Your brain is hurt. It doesn’t function the way it should. People don’t often understand, but it’s hard to quantify. But everyone here, we understand. We understand what it’s like to want to run from yourself and not be able to. This disorder will do everything it can to make you feel isolated, including make it seem like no one cares. Believe that they do anyways. And please hold on. I know it seems like the hardest thing it the world, but this will not crush you.

I hear you. Ive lost my best friend to this disease. She told me its all in my head and she was having real problems. People don’t understand and even when they try, their patience runs out. They don’t understand we don’t want to feel like this or have these thoughts. But we do. And we have to work on that. And while it would be nice to have their support, we must learn to rely on ourselves becuase we are strong and we are capable and we will move forward regardless.

Please don’t die. Your friends and family love you and care about you a lot. You have so much to look forward to in the future. Keep doing your erp exercises and overtime you will realise that your thoughts are not real and you can be safe in those situations. We can get through this together and we are all here for you.

Having ocd is so incredibly exhausting and depressing- my mom and dad argued with me for over an hour talking about how im a pain to be around, go in too many loops, and ruin everything and everyones mood… this conversation started with me saying im stressed out because of school and that i dont want to go because im exhausted- and idk if this is like ocd directly but it takes me like 2 hours to get ready in the morning because i need to look PERFECT and the same everyday literally 😭 and that process feels so exhausting every morning at 6am but i will NOT go to school without going through with it- i will literally be crying and shaking and wanting to go home the minute i get to school if even a single strand of my hair is not perfectly straightened or any blemishes or flaws are showing- and i cant even walk to school or anything bc im scared the humidity will mess with my hair and everything- and it just really affects my life? And yeah its freaking exhausting. And i have two more years of highschool and I dont know if im going to make it 😭i get super stressed over grades too because i need them to be extraordinary otherwise its a fail. Nothing below 95%. And thats also tiring! 😁 and my mom told me today “medication IS NOTTTT AND OPTION!!!” Like oh okay so im just cooked 😭 and therapy isnt really helping me at all- i feel like what im being told is so basic and generic and it doesn’t help me when im in a huge ocd episode- which is often… and what i hate most is like my mom says “don’t come to me with your problems after 6pm…” im sorry i cant schedule my feelings 😭 im so tired

Feeling like I am a burden on my parents as well on me. No my parents never said anything like this. I just want to end this life which is full of mental suffering which can't be explained. Feeling like I will never be able to do anything in my life. I so want to go far away from these things where there will be only peace.
