i’m a teen guy myself and i think abt that shit too but trust me it gets better u just gotta stay strong make a promise to yourself ur gonna live ur life as if u didn’t have it with every compulsion or search for reassurance remember that u wouldn’t do those things if you didn’t have ocd so don’t act on it just keep going distract urself with tik tok or ft someone and start therapy and talk to ur family trust me
what theme of ocd do u have
@shahsand Thats the problem.I dont know if what i have is ocd.I just know that im stressed and i cant stop myself from searching infos about my symptoms,my thoughts are stuck in my head and they affect my everyday life.The worst is that i keep searching and searching and always jump to the worst conclusion ever.
@Lori that’s most likely ocd u should get a diagnostic done have u talked to ur family about it?
@shahsand I have.They took me to a psychologist,and she told me that im fine.I just dont feel like im fine.
@Lori u should talk to the nocd people
Sometimes our brains go into streamline mode and everything seems to come out at once. It’s hard to not obsess over how much we obsess. It’s a part of the cycle. Sometimes it helps to disconnect with the world and try to reconnect with your soul. On the inside, humans are much bigger than our actions and thoughts. Find power in that. Try breathing meditations. Focus on how your body reacts to being still.
You are really kind.Thank you♡
You may not know 100% that you have OCD, but your thoughts and actions fit the cycle. It's reasonable to respond as having OCD. What bit of homework/study is easiest/most enjoyable to you? Try starting with that.
So..i did almost all of them i have to repeat chemistry.
@Lori Okay. Finish that up and try to get some sleep ☺.
@Ben84 You are right❤
Cw- SI, S/H references I try so hard just to let the thoughts be there and not bother me but they just keep coming back over and over, I don’t trust myself anymore I feel like an evil person and I just want to kill myself I’m so scared that I’m actually what my thoughts say I am, if I am then I will have to kill myself, it feels like a stain on my soul It’s gotten to the point where I’m considering mutilating parts of my body just so I can’t feel anything in those parts or ever use them again I can’t find any relief anywhere, I haven’t felt sure of myself in months, people always tell me it’s okay that I have these thoughts because I don’t want to act on them but my brain keeps saying I do and I would rather kill myself And I’m just so sick of the people saying to accept the uncertainty, I don’t want to have to carry this for the rest of my life I wish I could have literally any other subtype, which I know is selfish of me because everyone else here is suffering too but the stigma and the shame around this one actually sucks the joy out of everything I do
Today has been awful thoughts. It’s just getting worse and it feels like real thoughts and feelings even though I’ve been fighting it. I wish I could explain how bad it is to my parents. How do you tell anyone you’re having horrible horrible thoughts of sexually harming others and other terrible things?And there’s events from my past that make me not want to do anything because I feel like I deserve to be jailed. I’m worried I won’t be able to get a job because I can’t act like a normal person, or learn to drive. My mom said I need something to keep my occupied, find some classes to take. And she’s right but I’m worried I can’t even focus on that and again I feel like it’s a waste because I feel like I deserve to be in jail. I’m 21 I feel like such a failure. I don’t know how to get help, I really feel like I don’t want to live anymore, it feel like the only way out. But I don’t want to hurt anyone and I don’t want my family to feel at fault. I don’t have any diagnosis so it just all feels too real. It’s CONSTANT thoughts about harming others. It feels real, it sounds proud and almost like it’s mocking in my head. I feel like I’m voluntarily thinking these things. I don’t understand why this has happened and why it’s gotten so bad. I know in my heart I have ZERO desire to be this person. I’m sorry I keep posting so much, it’s just so difficult.
