i was feeling this way just yestedsay. i’m sorry you’re going through this pain. it’s not selfish. i know it’s difficult to find meaning in having to deal with hurt but soon your heart will be opened up to new experiences and loves that you will cherish because of these times. try starting small, making small goals. “I won’t because i’m waiting for this new album..” i won’t because, i won’t because. I even ordered a pair of items online and told myself I’d wanted them for so long i should experience them.

@the terminator Thank you. I’ve just been existing for weeks now doing absolutely nothing like I’m not even living. And I feel like a piece of shit. So I feel like it wouldn’t be ending much ya know? Also it feels like there are more reasons to die than to stay alive right now. But thank you. I’m going to try telling myself that. Sorry this is dark

What about your OCDs? I presume it's because of them you are that drained. You should understand that OCD is often related on bad things happened to you beforehand often in your childhood. Often people having OCD are really in distress and broken emotionally. Our subconscious is fed up with all what you've been through and try to drain your suffers by doing some rituals (it's like you need to give back the blows you received, when we obtain good things from people we wanna give good things back. When we obtain bad things from people we wanna hit back). It's human. Complicated to live with because we compare ourselves with people who don't have any OCD then we feel guilty like if we were cursed by life. But life it's a long path and you're still here so fight back, try to understand your feelings and do not forget that only God wan judge us, nobody else.

A lot of it is because of my ocd, but I also have depression. My ocd also makes my depression worse too so more depression. And it ultimately leads to me feeling this way. It’s weird that I have my compulsions becasue they just cause me more anxiety and make everything worse. But my ocd and many other things are making me feel this way. I just feel like there’s so many different things piled up and I can’t even take care of myself or do anything currently so I feel so shitty about myself. I feel like my life is so bleak and I just need an escape. Thank you

I’m sorry to hear that. I used to suffer from suicidal thoughts due to my depression and now I don’t have them anymore. When you have these thoughts try and do the things that make you happy so go for a walk, spend time with your family and friends, listen to music, watch Netflix and please go to the Ed, call the suicide hotline and speak to a professional. Things will get better soon it will just take time.

I've found myself writhing on the ground from intrusive thoughts of my past. I have bruises all over from me hitting myself. Every waking moment is a nightmare, I can't do anything. Can't let people be mean. But standing up for myself turns into cruelty. Cruelty turns into a loathing, and then I fear that everyone hates me. I wish I could die, and live again. I don't want to lose my life, but I can't live like this.

I feel so freaking scared. I know I’ll have an intrusive thought/urge and whatever I know I’m going to fight off another compulsion until I eventually give in bc I’m still so new to this. I am petrified and I feel like I cannot for the life of me relax. I’m sleep deprived, in a terrible place hormonally, withdrawing from meds, and being treated like a burden by people around me. I literally feel like I can’t do this. I keep thinking about those posts where people talk about the hypothetical scenarios where you learn your death date. I feel like if someone told me I’d die soon, I would cry of relief. I would never hurt myself but boy do I not want to experience this anymore.

I can't stop thinking about ending my life. I feel like I'm not even living, I'm just surviving. Everyone is capable of being a person and functioning and I'm just stuck here avoiding everything. My psychiatrist said my ocd is severe and it will all take time and I'll start erp and I'm already on medication but I just feel so depressed and like I won't be able to handle erp and it's already too late for me. I feel inhuman, it's debilitating. My major theme is just fear or contamination, I can't even make myself a meal I can't touch anything in the kitchen. I get stuck in the shower for 2 hours and when I don't shower because I'm depressed I feel like a walking germ. My hands are a mess, my school work is shit, I avoid and avoid and I'm just so tired of "living" like this. My psychiatrist said they don't have any therapists available right now like.... excuse me? What do you mean u don't have any 😭 I honestly don't even know why I'm typing this becuase nothing helps, nothing ever will. I'm so deep into this I can't get out, my room looks like shit, I can't live in this body anymore, I really can't. I let everyone down, I am and will be such a dissapointment. I don't have any dreams or goals or passions I just wasn't made to be here. I don't know how or who to ask for help like there's nothing anyone can do, I'm already on meds. I can't keep being like this, seeing everyone judge me for acting insane.
