Today is a terrible day , I can’t get out of bed I’m a failure and exhausted and I don’t know if I’m capable of getting better anymore .

It is okay to have a bad day. We all get them. You have to stay strong because I promise you that it will be so worth it! Sending lots of love to you!!

I also felt that way for a while where I had no energy to do anything or thought life could get better. Trust me it really does I’m speaking from experience. When your in that zone it feels like nothing can bring you back but honestly just keep holding on each day and you will slowly start to feel better and enjoy life more and more.

Hello, new to this community. I had so many days like that. Even moving would trigger an episode. It gets better :)

Thank you so much everyone , you’re all so wonderful .😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏❤️

You are not alone. We’re in this with you❤️

Things will get better!

Hey, I've been where you are right now. I know you feel exhausted. But you are not a failure and things are going to get better. I was lying in my bed from the evening (when I woke up) till the morning. Couldn't do shit. Nothing entertained me. Life, for the first time, felt like just existing and nothing more than that. But I feel better now. It's all not constant. But you need to cheer yourself up, be compassionate and push yourself sometimes to for example take a shower every single day. Brush your teeth. Eat. Do everything even when you feel like it's not worth it

Thank you so much everyone , because I’m so frightened that I’ll never have control of my life again .

Thank so much ❤️❤️🙏

Hey friend! Listen to me very carefully here - YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE. Say it with me - "I AM NOT A FAILURE." It's easy to get caught up and worry that you'll never get in control of life. That life will always be like this but trust me, it's not. You need to learn to train your brain to not live in the "what if" world but rather the "what is". The Bible tells us not to worry about tomorrow bc today has enough troubles of its own. Another OCD forum I read said that OCD sufferers also suffer from secondary suffering. Basically it's us beating ourselves up about what is happening to us. Hold your head up high and know that OCD is lying to you. Find a counselor, keep a journal and above all don't ever forget that you're not alone. Hugs from Ohio! I'm proof that there is power in the name of Jesus and there is healing and hope from OCD!! Baby steps no matter how small are still progress.
