โHi, you. I was where you are a year and a half ago. Intrusive thoughts that horrify me, every single day. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. You're not on your own.โ
โI've been there. For me it was about three years ago. Back then it was pure O and nobody understanding. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. It doesn't stay this heavy. xโ
โIf you're just starting with OCD, I won't lie, it's crap. The thoughts feel real. They're not. ERP is hard and it works, slowly. Meds can help, but finding the right one is a pain. Don't let anyone tell you it's just stress. Get a therapist who knows OCD. And find one person who believes you. That's what got me through.โ
โI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason, it doesn't and but you can get through it so I did, and I'm not especially strong and ask for a double appointment if you can, it changed things for me.โ
