Its true that the intrusive thoughts will never go away completely. But how you react to them can be changed. OCD only wins if you give up. Find a therapist that understands OCDband specializes in ERP. I'm not going to lie to you. ERP is crazy hard and uncomfortable. But you CAN beat OCD. You don't have to keep living the way you are. ERP only works if you commit to it and give it your all. All you need tobdo is decide to fight back. Recovery is possible. But no one is going to come to you. If you want help, then you need to ask for it and seek it out. A good place to start is by scheduling a free call with NOCD. Theyvask you some basic questions about your symptoms and insurance. Then you get paired with a therapist. The first step is a 90 minute OCD assessment. At the end, you will get a diagnosis if you meet the criteria for OCD. Then you build your hierarchy and start learning ERP. Only you can decide if you want recovery. No one else can decide that for you. Treatment through NOCD may even be covered by your insurance.

Lately my OCD has been very horrible, it’s been more convincing than ever to the point where I’m genuinely convinced that I like this stuff, when I get a thought, I’ll hear my intrusive thoughts go “oooh, I like that, I’d do that.” and I just don’t freak out nor feel bad, I just feel like I like it even more, and feel like I would do/act on it and like it, and the feeling is strong and it lingers forever? It genuinely feels like I do, and I’m just lying now, i can’t tell if I make these thoughts worse or anything All I remember mostly just being like confused sometimes when these thoughts happen, but since I’m getting strong emotions that I like it, my brain says that means I did and I’m worried about that being true because I don’t understand nor know It’s like I am resisting to like this stuff now, it’s even tougher now than it was before

I feel like I’ll never lead a normal life again with OCD, my thoughts have begun to be convince especially about POCD. I feel like so sad and down that this will be my life forever. I’ll never get to fall in love again without intrusive thoughts. I’ll never be worth falling in love with. I can never be intimate again. I’m just done, my life is over. I can’t even look at my nephew and niece anymore without the smile fading. It feels like I’m so nasty and then my brain convinces me this is how I feel. That there’s some part of me that is a p*do and that’s it. I’m a disgusting human being for that. I just feel hopeless
