Venting I Don't See Any Other Option

[Spectre]

Nothing gets better. My OCD keeps me in a mental prison. I lack the motivation to do anything. I lack any ambition, as everything I wanted to do now seems unachievable.

Is there ANY other slingshot option I could try for my life?

I've tried CTB but the idea of death keeps freaking me out. I've realized if I am going to do it it'll have to be impulsively.

There's always options. A lot of options. It's just that most of them are unappealing. But tbh death isn't that much better of an option anyway. Like you could always go save money to get a small property in the woods and live there. Or spend your time doing seasonal jobs traveling the world. Or just do a shit ton of drugs, idk. I get it tho, I have zero motivation too so the whole idea of doing anything is beyond daunting. If I had the money, I'd do ketamine therapy. I've heard it can help a lot with that kind of thing. OCD included.

I believe there are always options. I don't know much about your case, but if you want my opinion, physically and objectively speaking, it's very likely that you have options to move forward.

People with OCD often need a change of focus on certain things in their lives in order to move forward.
