ocd/anxiety/depression targets your worst fears and works to validate bad feeling. work hard and last em! you might feel that way for a while but leaning into good relationships and seeking help (talk therapy, cbt, medication, etc) is the way. first step is admitting you’re unhappy !

You’re not alone in feeling alone. I’m constantly tricked into thinking this is something I can fix something I did wrong that I could correct. Then I have to focus on what’s fact: the fact that this is not your fault, it’s no wonder ocd makes us feel isolated it’s a cruel disease—but you gotta talk it out with a therapist who can be open minded. I promise anger and sadness turned inwards just creates more depression. This too shall pass

OCD makes you feel so so alone. I was crying in the car on my way home thinking I must be the only 29 year old woman with POCD ever and no one could relate. It helped reaching out to a loved one and being scared of being judged but not one person has reacted with shock or horror ( I just tell them I have unwanted thoughts ) and they tell me they have unwanted thoughts too, I just have ocd. It’s not me, it’s a brain mis function which I think makes us more sensitive people

You’re absolutely NOT alone . You would be surprised by how many people struggle with OCD. Even though you don’t know people on this app personally it doesn’t matter . It’s still people that are there for you and can relate to what you are experiencing. People with OCD are so brave . We are brave, strong and caring people . We care so much we let it consume how whole lives . You are NOT alone

Do you ever just feel like a bad person?
Does anyone else experience this lingering fear and anxiety because they think they’re capable of hurting someone? It’s killing me. I feel like I’m such a danger. I feel like I’m a predator. I feel like this awful person and I can’t shake it. I want to carry on with my day but I can’t. I don’t feel like I deserve it. I feel like I’ve done awful things. I can’t stop crying.

I could really use some support
I’ve been trying my best with ERP and just everything that’s going on. I have severe OCD, GAD, PMDD, panic disorder, recently diagnosed ADHD, and currently experiencing a major depressive episode. Apparently. I was taking a break from this app but I really need support right now. My family is honestly really mean and not understanding of what I’m going through. Right now it’s gotten bad to the point I had to withdrawal from my last semester of university. My only support is my boyfriend and he’s now planning to join the military. I won’t be able to talk to him for 3 months and I feel really scared of being alone with all of this. I know I shouldn’t depend on him to begin with but right now I’m at an extremely low point and I feel like I won’t make it alone. There hasn’t been a single day we haven’t texted and talked in 4 years. I feel really scared, but I don’t want to hold him back. You guys, I feel so sad and terrified right now. I don’t want him to go, he’s all I have.

Can't be home alone. How can I over come ?
It's been a year since I've been able to stay home alone. I don't know how to fight this. I feel like the world will collapse on me. That the house will cave in. Or I'll just lose my mind and scream and run outside screaming and saying the world is falling type thing. I don't know how to help myself. I'm to scared to even try to be alone. I have to have my son 18 stay home with me or my aunt stay with me when my son does leave. It's horrible. I feel like I'm holding my son back from so much. I don't know how to beat this. Please help
