OCD

House

Naomi's POV

Six months ago a car hit me, I was in a coma once again and woke up three months later. Here I am now in my house, locked up in my bathroom with a razor in my hand I'm counting the pros and cons of dying, the top of my pros is stopping the pain I have felt from a long time, and the top of cons is making my family suffer once again.

I'm being selfish but I also want to end this, I'm tired of counting, not being able to sleep and everyone looking at me like I'm a freak. I want to end the exhaustion and be in peace.

What should I do?, what my heart says or what my brain says?, or I could just keep on going and act like I'm in control and happy.

"What the heck!?" Lea screams coming in my bathroom.

"Give me that" she snatched the razor out of my hand.

"What are you doing?" she asked with concern.

"What does it look like I was doing?" I ask not caring at all.

"I told you to come to me" she says and scoops me into her arms.

I couldn't contain myself any longer, I bursted out crying and she started rocking me back and forth.

"Let's go into bed okay?" she says and kisses my forehead.

She carries me into my room and lays me down, she laid beside me and I laid on her chest, she started stroking my hair as darkness overtook me.

———3 hours later

Lea's POV

I woke up to Naomi crying, I turned around and she wasn't in bed.

"Baby girl, what's wrong?" I got up and turned on the light, she was curled up in a corner and sweating she suddenly started hyperventilating.

"Baby breathe, in and out" I told her as I got closer to her. I kneeled down and put her head on my chest.

"Focus on my voice and follow my breathing" I told her.

"Everything's okay, you're with me now don't worry" I told her, she looked up and then hugged me.

"Was it a nightmare?" I asked, she had tired bloodshot eyes.

"Y-yes" she said still scared. I carried her to bed and stole her hair, she fell asleep once again.

How have we never noticed about what was happening to her, everyone saw her ways of acting as something "normal", she clearly is suffering and having severe anxiety plus she isn't taking her meds anymore.
