Yeah I currently suffer with this type of ocd! It’s scary and also makes me afraid that I have depression. However, knowing that you wouldn’t want to commit suicide is a good indicator that you most likely won’t.

I once heard a podcast on OCD stories , great website by the way of a fellow named Kevin from Michigan. His OCD and depression got so severe that he was in fact going to commit suicide. His plan was to jump off one of the large bridges in Michigan state. He once heard the saying and it goes like this . Killing yourself does not ease your pain it only passes your pain off to someone else. That basically means to think about your family your parents and the people that this is truly what effect. If the thought of losing control or giving up heels in your heart like a viable comforting option Then you need to get help and soon. However if the thought of killing yourself scares the shit out of you because of the thought of dying then it is a very good indication that it is just OCD and anxiety. Kevin ended up getting help that day that he was going to jump off the bridge was also the very day that his wife book came in to Houston OCD recovery center. The three-month stent and years later he is now A complete advocate for OCD in Michigan State. Good luck guys

Absolutely. I’m very well aware of the difference between a thought that’s scares you and is uncomfortable and a thought that’s is comfortable and soothing. That’s why I stated what I did. Not all people on this app recognize OCD for what it can do and often there is much confusion on weather or not the thoughts they are having are real or just OCD that’s why the details on the post above explain the difference, and can hopefully set Ben in the right direction for analyzing his thoughts and seeing , and determination weather or not they are irrational (OCD) or rational and needs help. Depression is no joke

suic. ocd advice?
so I need to get back into ERP, but it’s so hard to manage these thoughts and learn to deal with them. like I swear my mind has to make everything about it. Like every time I clean my room, my mind’s like yup make sure it’s clean so when your parents find you, or something so stupid like if I get a headache, my mind convinces me that I like the pain and that that’s why I get my thoughts because I actually want to do it. It’s so exhausting. Because I know I would never want to take my life and I treasure my life so why does it do it to me? It’s hard to comprehend the fact of these thoughts too because I don’t know many people with this exact theme. It’s such a scary feeling. And I’m constantly questioning whether I have actual depression or if it’s just my OCD. Yes I have been diagnosed with suicidal OCD, but my mind still tries to convince me otherwise. I just don’t know how to let these just sit and pass without panicking.
