OCD and Bipolar together suck. I have an obsession with my cats. They are my life. I obsessively worry about them and have compulsions with them. I also have bipolar which makes it so the anxiety and hypomania make me want to obsess more. I can't leave the house right now and my hoarding has reached new levels. My obsessive thoughts make me worry that my cats are in danger.
I lock the door and check it constantly throughout the day and night. I worry so much about my cats in paralyzed. Well one of my cats ran away for two days and came back limping and had pain in his ribcage. He was hit by a car. I took him to the vet and had him treated. I watch him constantly. My obsessions have reached new levels. Then depression hits from bipolar and I can't get off the couch. I slow down and then speed up. My thoughts run wild. I want this to end but I know it never will. Dual diagnoses suck. Why me? Why do I have to go through this?

I'm so sorry, Sunshinesworld
 It must be really hard to deal with. Please don't give up. Do you see a therapist? Maybe that could help. Are your meds helping? If not, perhaps you could ask for a change of meds. Hopefully you'll be able to find the right meds combination for you. I hope things will get better for you soon. It's clear that you're trying your best to cope. Be proud of yourself for that. I'm also sorry to hear about your cat. It's not surprising that you'd be worried about him. Try to hang on. You can do this! Like raging vortex has said, you're strong, I'm sure of that. I hope writing here helps a bit. Feel free to PM me anytime. Let me know if I can do something to help you. Sending many hugs to you

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
