    "OCD is punishing you already for whatever is in your head" Sad but true!

    It has been nearly 5 years now, and I still think of the same real event that makes me feel like a monster with no irredeemability. The guilt and shame has nearly cost me my life. I want the pain to stop. I want to believe I am a good person, but I do not know. [edit: thank you for the replies, they truly mean a lot]

    It is such a relief knowing you’re not alone with a sickness, which is very hard to explain.

    This video is absolute gold. So well explained and will help many people including myself.

    Thank you! For me, this has been the hardest theme for me to learn to handle but listening to you describe it reaffirms to me that it is OCD and that the ERP will work if I stick with it.
  • It is all depend how Strong the ocd is .. sometimes intervention with pills is necessary*
  • Thanks. I feel like i imagined what someone feels about me & i feel like im crazy & no matter what i cant get any answers & it has dragged on for years. I still dont have any answers but maybe it's less important now. Im trying to let go.

    I didnt write message or visited my coworker in hospital and she died. I know she had friends, but she also trusted me, but I just was running with life and wasn’t so attentive and she died. I regret that I was bad person, I ruminate that she maybe died angry or disappointed in me that I wasn’t there for her. I always helped when she asked, but I never offered my help more than text- if what, don’t hesitate to write me. I suffer also from ocd and I can’t get out of my head that I should did better and I will always regret it and it will ruin my now.

    How about if I got a thought in the past and I was able to disregard it but now that my OCD has flared up again it has latched to that thought and now its making me believe that I might have had that thought for reasons that I know aren't true. Can OCD do that make you doubt into believing things you know in your heart it didn't mean anything when you had that thought in the first place while OCD wasnt active.

    I fear I might have committed a grievous crime… i am so scared

    You know, thinking about a past event may have nothing to do with OCD. I have OCD, but it isn't why I feel bad about my past mistakes, like at work. Especially when commenters on YouTubers don't ease up on the shaming.
