Okay please calm down and try to contact suicide hotline. You seem very on edge and I’m concerned. If you don’t want to talk to them on the phone, you can text them too. There’s also ocd hotlines that can help with suicidal thoughts as well. Just prioritize your safety before you try to figure out if this is ocd or not.

@Alyosha Can’t find the specific links but you can text NAMI to 741741 and speak to mental health professionals. Just specify what you’re struggling with and they’ll connect you with someone for ocd help

The same or worse. It’s like I can feel all of my intrusive thoughts being sent to my friends as I’m having them and none of friends are responding so that doesn’t help! I’m having a melt down feels very real

@Meabh As real as it feels, it’s the ocd. You can get through this. Do you have access to a therapist?

Hang in there! I agree with Meabh. You need some space before you try think about this. You’re in fight-or-flight mode. Something that helps me is to tell myself, “You don’t have to solve this tonight. You can think about this more tomorrow at 8:00pm.” And usually, by the time the “worrying appointment” comes up, I’ve calmed down and realized it wasn’t actually a real problem, just my anxiety at the moment sticking to a thought. Hope that helps!
