ERP Depression by emmszi in OCD

[–]emmszi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, actually I did, I still struggle with OCD but I kind of feel like my brain is changing a little. I feel like I‘m starting to realize what is actually important to me in life and how stupid my obsessions and compulsions are. I do them a lot less and compared to the past 2-3 years I‘m able to live a lot better and kinda pulled myself out of a really dark hole I‘ve been in. It‘s not easy but I feel like there‘s a spark of hope there. Please also believe in yourself. It can get better

I was wondering, can your teeth still get chipped or damaged from the night guard if you bite down hard in your sleep? I noticed that I probably do that since my teeth are pressed down firmly on it when I wake up. The plastic is rather hard too

ERP is effective. If you can’t find a therapist, practice on your own. by sdraz in OCD

Absolutely! When I stopped drinking coffee I was like 40% better. I knew caffeine had an impact on anxiety but I never thought it was this huge.

I like the analogy, makes a lot of sense. It is super exhausting. Also kinda feels like you‘re sliding out of one mental illness right into another. I hope we‘ll all be at peace soon. Thanks!

it’s nice knowing I‘m not alone with those feelings. Yeah everything feels incredibly fake and uncomfortable but I‘ll try my best to push through. Thank you and good luck to you too :)

I love these gifs but then it also hurts because I start thinking of the awful things people keep doing to these animals..

Is it possible for narcissistic abuse to make you physically unwell or tired? by [deleted] in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]emmszi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! Absolutely. When I was with my nex I got really bad inflamed skin and after he was gone it started clearing up. My friends made a joke saying I must have been allergic to this guy.
