I’m in the same boat, but I’m sure there is someone in your life that makes you feel like a success. You are worthy, I truly believe that. I feel similarly, but I know that these are just my bullshit ocd thoughts, they are evil and try to convince you and I of things that aren’t true. Stay strong and wake up everyday with the mindset that you can do this and come out on top, sure there are days where it will be tough, but you just have to remember that it gets better. I’m here for you and I’m sure there are so many people there for you as well.
This was exactly the same boat that I was in last year just as I turned 25! I had a complete mental break down, and had OCD thoughts about harming myself or taking my life, but here I am a year later and I just turned 26 on Tuesday! At that point in life I thought that I was stuck forever and now I’m finally just about done with my therapy sessions and I can’t tell you how much of a difference a year has made! Don’t worry, we’re all out here rooting for you and rooting for each other!
Don't worry I just turned 26 and am in rehab because my HOCD turned me into an alcoholic ..
Thanks so much I def have a good support system I just get caught up in comparing myself to others n soemtimes I feel I’ll never be a success bc of my ocd
Thanks I was doing good for 10 months I relapsed Tho bc I cut back on meds I just turned 25 Monday but the fact it came back twice feels like My life’s over & everything goin on in the world doesn’t help
Ya I have problems with drinking soemtimes
Only makes everything worse , do not drink as a compulsion
Learned the hard way when I blacked out 2 weekends ago
Honestly I'm just going to rant here. But I've been so mentally ill that I haven't been able to work and I feel so useless and unworthy. I'm 24 years old already and I don't work as much as I need to or am motivated and full of magic as I use to be. And that REALLY FUCKING GETS ME DOWN
Does anyone feel like they’re wasting their life away with mental illness? It depresses me so much everyday. My mental health has ruined my life since I was 15 and now I’m approaching 24 and am still in the same place- actually worse. I feel like when I get my life together I’ll be 28 and all my good years would’ve passed. It just makes me so sad 😔
I asked for reassurance from the stranger I was having what if thoughts about. I feel crazy. I feel like I’ve failed, I couldn’t handle the unknown. I’ve been fighting so hard for no reason it feels like. I feel kinda gross too. Like asking for reassurance and going through all of this alone.. without my boyfriend knowing anything. He has no idea I struggle so badly. He has no idea of the panic attacks and how hard I’ve been fighting. I wish I could just be freaking normal. I’m 25 and have little to no mental stability when it comes to ocd. I feel like I could break in half at the drop of a needle.
