Hey! I completely understand what you are feeling. I had an intrusive thought earlier that made me depressed, which brought on more thoughts. It is SO hard...but I think that the most fascinating part is that for most people (at least myself) I’ve had thoughts like this since a kid, and I’m still here. Some days are really good, but today was a not so good day. I was so exhausted from thinking that I had to lay in bed because I had no energy. About an hour later, I am feeling a bit better. I turned on Happy station by Pharrell Williams on Pandora. It’s easier to have more positive thoughts when things around you are more positive. Are you able to make an appt. with a therapist on here? I just scheduled one for tomorrow for the same reasons

Feel you so hard rn. Sometimes it just feels like ur literally going crazy and the only way to feel better is to give into OCD, but that just makes it worse. If u need someone to talk to I'm here for you

Thanks so much everyone ?. I feel so tired of chasing after recovery. I’m currently seeing an NOCD Therpist and she’s great, things have gotten so much better since getting treatment and the obsessions I originally came in with have now subsided or gone away but ocd keeps throwing new obsessions my way and I’m halfway through my therapy sessions but I had a spike this week and compusled today. I keep obsessing about a comment my bf made on his fb page and It keeps repeating in my head and i am so tired of starting arguments about it bc I know there isn’t anything I can do to know for sure what he really mean or feels. But I don’t even have a fb but I go on to his page to torture myself with it/ruminate and then I feel so angry after . I have severe jealousy ocd and it ruins my life

Is there a therapist or a specialist on here that I can briefly chat with? Or maybe an OCD conqueror who’s very familiar with the disorder? I need an experienced person to talk to me so bad. I just really wanna talk to somebody about what I’m going through so that I feel less alone, and so I can maybe get help managing my symptoms. Thank you in advance ♥️

I genuinely can't help but feel irredeemable over every little mistake made or regret I've had. It's so up and down, but I just miss the certainty. Knowing "this is who I am." I'm so disconnected from myself. Like, I'm really, really trying. Today is really rough... I got triggered the other night, and it's been hell since. I've been fighting seeking reassurance. I want it so, so incredibly bad, but I know it won't help me :( Some days, I just don't want to be here. It's funny because yesterday I felt amazing until I got triggered. I just immediately spiraled after that. I don't know. Does it genuinely get better? Will therapy really help me? Sometimes, I think maybe this is the best it'll get, and that scares me. Sorry for the vent. I'm just feeling so overwhelmingly anxious right now. I can't even cry (due to Zoloft). It feels claustrophobic somehow, having all these emotions trapped inside of my body with nowhere to go 😭
