Ocd is truly ruining my life. My themes keep switching and im only a kid, im 16 and im so tired of living already, i cry for hours everyday, i cant take this anymore. I wish i was dead, i miss being at peace and having none of these worries. Im so exhausted mentally and emotionally. I feel like im on a ferris wheel that wont let me get off. Please what do i do? Im so desperate i feel so hopeless and depressed.

@9283an not giving into any thoughts at all. my main issue was analyzing the thoughts and i now don’t do that. it’s very hard at first but you can do it. don’t try to figure out your thoughts because you will not be able to. i also attach no meaning to the thoughts and let them come and go.

@9283an yes. ive been at your point where i’ve just wanted to die and it feels so incredibly lonely but you can keep pushing. pain is temporary and this feeling is not forever. you can get better sometimes it just takes a lot of hard work.

@9283an I understand it’s really hard just pressure your healthcare provider until you get the help that’s what I had to do is there any local charities around?
