So I’m posting on here in case anybody can help me out. Ive just got into a relationship and I’m worried I might have done something to some nude photographs of my ex girlfriend which were in my phone when I am with my current girlfriend. The problem is I cannot remember. I remember waking up and looking at my window and my brain went : ‘what if you did this when you were with your girlfriend’ and ever since I’ve been spiralling trying to figure out if I did it or not, recalling past events and trying to remember anything and the only think I can thoroughly remember is when I was single. I also deleted all the images. I also feel like it’s manifested from other OCD, I was worrying I was talking to other girls and ended up asking them when we last talked to which they said before me and my girlfriend met which gave a lot of relief. Problem is when I think about a time it could have happened my brain throws all these images into my head and I cannot distinguish what is real and what isn’t. I ended up confessing about these thoughts to my girlfriend and she said that it’s nothing and she doesn’t care and the worse case scenario is that nothing happens and that we move forward like we have been. I still feel enormous guilt because it feels like I’ve done something wrong and I cannot shift it. I don’t know what correct exposures to do which would help me out with dealing with these thoughts. Every time I get reassurance off my girlfriend it feels good but then the thoughts keep coming back around and constantly ask things like : ‘what if you did, what if it’s not the OCD and you just can’t remember something that actually happened’. I can’t distinguish what’s real and what isn’t and it’s pretty distressing. I can’t help feel guilty over something that I might not even have done and also get a constant urge just to say to my girlfriend that I did it to relieve the anxiety. Any advice would be appreciated.

So i had really bad pure ocd but recently it’s been sooo much better but i’m in a relationship and me and my bf dated before about 2 years ago then we broke up and now we are back together but i’m having an issue where i will try to go back years and find something i did wrong and i really do not want to find anything to feel wrong about or guilty specifically something i may have done wrong to my boyfriend but the thing is i’m a good girlfriend and i’m very loyal so i don’t want to ruin something for me because of my past if that makes sense like i can’t remember doing anything wrong but my brain keeps going are u sure let’s look at all your interactions with people and it’s so annoying i just wanna live my life in the present does anyone have any tips

I have false memory real event ocd, I’ve been married 13 years and I used to constantly bring up past mistakes from when we were dating and it RUINED our marriage, but I got medication and therapy and things got better untill a few weeks ago where everything crumbled. I have a memory that is 13 years ago of me being intimate with my husband (than boyfriend) while being intimate I have a memory of sending a text to a male who obviously liked me but I didi not while my husband was under the covers . And I keep thinking over and over how disgusting and inappropriate it was to do that especially doing it in the middle of being intimate 😞. I have confessed this to my husband last year and he didint believe me saying it’s probably a made up memory and would are not a slut and wouldn’t do that. Now i have guilt all over again for weeks and it’s taking such a toll on me it’s all I think about and try to remember every detail I’ve thought about it so much I don’t even know if it’s 100 percent true. But I can vividly see it when I close my eyes. How do I get over this guilt without confessing? Confessing would absolutely destroy my husband.

So I have been struggling with the same theme of ocd for 4 months now. My ocd centers around past events/false memories that ocd skews to make seem bad or it twists my thoughts on what my intentions were. this is related to cheating or being weird while I have been in my amazing relationship. I have never cheated on my partner and never will and I believe it is wrong. But my ocd is telling me other wise. I love my partner so very much and I would never want to hurt him but my brain is getting to me. I was getting better. I was trying “maybe I did, maybe I didn’t”, I have been back on meds and in therapy and I stopped confessing random interactions from years/months ago about 1.5 weeks ago and it really helped. But now I woke up this morning and feel the pit in my stomach again. I feel extra critical and like why would you do this? What does this say about you? What was your intention with this? And I’m just stuck mentally reviewing and ruminating on everything you could imagine. I know my personality and I know in the moment maybe I did find them attractive but mainly I was just being nice or funny or even just a good friend, but looking back now I’m like “was it flirting?” “Why did I still snap this person” “why would I even talk to them” and stuff like that. I feel this intense sense of guilt. I have told my partner everything that I keep getting stuck on and he didn’t care, he said he understands or “that’s a little weird but it’s okay” and hasn’t missed a beat. He said eveything I’ve told him is normal and I’ve heard that from my friends too. I just really need help. I don’t know what to do anymore. I am so disappointed because I thought I was gonna be done with this, so why am I still so worried and caught up in this.
