I really cannot state just how difficult and hard hitting OCD is as a mental illness. It’s a painstakingly painful distortion of the mind and something that you are ‘simply’ supposed to just.. let there. Let. It. There. Let. It. Be. These people truly are beyond describable in terms of their resilience, their utter.. push for mental survival, really. I say that with total honesty in my mind and heart. It’s always only ever been my particular dream to live well and, above all else, extremely comfortably, of course, on a mental level with my OCD. That’s it. That’s all that I need, really. I mean.. the rest may not happen in the same way or at the same pace of timing for me in my life, etc. but I’m okay with all of that. It happened. It’s hard. It’s being supported hugely by all of the people I know. All the time. And I will always do my very best to work with the imbalance as best that I can at any time manage ❤️ And it’s not a choice. Not a decision even, to get caught up time again in the OCD mental mind trap. It’s… an unbelievably important challenge on the sufferer’s part for us to be okay and to manage to rebalance our imbalanced brains as well as we can. That takes a level of mental and physical, too, nurturing that really is everything to the sufferer going forward. Everything 😊
