...See more So I was doing fairly better then this week, but then after my sinuses started acting up my anxiety and ocd came back, seemingly worse. The OCD is really driving me nuts, that whole "monkey mind" element, with constant but truthfully absurd ideas for contamination. Any support right now would be greatly appreciated because this feels almost crippling.

...See more I'm not even sure where to begin on this one, wasn't even sure about the title as there were words that I even attempting to type them were bothering me because they were just so negative. I've been dealing with all of this for years now, and now it's hitting me with something worse than I've ever felt before. I'm sure what I'm going through stems from depression (I am someone dispalced by the pandemic, it's clearly now taken it's toll on me mentally), but it's the anxiety and OCD that's just so brutal right now, I'm worried about the smallest thing possibly doing harm to me and I let it eat away at me. I've been trying so hard to just sit with it and let it be, to not fight it, and to have acceptance, but I just don't think it's working. Sleep now seems to come at a premium. And the tinest thing seems to just set me on a further downward spiral, just as an example I got into an argument with a friend about all of this late last night (he's big on medicating and I'm not based on prior bad experiences) we do eventually kinda mend it but for me mentally the damage was done. I don't know what else to do anymore. What kills me the most was that I was just fine, dare I even say better than I had been, about a week and a half ago, now I'm stuck in this horrible spot.
