Even my dreams have taken on this dark tone. I use to enjoy my life, be able to relax and see the good in things, now I feel this dark energy has taken over the way I view myself and the world and I don't know how to get out of it. I am so confused as to if it really is something I am creating and that is wrong with my persona or just a deep depression and OCD. I have been seeing a psychologist, but so far I am not making much progress. Any thoughts would be appreciated
I agree with Rohag that a treatment goal is important. I understand why you might think it is more than depression and OCD. However, I just feel what you describe is depression with OCD, I would be curious about what your psychologist thinks. A lot of what you described is what I have felt in the past and ATM as I am working on a major depression.
