"I think that my OCD thoughts are getting worse. I am not 100% better. I cannot watch a video, movie, or tv show without having the fear of someone cheating or being cheated on, particularly with a lot of people.

I have been feeling dizzy all weekend long, plus I have been nauseated. I have tried to enjoy life, but now I have come to a realization that life will be hard because I have to deal with these issues every single day. I should go to sleep, but I am afraid to.

It is not as bad as it used to be, but there are times when I wait for the world to end. I have been having thoughts about racism and I have not written in a journal in months because I thought I was getting better, but right now, I am getting worse. After a fun holiday season, I am down. I need help and I don't know what to do. I just need someone to talk to.

My answer:

Your best bet right now is to do what you were keen enough to observe for yourself ... and that is to get some sleep.

Sleep can be quite restorative and just may put your racing thoughts / worries at ease for a little while. Sort of a respite from all of the mental anxiety that you've been experiencing.

Additionally, no need to worry about the world ending abruptly. Leave it up to God to decide just when that will occur. OK? A lot of things need to happen between now and then for that prospect to come to pass. If you study your Bible, you'll see that certain things need / will occur before the world as we know it passes away.

Pray. Hope. And don't worry.

Best wishes,
