I have lost all social function, and i have an inability to create abstract conversation. I am bigging deeper into my thoughts, with no understanding how to change my direction and become more constructive...

I take that to mean you are on a waiting list of sorts.
Well, in the mean time, are you able to function to the point where you are fed, clothed, and sheltered and will continue to be?
Regardless, what is the nature of the thoughts that are filling your day?

I feel very similar at times. Sometimes I just want to crawl in a hole. Today I felt okay for awhile and then all of a sudden I got some intrusive thoughts and tons of guilt and my day is ruined. I can't talk to anyone now, so I know how you feel. I am also having a problem finding a doctor as there is such a wait to get in to see one. I wish this would just go away, so I can finally be happy.

Wow you guys have a wait to see a dr, that is so sad, your area must be full of patients. You need more doctors for the demand. I would keep looking for a doctor, even a different one. Try not only psychiatrists, but also psychologists. Can you move to a better place that offers more help? me, I'm just to lazy to see a dr. I can never make an appt. and I can never keep an appt. then I lose the dr.

While you're waiting to see a psychiatrist, there are many good books you can get from interlibrary loan. Just search the library catalog for obsessive compulsive disorder.

I've tried that, i can focus on the idea long enough to care. And if i get a book its very very hard for me to stay interested in it.

Maybe you have some ADD too? I do, and it can be next to impossible to read a book straight through. I usually flip through the books on OCD, reading parts here and there, until eventually I've read most of it.

Hi,
Can you go to your regular doctor? Mine has given me help in form of meds before. That could tide you over until you can see psychiatrist.
You sound very, very depressed. I've been there, and meds have been the only thing that helped.
I do hope you can see someone. Most doctors have heard of OCD and are willing to treat it, in my experience.
Sending you best wishes and support - don't give up.

Today im going through alot of feels of empathy. For this girl i heard talking yesterday and she was talking to a group of us and she mentioned this thing in her mind she liked thinking about, and it was exate same ideals i went through at the beginning of it all, and i thought it was the coolest thing too then. But know i hate it and want to be happy again. And to see her starting it makes me furious cause i want to help her but i can't even help myself stop these thoughts.
