Heyy @chlo_0e, I am Luie, one of the support mentors with Ditch the Label (DTL). First of all, take a deep breath — it’s completely okay to feel the way you’re feeling right now. A lot of people who come to DTL feel uncertain or overwhelmed at first, but I want to let you know that you're not alone in feeling this way. We’re really glad you’ve joined our platform and community! It’s really great that you’re reading through the articles, they can be super helpful. You're not the only one, and many people here will relate to what you’re going through with OCD and anxiety. I noticed you mentioned that people around you have said you might have mental health issues. Have you received an official diagnosis for OCD or anxiety from a professional? Or is this something you’ve read about or heard from others? If you haven’t had a diagnosis yet, it might be worth checking if there’s an opportunity to speak with a professional where you’re based, just to get a clearer understanding of what’s going on. Is this a possibility? Also, I want to make sure you feel supported, so you have two options: you can continue getting advice and support from the community here on the forum, or you can message us directly for confidential 1-on-1 support (On the main page, scroll all the way down and click on 'GET SUPPORT NOW' button, it will take you to the confidential support page where you can make a request and send it across to us) . Which option do you feel would help you best right now? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
