I am considered about people in the New York City
area too. Is everyone ok?
An OCDTeen
Hi! I live in NY...not the city but I live in Queens, which is like an hour from the city.
And well thanks to God..when that incident happened I was on my way to college in Brooklyn.
Classes were canceled and I went home...so nothing bad happened to me.
Well thanks for caring =]
An OCDTeen responds:
I feel like thereīs so much pain that i canīt bear it.
Itīs unbelievable that so many people have died.
I want to cry for each and every one that was and is
hurt by this tragedy but my brain canīt take it in so i go around with a heavy load of anguish on my heart.
Itīs almost like i loath myself for being alive (when
so many people have died) and living in a world where
this can happen.
Iīve had suicidal thoughts for a while now and at
moments i almost wish i could take the place of
someone in the planes or the buildings that was happy
and loved this life.
want to take all the worlds pain and cry it away but i
canīt even cry for myself anymore.
**, I donīt understand why you have to suffer like
this but i wish with all of my heart i could take
your pain away.
What I do know for sure is that your life are NOT and
can NEVER BE pointless.
And youīre a good person whoīs caring and sensitive to
the point where it makes it hard for you to live.
It doesnīt matter if no one thatīs close to you
understand because know that I understand how hard it
can be.
So what you do is get another med or another therapist
and focus on the fact that youīre a great person.
Please let me know how youīre doing.
/Love, An OCDTeen
Another OCDTeen responds:
Don't feel bad. Everyone thinks their life is most important, because to them it is.
You shouldn't feel guilty...but sure i think this may enlighten us..
*hugs*
Another OCDTeen responds:
you cannot blame yourself for what happened, it was a tragedy, but dont wish you were on the plane.
you are a significant part of this world.
take time to
yourself.

Hey guys! I just wanted to assure everyone that I'm ok! I live in NY
but I'm not in Manhatten.
I hope all is well with everyone else, especially
those of you that knew people who worked in the buildings or were flying.
It's a traumatic time for everyone and my OCD has gotten worse because of it.
When I first heard the news I was so scared because my ****** does a
lot of bussiness work that has to do with flying, often in Boston and
Manhatten.
When he is in Manhatten he is usually in the building right next
to the Twin Towers.
My *** called my ***** who had just gotten ahold of him,
it turned out he had just barely flown out of Manhatten a couple days ago and
actually had planned to go back from Boston until this happened.
To those of you who need to talk to someone, I want each and every one
of you to know I'm here for you all.
Anyone else from NY please email me and
let me know you're ok!
Love you all,
An OCDTeen
I was really schocked after hearing the news yesterday !
Wat awful, there
are no words that can describe what happened in NYC.
Here in the Netherlands
is everybody in schock about what happened.
We had a debate about it in
class this morning.
We actually have a few people in class who are happy
about this !
This is just unbelievable. I mean, how can an adult be happy
about such a disaster ?
And this are people who are studying to become
social workers !
Needless to say that this resolted to outrage and that it
was impossible to go on with the lesson.
I hope that every one of you and
your families are allright and I want to let you know that I am thinking
about you in this difficult time and that my heart reaches out to you all.
If anyone needs someone to talk about this, e-mail me.
Take care and lots of
love,
An OCDTeen

of
the US are okj after hearing about all these terrorist attacks on the news.
it's dreadful and everyone is so shocked in England.

I hope that you are safe? I haven't talked to you in
awhile. I was just wondering if you are still on the
list?
Get back to me soon.
My thoughts are with you.
Your Friend,
An OCDTeen
GOD BLESS US ALL, AMEN!
Hi!
i will be the first person to say that i havent
spoken to very many people that are with the ocd group
but seeing this note you wrote really shocked me!!
we
as americans cannot let these terrorist drive us into
the ground if we surrender to our anguish it only
means that they have suceeded in what they set out to
do...
destroy not only america but the american
people. I would now like to say that for everyone
that feels this way that life is pointless and has no
meaning, that it really angers me!!! EXTREMELY!!!!
just like the british parliment said, whoever carried
these atacks out had no understanding of the value of
human life. We need to start realizing that life on
this earth is a greater value than any amount of money
and anything else and can be taken away at any second,
with no chance to repent or take back things we have
done in the past, suicide to me is so pointless to me
now that i have goten over it, and to hear people talk
about it at this time in our world disgust me,
I
suppose what i am saying is WE NEED TO UNITE AND NOT
GO INTO MENTAL BREAKDOWNS.
I know where youīre coming from.
But we canīt help feeling pain and anguish.
Turning it into anger can be healthy to a point but
dealing with all these emotions that way is not ok.
Thatīs when hate and prejudice takes a hold of people
and create violence and death and more sorrow.
Iīm alarmed when i hear bush speaking of this being a
great battle of good and evil.
Evil is not a religion, a country, a race or a man.
Evil is hate and death and sorrow and iīm so afraid
that heīll,in a twisted way, try to honour the victims
by causing the death of others.That is truly
surrendering to evil.
Donīt want to start an angry debate so please just
look at this as my opinion and consider it even if you
donīt agree with a single letter.
I donīt have all the answers but i do know that an eye
for an eye canīt be a solution to violence;
it hasnīt been yet and ALOT of people have tried it!
And about suicide, you must understand that for me
life has been painful 24/7 for the last couple of
years and this incident adds to that pain but i donīt
want to die and i got really angry on myself for
thinking about it when so many people actually lost
their lifes.
But realising life is precious and what a miracle
every moment is does not take away my suffering and
that is why i probably in a moment of selfpity thought
it was unfair for me to be alive
and struggling every minute of the day when people who
loved their life lost it.

f*** terrorists. i cried for a day over it and then got tough. you need to
be tough now to show the taliban "government" and underground cowardly
societies that americans have balls and that women are human beings and
intelligent as well. don't cry anymore-- it will only make you feel like
crap. i stopped eating for about 48 hours, cried, didn't shower, and stayed
home from school when all i should have been doing was buying flags and
newspapers, donating blood, and calling talk radio stations. don't
over-analyze this, it will only be a detriment to you. i know with ocd we
over-analyze. we're intelligent and sensitive, but we need to GET TOUGH.
be logical-- this is not WWIII, and with good democracy, this won't happen
again any time soon. don't worry.
take care everyone, and please, PLEASE, don't rely on nostradamous. take it
with a grain of salt. fate is inevitable-- the world has no superheroes.
all you are doing when you turn to nostradamous is creating apprehension in
yourself. i think we'll all agree that we don't need that. we are
perpetually anxious. try not to dwell on this hoax. fate, god, buddha,
satan... whatever. just be true to yourself and enjoy/ be grateful for what
you DO have and DO currently experience.
big hug,
An OCDTeen
Even if that is what *********** said, it makes no
difference, it doesn't have to happen.
If we knew
something bad was going to happen if we did a certain
thing, the easiest thing to do it to not do it.
Bush
needs to understand that he shouldn't surcome to the
stupidity of whoever did this.
If you guys can, I
don't know how, but if there is some way of contacting
the president,
please do so and tell him what you
think about what his decision should be.
If he decides
he is going to attack, them he is even more syupid
than those who did this.
Remember, it doesn't have to
be that way, and we can all make a difference.
Hey guys, how are you all? I can`t get what happened in New York on Tuesday out of my head, it`s just too terrible.
It makes me sick if I think for too long about it. Last night I was sitting with my little brother, and I just started crying uncontrollably.
I just kept saying, ''it didn`t happen, it`s not real''.
I ran upstairs and took a shower and felt a little better after I slept but I have been really nervous the past couple of days.
It`s strange but I wandered around for three days knowing what happened, and it didn`t sink in till last night.
Anyway, I like writing poetry, and I wrote this poem, and I`d really like to contribute to your memorial website. So, here it is.
Never lose faith
I also wrote a poem, several nights ago. It is hard for me to comprehend
whats happened, I was hoping it wasn't real.
World War 3 is not going to
happen. (i HOPE). I heard talk of the drafting policy coming into effect,
but talk is all it is.
I am scared, but the nation has it pretty much under
control. The really scary thing is, I only live 450 miles from New York.
Keep Faith.
Is the world going to end?????????
