Question: Do people suffering from OCD are prone to suicide?I fear that I may break down soon.?
I mean not da shopaholic/handwashing kind of disorder.serious ones who can't stop it to the limit of breaking down.especially when they have no one 2 care 4 dem n when they can't afford the treatment.I suffer from OCD.I didn't know what it was earlier called until i posted my problem n symptoms n was diagnosed with ocd.

This was what I posted.I don't know from where to start but I always go though guilt over not being able to save living organisms like ants,rice bugs during everyday work as they get killed by humans knowingly n unknowingly.I feel if i can't help them then i am bad.i can't study or sleep becauseof this worrying as rice bugs often get killed while i boil rice and i hate the pain they undergo.i try 2 save them but mom does not let me do so.when closing windows i worry whether any insect is dere as it might get killed.while going 2 da bathroom i worry about the small harmless flies that get killed when we pour water on the laterine when they are hovering around.this worrying makes it impossible 4 me 2 study or sleep peacefully.I keep on checking n rechecking while boiling rice for rice bugs,but my hand trembles later and my head hurts from worrying over it.I am so scared over it that I avoid waking up when my mom is boiling rice.Coz I can't keep on saving those insects all the time.I know this might sound insane and i try to convince myself of it.But then later I think of the pain that those insects go through when unintentionally they get boiled with the rice,or when the ants get trampled or when some other insect gets drowned in the sink and I feel bad.I am unable to live a normal life because of this.I told my mom to check rice well before boiling but then she says she doesn't has time for it and ignores my pleas and tells me to check it myself.but when i do it I keep checking n rechecking but then it takes a lot of time and still some get left is what i fear.after that too i am unable 2 concentrate on anything as i fear if some rice bugs are left behind n i feel guilty for unknowingly harming them.I tried to talk about it to my family but they get angry and start yelling at me. my family is unhelpful.

my elder brother is sex obsessed and my parents don't listen nor do they want 2 know their son's reality.during childhood he had made me do sexual activities,not forced ones but still i had no idea at that time what was going on.i fear dat i might have lost my virginity due 2 him at that time.i don't remember everyting.he watches porn a lot some rape porn too but most of the time incest porn.i am scared what he might do to his wife after he gets married and what he might do 2 his daughter if ever he has any.he acts like a good person.but he keeps on staring at my boobs.i feel so worse yet he often behaves good.told my parents once during childhood.dey shouted at me.from that day i closed down as i knew no one would believe.i lost my guts to say anything.i live in a small town of india and dere r no help groups here.and no counsellors in my college.I AM EXTREMELY UGLY TOO.NO RELIABLE FRIENDS.NO ONE 2 TALK 2.PARENTS ARE SO COWARD N INSECURE DAT DEY DON'T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE MY PROBLEMS EVEN AFTER THEY KNOW IT..THEY ARE TOTALLY UNHELPFUL.I can't stop bad things happening to those insects nowadays i don't even try to help them coz m also coward n m scared n imy head hurts.m tired.i want 2 die.if god can't help those insects den why would he help me as i no longer help those ants.i don't want to.i just want to die.coz i can't handle it all.I know what i do sounds insane and i don't want to do it like helping those bloody insects.I just want to study well,pass my exams,go to university,get a job and get some help from psychiatrist.But I don't think I will make that far.Its worse knowing there is no help for me and knowing that I am dying inside everyday.
I am 22 yrs old girl from a small town in India and NO THERE IS NO COLLEGE COUNSELOR at my ****** small college AND NO HELPFUL RELATIVE AND NO FRIEND EITHER.On top of that m too ugly n i stammer sometimes.go figure it out how well my life sucks.I am trying everyday to hold myself and not suck up into depression.But i can't do it anymore.But still I want to live a healthy normal life.Why is this happening to me.I have never hurt anyone.Then why do I have to suffer.I have tried everything.tell me how do i stop from being sucked up into the paranoia about insects dying getting hurt while knowing that i could help some of them like rice bugs and ants at my own home.But doing it makes me tired and I am unable to study afterwards.I can't go on like this.plz help.any words of encouragement.I don't want to die but I often feel like ending and putting a stop to this pain.

Answers:

OMG!!!!! CALM DOWN!!!!!

YOU ARE FREAKING YOURSELF OUT!!!!


YOU NEED TO SEE A DOCTOR AND START ON SOME MEDICATION TO HELP YOU REMAIN CALM AND KEEP YOUR OCD UNDER CONTROL BECAUSE YOU ARE ALLOWING IT TO OVERRUN YOUR MIND!!!!

TWO MEDICATION COMBINATIONS THAT HELPED ME ARE EITHER PAXIL AND ATIVAN ONCE A DAY BEFORE BED OR TAKE PROZAC AND BUSPAR TOGETHER.



wow. i actually read that whole chunk.

Well, for you to write that well. you are a normal smart person I will say. you don't seem like much of a big problem because you know what is good for you. But you are just overthinking. and it seems you feel you need to control everything!

(1) about the insects. believe it or not, I feel guilt with killing ants too. so sometimes i let them go when i see them pages on my book rather than slam them down with the book. I guess find it true that I do not want to kill a life.

but honestly.... there are tooo many ants to save. the population of ants are millions times more than humna beings they probably would take over the world if we humans dont kill them for a long period. Bugs are meant to be killed or prevented because they disrupt our lives, they harm our food, and lifestyle.

Some insect should be preserved and etc... I leave this job to the insect scientist , museum, insect interest people with the right machines, process and etc. i leave the insects to them to handle.

therefore i have no guilt in killing them sometimes. though i do still many times try not to kill them.
in fact.. eating of insects i heard have some proteins. we can eat them. while some are harmful to our body. you make your own choices.

I will say.... just enjoy life. come on! dont worry about such small matters and cause it to tear your life about. it is not worth it at all.

And yes you can study hard, get a job. and do whatever you want. You have the mind, healthy body to do so. Others who are born without parent, handicapped, lose limbs, dear, blind... have aids and etc do not have the chance to do so.. they are fighting for their daily life.

you and I can have a life we want. we just have to work hard and smart enough. and also learn to be nice and kind to help others have a better life. because no one can live life alone.

Justt learn to enjoy life. :D and be happy. you can. goodnight.



too long; didn't read. but as for your initial question in bold, i have OCD and sometimes i want to kill myself over it and everyone has a dif OCD and yeah, sometimes depending on the severity of them people can be pushed to kill themselves. but that's really not the solution because you can get medicine for it.
