My opinion: you don't have to worry abt what people think bout u! U owe nothing to This person... I've lerned not to give a fuc# abt what people think abt me... I think anger, hate, depression is part of our desease, but we must be stronger then ocd! We must reeducate our brains to know that This intrussive thoughts arent real, even If some "hater" says so, you know urself, u know u're nothing that shes telling, she Just might be jelous of u or something, because u're probabli better then This girl... Aniways, the point im trying to get is: don't let enybody take ur inner peace, Focus on ur treatment, on ur goals, and stay strong! I'll be Glad to Help, or, at least, try to Help! Dry your eyes, keep ur Head up, and move on! Don't let nothing take the smile on ur face!
I’m so, so sorry, my friend. I’m sending you lots of hugs and love to get you through this. People can be so hateful, but the way I see it is that their opinions aren’t worth anything if they don’t know you personally. Hard as it is, try to stay focused on getting better. Take care of yourself. Go for a walk, dance, take a warm bath, eat some sweets, watch your favorite movie, or read a book. Do something you enjoy and remember that there will always be someone who cares for you, because I certainly do. Also remember that although someone may read what she wrote it doesn’t mean they’ll agree with it. Even if they don’t know your story, people may still realize that it’s wrong to hurt someone like she did ❤️❤️
Dont be afraid to take breaks from social media too. I know all too well it can be really addicting and can actually do more harm than good at times. Im taking a break from mine right now. I just kept getting too overwhelmed. Its not weak to practice self care so you can focus better
How are you feeling?❤️
@Catlady thank you so much. I'm okay, I just feel super anxious. I kept waking up last night because of what felt like jolts of intrusive thoughts. I was doing better and I feel like she just put thoughts in my head of feeling like everything my ocd is true and that I'm a terrible messed up person
*everything my ocd says
Back in October, I told one of my friends about my intrusive and scary thoughts relating to POCD. A few days later, she cut me off after sending me a text message, which basically accused me of being an actual pedophile or someone who wants to hurt children. This was a very stressful day to say the least. Anyways- fast forward to today- she reaches out to me for the first time since then, basically confronting me once again about all of this. She also posted comments relating to my POCD thoughts on my social media profile. I just feel anxious that I can’t be trusted anymore and that she is going to tell everyone that I’m terrible or that everyone is going to think I’m actually terrible. I have already had enough worries about being a bad person, it is even more difficult when your once best friend is accusing you of being the most horrendous thing that many people can ever imagine. I’m scared to be around other people, for that they may have heard something about me, or will. I feel paranoid. I feel afraid for my future. Ever since October, I have felt that this would haunt me for the rest of my life.
Ok sorry this is kinda a quick post just desperate for help. Any advice anyone who can provide some help or advice. I’m feeling pretty overwhelmed and suicidal at the moment so writing this isn’t easy, I’m struggling to find the words to describe how I’m feeling right now, so I’m just gonna lay it out as it is. Although I haven’t been formally diagnosed with ocd I have allot and I mean allot of the symptoms. My life and mental state is horrible and it’s hard. Ur I try and get get by with the good things in my life. Sorry I’m not here for a pity party or sob story. I know you all are better and have enough to worry about. Basically I had a friend who was 14 and I met when I was 17. We talked for a few months and while we where pretty chill out conversations sometimes involved more suggestive things. Talking as teenagers do. However as I was getting close to being 18 I knew I had to stop this out of morals and my own judgement. So I did. Or so I thought, I’m my opinion what i said here was wrong and my ocd if I even have it is telling me I’m a creep and some monster who deserves to die and suffer. Basically now I was at the time 18 we where playing Truth and dare. Classic party game for boring nights. And I asked what there best pickup line was. I responded to there’s with “aha that was funny” and moved on. I just feel the dare I said was sexual or inappropriate to ask them. And I feel horrible so horrible I can’t even begin to explain it. I feel hopeless and I’m slowly losing grip of myself. I don’t wanna seem like I’m begging or asking for reassurance but any semblance of hope would help. Or advice honestly I would be great full for both. Thank you for reading whoever you are and i hope ur day is going better than mine.
A friend of mine a few months ago did something very bad to me. Tldr, there was sexual assualt, and it was basically a nuclear bomb when i discussed it with a friend and everyone found out. I've had such a hard time dealing with it, since i get these obsessive thoughts, "what if i misremembered what happened" "what if he didnt mean to do it?" and ive avoided talking about it with anyone, so people made up their own conclusions and stories and I lost almost all my friends because they didnt understand what was happening. Talking about it causes such ruminations and shame spirals. How can I resolve or work through this experience when I cant think or talk about it without guilt and doubt from OCD?
