PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!! I have had HOCD for 1.5 years now and TOCD has showed up 15 days back. I can't seek a therapist because my parents have a conservative mindset and I don't earn. I have been doing ERP since a month now but I am anxious and depressed all the time. I sit with anxiety. I am feeling completely lost since a week and it feels like I am in denial or who I actually am. I don't like dressing up anymore. I almost gave up on life yesterday night. How long will I take to recover?

Or will I ever recover? Or is this is even OCD? I am not trying to seek reassurance but I am in a terrible place rn.

And please tell what's the right way to do ERP. Idk if I am doing anything right.

@Reassurance Destroyer Thanks

Watch ocd mindful on YouTube. Once you accept that you might be gay you’ll get better

Reassurance ...

It’s as easy as that. But you truly have to embrace it
