The reason I chose the name Ri/Warrior is because living with OCD feels like a constant battle. From the little things like a song that my brain sings constantly even when I don’t want it too, to full blown crying and screaming because a ritual went wrong and my brain can’t handle and process it (this only happens once a year if that now but used to happen daily of not a few times a day). I may be medicated, have done 7months of intensive therapy and have a good support system but I struggle 4 years into my recovery. Who knows? One day I may be able to retire my sword and stop fighting and live a completely peaceful life without my OCD monster but that day has yet to be seen. I’m not giving up though :) ! Know if you have OCD and are reading this you aren’t as alone as your OCD monster/s make you feel. I’m here and nearly always happy to chat. Hope everyone is ok ❤️.
