i cannot emphasise enough how much you need to create something. anything. it doesn't matter if you suck. you don't need to monetise it, or make it your career. you can restart an old hobby; you can start from scratch. it doesn't matter. you just need to hold something and be able to say "i did that". baking, drawing, painting, writing, coding, crafts, whatever. make something ! you cannot have all your hobbies be a form of consumption. it's fun, it's great in its own right. but the single best action to make yourself feel better, to calm your mind, to gain self esteem, is to Create

you are going to be okay. things won't be the same and that's okay.

Different does not mean bad, change is hard but it brings good things and new opportunities

[plaidparadscha]

You will not stay stuck in the same patterns forever. You are capable of change. It might be small and you may not be able to see the change day to day, but over time things will get better.

if you have violent intrusive thoughts I love you. if you have sexual intrusive thoughts I love you. if you have bigoted intrusive thoughts I love you. you are not your thoughts and you are worthy of love and care and help and affection. you are not a monster you’re a person going through it and that’s okay

Feeling guilty while also having Ocd is the worst feeling ever.

I’m already feeling guilty and my Ocd is just making it worse and I’ll start ruminating about it constantly and it’ll be about something I did when I was 12.

Reminder that OCD doesn’t stand for organizing and cleaning disorder

People with OCD

Can be messy and disorganized

Can have terrible cleaning habits

Can be comfortable getting dirty

Can exist in dirty and/or disorganized environments without discomfort

OCD stands for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, not everyone’s obsession is with cleanliness, not everyone’s compulsion is to organize
