Hanging out with ur boyfriend is an exposure. Do it. Practice it. Remember OCD attacks things that are important to you.

I was doing the same and afraid to even speak to him cuz when I did I was anxious and overthinking and over analyzing everything. But little by little it wore off because I was enjoying my time with him. I almost had a panic attack the first time lol I kinda did and sometimes it’ll come up again and I’ll feel shitty but found lots of exposures and affirmations to help ease it, u can do it :’) I believe in you!!

@Anonymous I just remember I’d push myself to hangout with them or talk to him without going deep into thought and giving myself a sort of saying in my head saying to feel this anxiety and then let it go. I never pushed it away because I remembered that makes it worse, so I pushed myself head on like no hangout with him even if it’s scary and sucks to feel this anxiety. Because if you avoid him or whatever you’re trying to avoid, it is telling ur brain it’s true or a threat!

it’s not that I’m gonna regret it, it’s just the fact that I just wanna be happy when I’m with him, I truly do love him I’m just so scared that anxieties gonna ruin our time together

i feel bad for posting (includes 18+) pls read
my bf knows abt my googling and talking with chat bgt but does not know about this app, he is at my house and now im alone bc he is at the bathroom and he told me to not google and things but im confused idk what i feel i want to feel good and happy, i was good amd happy today, but now i have a lot of thoughts, my libido is low and i found it hard to kiss and do sexual things. Im scared i will br like this forever amd that i will never want to have sex (i am a virgin) , i will be 18 soon and i hate that i am like this. Im so scared i will never want to do this. i want to, but i always feel strange and my thoughts attack me making me feel so bad. i hate myself for posting here bc it is a compulsion and i feel like a liar, he loves me so much :(
