I really hope that you might be in at the same time as me because after our long chats i feel i know you so we could be of great help to each other.<br /> You said if people on here new what you did they would be discusted ..... well i know several things about you Daniel but i think you are wonderful / marvellous to have coped with all your OCD obsessions / rituals for so long, and i know that our dear friend Tricia feels the same way about you.<br /> I do hope you have a better day today Daniel,<br /> Keep in touch , i wish i could do more for you sweetheart <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> <br /> Please keep in touch,<br /> love brennie <br /> xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/topic/feeling-so-low#post-31002 Wed, 23 Jul 2008 01:11:10 +0000 sammy 31002@http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/ hI OCDLONELY ,<br /> I am so sorry to read you are feeling so bad, this illness can make you feel like you have reached rock bottom can't it. im sure that your family would be extremely devastated if anything happened to you and they probably wouldn't get over it and they would im sure not be better off without you. I know how this illness makes you feel but when you think of the lovely friends you have made here it shows you that ocd affects lovely people and that includes you.<br /> have to go now (baby has woken up) but take care, sorry it was a short post http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/topic/feeling-so-low#post-31001 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 19:45:42 +0000 OCDLONELY 31001@http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/ I have been feeling so low. I don't know what to do anymore. There seems no point to my life. I have nothing to offer and I see no way out of the mess i'm in. I'm scared all the time and nothing I do makes any difference. I want a life but I can't carry on much more like this. I really dispise myself and can't imagine anyone wanting to know me. If people had any idea of the things I do and the state I'm in they would be disgusted. I want to fall in love but I can't see any girl or woman being interested in me. I want to be a father but how can I when I'm like this. There are so many things I want to do but this damn illness stops me. I wonder if I died would I be missed by anyone, I think my family would be upset but they would get over it and probably be better off for it. I have no friends other than the lovely people I have met on here. I'm so lonely. I just don't know if I have a purpose in life. What am I here for? I want to help others and make a difference but how can I when I'm like this? I just feel so empty and lost
