I have OCD so bad it makes Monica on Friends look normal.
It sucks, as it's someone who I've known pretty much my whole life, and who I can normally have a really good debate with. But like, to tell me I can control that shit, is like beyond fucked up.
You can control it per say with medicine, but yeah acting like you can switch it on and off is fucking dumb thinking
I've wanted to get help, but with no health insurance(thanks America) I really feel like the cost would be a lot, and idk. But I had someone else on that same post tell me that one of the places around here money recently, to help people who don't have insurance. So, hopefully something can come from that. So I hope the meds if I can get some, do help some. But yeah, switching that stuff on and off isn't a thing,.
You can lower the cost if you use GoodRX, which helps people find low prices for prescription medicine, and that is good there is a place that around and hopefully does from it like you said because everyone needs help. And the medicine won't be a be all and cure all, but you'll be able to manage it better and have better days compared to not. Yeah, the switching motif is something I have heard a lot throughout my life and it always grinds me. Like yes, Karen I woke up today and was like "I am going to make myself feel like total shit, have dark thoughts, not do anything, and while I am at it I switch my OCD as on. Tomorrow though...I will turn it off for like three days." It amazes me how people can be like that
It's not right for somebody to tell you to suck it up and I'm sorry you was told that. I would cut ties with him immediately, because you didn't deserve that kinda treatment. And being upset, it's how you feel, not an choice or an opinion. Hell, we're all upset Blaze. I can't help it, you can't help it, nobody else can help it.
I have used that, or something like that for other meds before. But I meant more like, the visits or whatever, as I think it be helpful to have a professional to talk to. It like, really sicks how much it cost in this country to get help for mental health., But I'm not going to get to into that, So, hopefully this place can help me. Cause, shit sucks waking up feeling like I do sometimes. The folks who think its that easy, clearly never dealt with it before.
Ah, I misunderstood, and personal visits/therapy had done very well for me. So, I can speak from first hand experience it does help a lot especially if you get someone that can connect you, if that makes sense. So hopefully you can get into that place and get the help and all you need. And they have never dealt with it or in some cases they just ignore it, which is worse.
Mhm. Like I mentioned someone else on there mentioned help that’s in the area, and it being no cost because of some money they got like 3 months ago. He is going to talk to a doctor he knows there and then let me know something. So thankfully at least someone on it cared.
That is messed up and like telling someone with anxiety not to worry.
