I cannot help but feel exhausted as I go through life. It feels like I've lost the spark in me. And I'm pushing myself for no cause.

i feel this so much :( before my ocd flared up i was doing great, got in my first relationship, and was on a roll with my current hyperfixation... but when it hit, it made me so depressed and anxious i can no longer enjoy any of my hobbies or interests, and no matter what i do there is always a sense of unease... it has been months and i have considered giving up but we all need to hang in there! ocd is a demon and no matter how strong it seems we cant let it win. sending you a virtual hug.
I've felt that way before many times. OCD can take away your motivation for life and carrying on. I pray that you'll be able to find inner peace with God as you carry on through this struggle. Don't give up friend. Surrender all of your cares and worries to God and He will sustain you and be your helper and friend in the storm. God bless. :)
I’m really sorry you’re feeling this way. That sounds so heavy, and I just want you to know that it’s okay to feel this way. Life can be exhausting, and it makes sense that you’re feeling drained. But these feelings won’t last forever; they come and go, just like thoughts do. Sometimes, we just have to take a break, sit with our feelings, and care for ourselves a little extra. No matter how it feels right now, you are still here, and that matters.
Thank you. I needed to hear that.
@Lost&Found I hope you have a better day tomorrow.❤️
@AnonymityK I wish you the same.
I've been bedridden with anxiety and haven't eaten much. I tried going on a walk and broke down halfway through to cry. It kind if helped my physical anxiety but hasn't helped my ocd much. ERP is so difficult. It just makes me exhausted and anxious and cry. And I don't even feel a little better afterwards, so what's the point? I get I'm supposed to build up resilience but when? when do I finally feel some reward? I'm suffering, I don't have the energy to fight these thoughts when all the thoughts I have are rumination or intrusive. Medications haven't worked for me either. Maybe I'm not going to get better. Happy new year to me.
It hurts so much, so much pain, I want to give up, I feel like both conditions make each other worse, trying to fight back, trying so hard not to look for answers but this makes it so hard, I just..feel like I have very little hope, I'm so......so tired.
My mental health is declining due to ocd. It’s like a huge mix between ocd episode and depression wave. I feel weak and hopeless. I wanna cry. I’m exhausted . I feel like I’ve lost myself again.
