Yourself or someone like you

Hey guys. Unfortunately having one of those days. Harm OCD has a way of trying to make you believe something so unlike you or against everything you believe in. Last night I felt I was at the end of my road. Its like I hear myself taking to myself and of course my better half always win. It can be very depressing and such a mood killer. I try not to engage in compulsions so I just sit there until the thoughts past. But honestly sometimes I feel like this pic; dark, lonely, end of my road and hopeless.
