    Only people who suffer with OCD truly understand what it is like to really live with this devastating illness. I myself have sufferd with OCD for 33years. I sometimes get the impression that some people believe we suffer with a mild form of anxiety when in reality we suffer with an illness that can at times cause undiluted terror that shakes you to your core. Anybody that suffers with OCD needs all the love, compasion and support they can get. Fortunately I have a very supportive wife which helps. Thank you for the supportive videos you post on here, i find them very beneficial. Best wishes for the holiday period and the future.

    Thank you so much Chrissie, I cried watching this video because I really needed it right now, recently my OCD changed themes for the first time and it has been hard. I tought that I was gonna hit rock bottom again but I didn't because I have the tools u gave us, it's been a hard year for me and being reminded that other people in the world gets what im going trough is super helpful.
    I hope you are doing fine and thanks for your hard work, we love you and care about you too! ❤ I found my place in this community because of you and I will be forever grateful

    Thanks a lot lovely Chrissie. I started with this disorder when I was just 12 years old and during all my teenage years I felt scared and lonely, but now, with 22, I'm better, and I'm sure that we can get it together. We're brave warriors. I'm praying for all of us.

    Even with all the BS I have been through I still refuse to accept this diagnosis of OCD. At first I had a great feeling because I had finally found a reason for my lifelong struggles. Now as I thinking of getting therapy, something is telling me I am just using scrup/ocd as an excuse to remove my guilt. It like my brain is just refusing me any self compassion at all even in the b depths of my despair I am stilll condemning myself.

    • @brightmooninthenight2111

      I relate 100 percent.. I completely relate. Same boat. I feel like im using OCD to pretend I'm not actually evil, to excuse it and not take responsibility for being such a sick and demonic person.
      I feel like such a narcissist and I am.. but this mental disease destroys everything I do. I couldn't work because of it, I couldn't participate in volunteer projects because of it. I have mental breakdown right in the middle of work.
      I obsessively try to figure it out then I am narcissistic
      So I try to ignore it but then i am in denial and avoiding it
      So I try to figure it out then I am self absorbed. So I join a commune to ignore it and focus on others and I am having mental breakdowns and had to leave. Double bind
      Since we feel so sinful and wretched we cannot love ourselves and remove the shame. So what do we do?
      I did bad things years ago and I don't know why I did them and I can't forgive myself. So the scrupulosity is impossible because there was a real crime years ago to back it up.
      I just feel like I am satanic

    What if you’ve had multiple themes and as soon as you feel better about one theme it feels like it attaches to another one …. Is that ocd or denial
