Second night of breaking down crying, i am tired of my head. My head hurts, i feel like a horrible person. I don’t want to do anything, i don’t want to go anywhere and i don’t know who i am anymore. I’m scared of what my life will become. I never thought i’d say this but i just don’t see the point in living anymore, i don’t care about what happens to me. I don’t feel anything but anxiety and fear. My life is horrible.

You are not alone. Don’t trust those thoughts. You have OCD but don’t let OCD have you!!!! You are not your OCD no matter how much it tries to make you think otherwise. PERIOD. If you have to take things minute by minute, then do that. I was actually getting to the place you are in now tonight and decided to get a friend to go on a walk with me. I wouldn’t say it was a miracle cure but it did take the edge off and sometimes that’s all you need to finally be able to sleep. And then when you are up the next day, try and find something to do that makes you happy and distract yourself with tv or something. It might seem hopeless now but that is another one of OCD’s tricks. There are ERP exercises and books even if you can’t get in to see a therapist/psychiatrist. And if you don’t feel ready to do them or go to a dr, hold on knowing that OCD waxes and wanes and that you will eventually get some relief. You’ve got this! We’ve got this! I’ll check in later to see how you are doing:) Hugs?

Thank you everyone, the support on this app is amazing. It feels nice to know that there are people out there going through the same thing as me, and that understand me. You guys make me feel less alone and give me hope. I hope every single one of you is doing okay, and that if are not i hope that you’ll come on here because there’s a lot of support and love. Hugs for everyone!

I had a much better day!

Oh no that sounds horrible! I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. Please try and get into treatment if you haven't already. I know it's super hard to believe, but there is hope. You won't always feel this way. Try to spend time around other people if you can. God bless you

This was me a month ago. I didn’t think life was worth living AT ALL. I seriously considered taking my own life. I had never experienced such pain and hopelessness in my life. However things are starting to look up: things change, even if you don’t believe they will. I’m sending you all of my love. I know how you feel, I really do. Hang in there, be strong. Keep us updated or vent everything out if you want. We’re here for you. OCD destroys lives, but only people like us here on this app really understand this. ❤️

We’re all here for you! OCD can be extremely hard but things truly do get better. Just know you’re not alone and have support ?

I’m waiting for my first session with an ocd specialist. I’ve just been having a rough couple of days, thank you for your comment.
