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 can't do this anymore I feel fucking insane my mind keeps telling me I want to k word people and if feels like my mind is making fucking plans. I'm diagnosed with ocd but I don't even know if it's ocd what if I'm just a terrible fucking person that actually wants to do this. My mind is literally telling me to go buy a weapon and hurt people like I get fucking urges. I can't keep food down and have not for the last few days I feel like I need to go to a mental hospital but I don't want to burden anyone in my family. Like my mind tells me specifically I want to do this but I don't want to but recently ive been having the thought of what if I did do it but I don't want to. I just want it to stop I'm a good person I don't want to hurt anyone at all. But what if one day I actually do want to do something. I can't do this anymore.
