term to focus on the essentials which is the CBT and ERP, along with ACT (acceptance). Ask yourself what the reasons are for not wanting to take the medication even for a short time and then see if you would say the same thing to someone with diabetes who didn't want to take their medication for their condition
Thanks a lot for your help :)) ?
I am here for you ?
Thank you Eden ?
The CBT work is essential along with ERP. Are you doing ERP, like exposures?
No.. I don’t think so
Anytime:)
I don’t even know the wrong from the the right anymore I don’t even know how to talk to people without thinking that I offended them or spoke to them in a bad way I don’t even know what i became I don’t want what I became i just cry looking at my hands I cry looking at myself i feel pathetic I feel so desperate I was never this weak and now look at me not being able to control my own behaviors. What happened to the girl who always laughed and cared so much about herself the girl who loved nail polish and was so close to god in away no one imagined what happened to the girl who used to take full grades and be the smartest what happened to me. Isn’t it sad looking at myself with pity, helpless and full of doubt! I don’t deserve this. I know what’s I’m gonna say know sounds selfish but i do compare myself to others I wasn’t as bad as them so why me and not them! Why me !!... I’m loosing my mind I’m getting angry when I’m left alone I’m giving ocd the keys for the prison it made for me I’m letting it control me not that I want to but im not fighting back. Now im with no friends, with a family that doesn’t understand ocd, and a corrupted society that doesn’t value mental health. I’m so sad i feel like a baby rn but im actually so sad and lonely im conditioned now to believe that no one wants me, that im just a burden and need to be silent, not important and useless.... Idk even know what to say anymore
I’m feeling very alone lately, no one to relate to , no one to really understand. I feel like these days it’s so hard to find real friendships that help with how hard life is lately . Sometimes I get so scared that I’m going to end it all one day just out of no where because of how overwhelmed I feel .
I didn't even realize. I'm about to get my period and my anxiety is higher. I'm noticing how my friend hasn't written back to my texts or hasn't answered the last 3 times I called. I think he doesn't want to be my friend anymore. I wrote a text and asked if I did something wrong and he didn't respond. My other friend annoyed me. And I think my other friend doesn't like me that much. I feel abandoned and forgotten and like I must be a bad friend or bad person or why would they all forget me like this. What did I do? Did I take my opinions too far? I've been picking at my skin, having a feeling of unrest. I just watch Netflix and lie on my couch to avoid it. I look okay, but I haven't worked in a year purposefully to find a new way, but I haven't found it yet. I'm doing so much, but it always feels like too little. I tell myself again and again that I'm doing enough, but there's always a voice that says no you're lazy, you're unhealthy and you're just making excuses. I hyperfixate on stupid solutions like blood tests, supplements, genetic testing to explain my symptoms my depression (or is it laziness) my anxiety, my lack of energy, my aches and pains. I quit all drugs and alcohol even caffeine. I track my sleep. I want to feel good. And believe it or not I was thinking I did feel good? Until the afternoon. I don't know. I really hope this is just some fucking b vitamin deficiency and I'll take some pills and be reborn as a human and not a trash pile. Look at me all perfect. With all my career, and my money, and friends who don't like me. Don't I look put together. I'm so imperfect and so scared of anyone finding out. I'm so scared to tell anyone how messed up I am on the inside. I rant to my therapist, my coaches, whoever but I'm just going around in circles. Without support I'd be fucking nuts. Thankfully I pay people to support me. Because no one would for free. Fuck my.life.
