I have been living with OCD since childhood until now. Half of my life is spent on dealing with OCD and Depression. It is VERY EXHAUSTING for me to the point that I have suicidal thought now. Please anyone could help me or share with me their similar stories dealing with OCD (mainly contamination or germs-related) and Depression in their lives.
Thanks so much for your attention and support. Best wishes for you all.
I have suffered with OCD. I still do. I am very careful about disinfecting everything. At one point I would freak out if something was out of place. I am still very much OCD about germs. I have learned that it’s ok to not have a perfectly clean house. This took time. Right now with all that is going on I focus on thing that are touched frequently. I just want to tell you I understand it being exhausting. Maybe try just cleaning the main stuff like door handles, light switches and things like that. Right now I don’t think it’s a bad thing to be safe and clean your hands a lot. If your home and you have cleaned your hands etc. you are safe!! I hope this helps and brings you a little peace of mind.
I have been suffering with OCD from since I can remember I struggle with germs and dirt, even putting on my shoes I will scrub my hands or use handsanitiser. My family do not understand they think It was a stage and that I should of grown out of it by now this causes me to become very depressed it lowers my self esteem and makes me think I'm worthless. Its got to the point where my hands are extremely dry and cracked.
