My contamination OCD has gotten very bad and my dogs have ringworm. My husband is taking care of me, our son, and the dogs and it has gotten to be too much.

@compulsion5000 Yeah. I love them and don't want them to go but right now they are quarantined and need a ton of care. I could probably convince my husband to stick it out if I knew I could get where I need to be to take care of them and not see them as contaminated but I know that's a ways off. I can't keep them in a pen forever, you know?

@messengervl My husband and I had a similar experience. Very similar with dogs. It really sucks. I now have a digital pet gold fish...

@pulji0107 I think the line "if you really love your dogs" was over the line tbh...

I really think a group for parents with ocd would be helpful... everytime I see a post by another mom ots uncannily on the mark relatable for me

I agree. It's a unique thing that other sufferers can really be the only people to understand sometimes

Regarding the back and forth that was deleted with the girl saying if you really loved your dogs you would overcome your ocd... please don't let her get to you. I feel like that was over the line. You are a good mom and you are making a difficult decision because it's best for your family. Family is more important than pets at the end of the day and even so it will be better for the dogs to be in a home that can provide them the best care. Please do not be hard on yourself. I have been there and I think you are making the best decision in a difficult situation.

I must have missed some of it because it's gone now. Thanks. I don't think people get that this is a decision of compassion for everyone in the situation, but me giving up on my little pups. I love them so much and I've been crying non stop since deciding this.

I really don’t know what to do with myself anymore
(21+ ONLY: TRIGGER WARNING) I love my dog. He just turned seven months old yesterday. But sometimes, I get so frustrated. I came home from work and I just wanted to sit down and relax and watch my favorite TV show. But then he started jumping on me, barking, and getting into things he shouldn’t be. On top of that, I was feeling lightheaded because I haven’t been taken Zoloft lately, which is completely my fault and irresponsible of me. My dog got into a laundry basket and tipped it over, spilling all the clothes on the floor and grabbing a pair of socks. I just lost it, at that point. I chased him and yelled at him and as I went to grab the socks from him, I thought about hitting him. I don’t think I did, but I don’t know. Either way, I’m truly disgusted with myself. I hate that that was my first automatic thought. What is wrong with me? I put him in his kennel for time out and I completely just lost it. I started crying and hyperventilating. I feel horrible for feeling sorry for myself when I’m not the one hurting here. I’m truly a disgusting manipulative POS that deserves to be locked away forever
