i used to fixate on my husbands appearance. my ocd would tell me "he has a ugly nose" or "he has a big head" and convince me that i was no longer attracted to little things about him. i used to get so anxious and think "i need answers, why cant i love him the same". but that was what OCD wanted me to do, it wanted to trick me. it wanted to convince me that there was something i didn't love about my partner so that i would confess or find reassurance. i had to learn that when i got these thoughts, there was no reason to give answer to them. i just learned to accept that he wasn't perfect and neither was i and some days i didn't like him as much as other days. this is the same in any relationship.

me and my girlfriend since we started dating we be only had one problem, and that is my fear of everything of losing her of her cheating, and it’s all caused by OCD. my texts are massive and i get worried i know i love her and she makes me calm i know i love her. we had a conversation yesterday and basically she said that she feels suffocated with my texts and my fears. she went on trip were she doesn’t have her phone. and yesterday i spent the entire day crying about her. my head is filled with intrusive thoughts. and last night i got so stressed that it seemed like the love went away or i couldn’t remember the love, but it’s impossible because i was crying about her yesterday. this struggle my relationship is having is making me so stressed. pls give me advice

Anyone who’s conquered rocd I would love advice. I am in therapy but I have this one sticky thought that will not go away. I’m talking months and months. Sometimes whether it be a moment or on/off I think my partner looks ugly. It feels 100% true. This thought/feeling produces distress and guilt. I constantly am trying to figure out ocd and that’s turned obsessive. I’m constantly trying to understand what’s real and just understand what is happening to me and how to overcome this. I’ve struggled with different themes in the past, but this one is different with how the thoughts present (feeling so real immediately)

Hey guys, I’m reaching out in a pretty weak spot of desperation. I feel so insane and so sick of my mind recently, I’m completely drained from my mind. I’ve had such bad spikes of RCOD in my relationship of 1.5 years , which kills me because I truly want nothing more than to just be his peace and for us to work out. I love him more than anything and I would do anything for him. I feel like the pressure I placed on making sure I was “perfect” was so counter productive becuase instead I find myself doing everything wrong. I tell myself not to think of the wrong thing, then I think of the wrong thing, then I feel so guilty, and it plagues my mind for days. I feel so guilty it makes me feel detached and like I’m a bad girlfriend. I feel so bad for always burdening him with my anxieties and my “wrong thoughts” becuase he doesn’t deserve it, he’s so amazing. Recently, I began overthinking if I “love him” which I KNOW is so silly because when I’m calm, I laugh that I even got so worried , but when my anxiety creeps in, it feels so debilitating. I spiral and then try to prove to myself that I do love him , which then makes things in that moment feel “forced” because I’m acting out of intent to win the battle in my head. My RCOD has been a persistent issue, but this particular theme is pretty new and I hate it. I feel like I’ve been placing pressure on myself to overly appreciate him and it’s so counterproductive. I feel so bad because I told him about everything and he now thinks I don’t love him. Which is so wrong. I just want this to be fixed. Sometimes I feel like he’d be better off with a girl that isn’t such a headache and wouldn’t drain him all of the time but at the same time , I could never accept him being with anyone but me. Also, I have seen a psychoglist but it just didn’t feel right and I hated vocalising my thoughts because I felt it gave them more power - it feels like the only person I can truly be raw with about this stuff is my bestfriend. If anyone has any tips , PLEASE help me.
