Sorry you’re feeling this way ❤️. Have you tried listening to a meditation app in the shower?

i tried everything. my ocd is way worse during the night and when i take showers because i am all alone and not distracted. going to bed has become a fear of mine as i lay awake until 4 am on my phone trying to dial down the sound of my thoughts

I completely understand, OCD is really rough. Yes, it can.

@Nour04 You really should. This app is nice for support but it will never be enough to get better. It’s also full of reassurance unfortunately, which is the last thing you need

@Drvmstick Couldn’t have said it better myself. Therapy and medication will do WONDERS for you. Nour04, I know what it’s like to be in your shoes. I was that way in March. Fortunately I was seeing a therapist already and I was able to get somewhat back on track with my life. Now I only have minor episodes and occasional relapses. Please find a therapist. 💛

@Nour04 You're feeling this because this generation loves to label everything. I am not saying it's bad but it so hard for us so-ocd fighters to deal with it. Maybe you are maybe you're not... you're never gonna know. Girls are pretty so what? Even if you're in denial so what? What if you're actually not? What if you're actually straight? These questions will never stop. OCD wants you to keep in this cycle and it is getting successful.

@Nour04 Also, I go to attend my classes offline. I remember I was so anxious last time and my brain said you like this girl who was sitting just infront of me. And today it's a lot better. So it does get better. Gradually. I too have my awful days but it decreases eventually. Everything will be alright. Trust me. Just keep calm. Try.

im scared
my thoughts are screaming at me telling me that i dont want my relationship anymore and that i realized i lost feelings. i have a beautiful relationship of two years with a beautiful boy that loves me dearly and i deal with this thoughs for a year and a half. Im so scared it feels so real im scared i have changed and my last therapy session made it worse she basically told me i have to realise the thoughts are true and stop lying to myself. And made me think i am so scared and heartbroken bc i put high expectations on myslef to be with my boyfriend for all my life. Maybe i dont want to hurt him??? im always questioning my feelings for him 24/7 for over a year. I wm tierd

like I'm suffocating...
these days I feel particularly bad. I can't let the thoughts and those scenes be there without going deeper into it. Everything about my sister has become a trigger for me, and I have the impression that she "turns me on" and creates a big panic. I feel like I can't breathe because I don't know how to let it all go and I don't attach importance... 5 months of ERP and now this, I can't do it, I don't know it...and I don't know what else to do...

spiraling over anxiety
contamination ocd has really been messing with me the last couple of days. usually i only struggle when i can connect something to possibly throwing up, but this time it doesn’t matter. so earlier, i took a shower and i also use a wash cloth to wash my body. after i showered i cleaned up my dirty clothes and towels. then when i came back to grab my phone, there was a soap speck on my phone so without thinking i just wiped it on the back of my crewneck i was wearing. well that then spiraled into me thinking what if the soap was from my dirty wash cloth. i know most of you are probably thinking it’s clean since you use soap to clean ur body. well i clean every inch of my body, including my bottom so that’s where my anxiety is gravitating towards. this sounds so ridiculous saying it out loud, but i just have so much anxiety over it. i tried my hardest not to change but i did. at first i just changed my crewneck, but then i had to change my shorts cause my crewneck touches my shorts. but then i changed my shorts. and now i feel like my shirt is contaminated cause i was wearing it with my other shorts before changing. moral of the story, i just have so much anxiety over it and i feel like i shouldn’t because it’s really not a big deal. and i don’t want to change again because that seems ridiculous to me. plus now i’m connecting the contamination to my bed since i was laying on my bed before i changed. i hate life, this sucks.
