I’m so sorry you feel that way. I have felt that way in the past, so I understand where you’re at right now. But life is so magical when it gets down to it. Why don’t you make a list of five things you think are awesome about this world. They can be anything. Example; Honey bees, the ocean, sunsets, dogs, family, music, hobbies, passions; whatever makes you happy. Also I just want to say that God loves you, and he wants you to live. He put you here for a reason. ❤️🙏Maybe you don’t believe in God, but there is certainly some meaning to this life, no matter what you call it.

Look how many of us want you to stay! Having Existential OCD I’ve suffered from intense suicidal thoughts myself. But something to tell yourself when you’re in this dark place is you can always defer the decision to end your life. You don’t have to choose to do it now. Life is suffering, but if you can take that suffering and turn into meaning, then all that suffering is worth it. Perhaps one day all your pain will be for the purpose of helping someone else just like you heal. Listen to the OCD stories podcast if you need to find someone to relate to. They often have people come on and discuss different themes of OCD. Keep holding on my friend. Do 100 jumping jacks now if you need to get all that negative energy out of you. Why, you may ask? Because you know deep down that your life has value.

Dont worry...i remember u. Uve been through HOCD like me. I have really bad suicidal thoughts whenever im upset or angry it triggers them. I always think of wanting to get run over or stab my brain or choke myself to death or even drown myself purposely or even stab myself. I still have them ur not alone

This is happening to me too, but I’m still here and in spite of what my thoughts do, I won’t allow that to change.

I feel this a lot especially when I’m spiraling in thoughts and need a way to attempt to get rid of it. We’re all here together and it does get better I promise

When I said “why you ask” I was referring to the thought of choosing to help yourself “When confronted with life and death, choose life.”

I'm getting intrusive thoughts of self harm. It seems like I've achieved everything in my life and it makes little difference. None of it was worth anything.

No I’m not attempting or anything. I am just really in a depressive state as of now. I am so convinced that my fear is real you don’t even know. I don’t know what to do. I just want to go to sleep and wake up in a reality where this is all gone. But honestly I don’t know if that would change anything. I’m scared that this is who I was all along, and I’ve just been delaying what I will eventually become. I don’t want to do ANYTHING that my intrusive thoughts say AT ALL. But honestly that doesn’t mean anything anymore. I’m so convinced of the thought “you’ve been doing it this whole time without realizing it.” I think it’s true now. I feel incredibly stuck. I just want to be hugged :(

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.
