Any advice on getting back to reality?!

This sounds like the kind of situation where you need professional help, especially with the OCD tendencies. If you currently have a therapist, try getting in contact with them. If not, if you're in an emergency, the emergency room exists for mental health emergencies as well as physical emergencies.

No it's not an emergency. Thank you for the advice it's very much appreciated. I've no therapist, I'm aware of the danger of the internet, I've been confident, fucnctional and OCD free for well over two years. This red pill thing caught it off guard while I was sleep deprived and vulnerable causing a horrendous relapse which went on for days continuously with insomnia and obsessions, I must have read more than I did in college lol. it was like I was in a trance. Now I'm trying to deal with this aftermath and amount of toxic poison injected into my mind. Think it was some mgtow curiosity on YouTube which lead me to Reddit redpill. Thank you guys again for the friendly and helpful advice.

Yeah I did thanks, I'm a lot better now. OCD flare ups are intense and feel real while they last but once they calm down things start going back to normal. I'm just filled with a lot of resent now towards the cult movement, but also empathy in particular for the vulnerable young minds that may stumble across it. Thanks again for the ex red pill and all the support. You're definitely helping people who have been adversely affected.

Turn off your computer, get in touch with your therapist or get to an emergency room ASAP.

When you have a mental health condition like OCD, depression or anxiety, there are quite literally traps on the Internet that can "lock" you into a way of thinking about something by striking an emotional chord inside you and making you try to connect an idea to the world around you. THIS IS JUST A TRICK.

Find a new focus, abandon the game of trying to make the pieces fit, it won't lead anywhere healthy.

If you're not having an emergency crisis, while you wait to see a doctor or therapist, try to focus on maintaining yourself. hydrate, eat a proper meal and get sleep. If you have any friends and family you can talk to, try to reach out so someone can help ground you again. Sleep deprivation also makes your mind play tricks and you will think you're working on something productive and valuable when you're just spinning in circles.

If you're actually in that state, you may need medication and you need professional help. You need to become stable first.

Still, get some help. You need maintenance to keep yourself in check. We’re all proud you have been symptom free for the most part! However, we all need tune ups from time to time. I suffer with anxiety and I need medication to keep myself in check. I need a therapist from time to time to help rethink myself.

I’m happy you made it though! The Red Pill is a fascinating thing, no doubt. It can lead to a dark place and you don’t want to be there. Please consider seeking some help to keep you on a good path! If you’re becoming ill as your OP says, then please check into the nearest ER to get yourself checked out.
