OCD likes to exhaust us, make us feel defeated. Don’t give up. I’m in the same boat where all my joy feels like it’s gone, but you’ll find it again. This right now is temporary. The cycle of ocd sucks, it’s full of highs and lows. You can do this. I have had ocd for almost 10 years now, and I know and believe in you that this will pass and you can get through it. It’s hard but reach out and continue to talk yourself through it. You’re not alone

And Nicky, you are actually so strong (contrary to what OCD wants you to believe) so let's not let OCD win. OCD has already taken so much from us, let's not let it take away the beautiful, rare, privilege of getting to live life. You are so loved beyond measure & you deserve to see yourself recover. Recovery is long and difficult but once you get to the other side, it's so beautiful. And the journey can be beautiful too ?

I can't do this anymore
I can't live with OCD anymore. It's ruining my life. I feel like I'm being constantly bullied in my own mind all day everyday. I don't know if what I think and feel is ever real or normal or okay, what is me and what is the OCD thoughts. I don't know if any of my experiences are normal. I'm exhausted from picking apart every single conversation I ever have with anyone until I'm strung out by a vague and ambiguous feeling of guilt. I'm tired of feeling like I'm a bad person and feeling scared all the time and not knowing why and having my brain spin me out on an endless spiralling train of thoughts that never goes anywhere and just makes me feel disconnected from everything and everyone around me. I don't know what I feel and if what I feel is normal or if anything I am doing is real and actually me or if I'm 'losing my mind.' I don't even know if this makes any sense. I get into these states of mind where every thought in my head and everything I feel and perceive makes me question my own sanity. I don't know if anyone likes me because I have absolutely no concept of what I am actually like. I feel completely lost and confused CONSTANTLY.

My mental health is declining due to ocd. It’s like a huge mix between ocd episode and depression wave. I feel weak and hopeless. I wanna cry. I’m exhausted . I feel like I’ve lost myself again.
