I am not ocd, not me!

[AnonymousParticipant]

OCD felt so real that sometimes my heart ached all over. It almost felt like how will I ever get over this? I would hate myself so so much and think Why is this happening? Then my mind said no more panicking and freaking out. I stopped all those thoughts, those terrible horrible feelings. I said No, ocd will not let me hate myself so much. It felt so real and now I’m better! I advise you all to think today I’m having a great day! You too can recover and you’re life won’t be ruined by OCD!!!!
