Don’t do any assurance seeking!

I’m also resisting that ☹️ fighting the urge to tell my boyfriend how I’m feeling or look up reports or even look up if that intersection has a camera because I keep telling myself if it does there’s no way I’d get away with hitting someone and not getting caught .. ugh I feel so crazy. I also tell myself if I hit a person I would know and there would be damage but of coarse OCDs telling me “well you felt the curb” so what if that was actually a person.

Do not check!!! Sit through it! Not trying to give you reassurance but facts are facts-You have absolutely no evidence at all that this happened. Even if you try to check there is still no way to know for sure and you will not Gain certainty. It is a waste of time energy and mental space. But let’s say there is a .0001% chance that it happened. Accidents happen people make mistakes. People live and people die. You are only human and you do not need to be perfect. We don’t need to be punished for mistakes either as a lot of us with OCD believe. We are allowed to just make mistakes and move on. It doesn’t mean we’re horrible human beings. You are deserving of good things no matter what you’ve done.

Some advice please- I feel like my life is falling
I went out 2 years ago with some friends and I can’t remember some of the night - we went to a house party and my friends say nothing happened but I’m so afraid that I cheated on my partner and don’t remember it. It’s consuming my every minute and I can’t let it go. I was reading up on false memory ocd the other day and it triggered me into thinking what if something I imagined happening actually happened and I don’t know what to do and I’m scared that because I imagined something a certain way that if it wasn’t the same thing I imagined that it must be true

How do I get over this intrusive thought?
Hello, I was driving last night and i hit a bump in the road like felt like a massive pothole but the road i was driving on (i drive on it almost everyday) and i’ve convinced myself that I hit someone or something. I had my mom drive by there again about 20-30 mins later and there was nothing but she said it looked like a hole was filled by rain water. I drove by later that night and didn’t see it so I’ve convinced myself that if something happened, it was cleared out in that time. Is there anything I can do to help myself feel better.

Hit and run OCD
I was driving when I passed by 2 kids playing with a ball in their front yard, their ball made it to the street, I slowed down and continued my route and looked back to to make sure they’re ok and when I got home I started getting intrusive thoughts that I ran over the kid 😢
