I really need help
OCD & Related Behaviors / by amicableVillage548
Last post
 February 5th
...See more I'm 17 years old and I suffer from OCD. The situation is very stressful. I don't know how to describe my feelings, but I really need help. My life has been ruined since I got this illness. Everything is ruined. My life isn't going well. It takes me at least 30 minutes to wash my hands. I can't touch things normally. I've become very anxious and cry for no reason. This has affected my studies. My exam is in less than 20 days, and I haven't studied anything because I can't touch my books and pens normally. My studies depend on watching online educational videos. When I watch a video, I repeat the same part more than once, and this really wastes my time. I'm in the academic year that will determine my university major, and my previous grades were very bad. My parents are really keen for me to get excellent grades that will allow me to study medicine, and I doubt that. I really can't study, and no one knows what I'm going through. I can't tell my parents because they won't understand; they'll just make fun of me. Even my hair is literally ruined. Its thickness, length, and health have decreased, and my hair used to be very important to me. Actually, there are other things, but I can't express them All I know is that I need help and I really need a therapist before it's too late.
