Title. Ever since me and my (ex) girlfriend broke up a year ago it’s been completely downhill. My OCD has gotten severely worse, to the point where I have constant intrusive thoughts over quite literally everything I do. I constantly wash my hands and preform compulsive rituals. Every girl I’ve tried to talk to either ghosts me or it doesn’t work out. I’ve given up on school. I graduated from EMT school and I just need to pass my final exam to get my license, and I haven’t studied at all due to my severe depression. I have one “friend” who I work out with sis times at the gym, but I would hardly call him a true friend, more like a gym buddy.

I’ve started drinking and smoking cigarettes again, and a hour doesn’t pass by where I don’t think about killing myself. I’m grateful for my family, I have decent savings, a nice car, etc but none of it matters because my severe OCD combined with my absolute failure with women has left me a broken shell. I would buy a gun to shoot myself but I was admitted to a mental hospital a couple years ago so I don’t think I could get one.

Does anyone have any advice? I’m 26 btw if that matters at all.

Haha yup. Sounds like me.. was engaged, believed she was the one, bitch was a bitch. Moped about her for years. Had super OCD (found out later from a shrink it was high intellect). Used that fucking OCD for a career in law, memorized and OCD that shit, kick ass in it, met a woman with a sense of humor that’s not so much as a bitch as the last, but fucking more gorgeous, married for years, old bitch lives in a trailer park - doing well.


Easy to focus on the now - don’t, pro-tip.

God you americans have it so easy, I swear you don't deserve anything good ever

Literally all you have to do is get on meds, get psychotherapy and do something purposeful and fulfilling
Everyone in my country would kill to have your faggot life

Yep, sucks being a conquered plebeian. Start another war, we’re here.

We get the good life cause we won. You lost.

Nah, just the young ones here and there. We all mostly man up eventually. Some get a little too tied with the soft, comfortable side. But they show their bones.

We are rebels after all. Nothing will ever change that. Shit girlfriend, we rebel and prove them wrong. Shit parents, we rebel and prove them wrong. Shit job, we rebel prove them wrong. Shit lot in life, we rebel and prove them wrong. We don’t quit.

That’s what we do. ;)

Exactly my point, just keep brute forcing your way through life without ever addressing the issues
This is why america is so mentally fucked, no wonder so many autistic virgins
