Your OCD does NOT define you. It might feel real and etc, but it is NOT real and will never be. Remember that

Hey, I feel the same way. I can't look at anything the same anymore. And my OCD kills me, but it's not true. I recommend you to seek treatment immediately. I've seen you on here countless times, and I'm worried about that. Please get help, you need it in the long haul.

I’m so sorry idont241. Have you thought about teletherapy? If you have a laptop with a camera and wifi you can have therapy sessions in the comfort of your own home! I know therapy can get expensive, but there are facilities that do a sliding scale based on your income!

(corny statement alert) I’d like to think we’re all in this together, and it will help some of us to, at the very least, not feel like we are the only people on the planet that struggle with this invisible disorder!! I hope you’re travels are fun and even though the thoughts and feelings will come, try your hardest to use those times as practice in letting them be there. It’s like trying to hold a ball of burning coal. The coal is going to be hot (the thought will be scary) but all you have to do it put it down and let it roll away by itself (you don’t have to inspect it and pull it apart and look for where it came from- you’ll get burnt!) Good luck!!

Of course! We all have our really really low moments. (Me yesterday). But I’ve been practicing resistance as hard as I could and let me tell you- it works.

So I’m scared I lost feelings for my girlfriend of almost 9 months and I feel like it’s my mind overthinking and anxiety. I talked to her about it and I started crying to her because I don’t wanna break up with her. I care about her being a good person and all and just making sure she’s okay but I don’t wanna lose feelings and I would do anything to get them back. I had the biggest crush on her and seeing her with other guys before we dated even broke my heart for weeks. I wanna live a life with her but it hurts because I think I lost feelings.

Hi everyone, I’ve been struggling a lot with my thoughts and feelings about my boyfriend. He’s an amazing person—kind, loving, and supportive—but I constantly feel like I’m faking everything. It’s like I’m a liar pretending to love him, and deep down, I don’t actually want to be with him. Whenever he tells me he loves me or shows affection, I feel guilty because I think, What if I don’t love him back? It feels so real, like the truth is staring me in the face and I’m just refusing to accept it. I keep asking myself: Am I just staying with him because I’m used to him? What if I’ve never truly loved him? What if I’m a bad person for stringing him along? I don’t feel anything when we kiss or when he’s sweet to me, and that terrifies me. Sometimes I even feel irritated by him or like I don’t want to be around him, and then the guilt becomes unbearable because I know he doesn’t deserve that. This constant analyzing is taking over my life. I can’t even tell what’s real anymore. Am I lying to myself because I’m scared to face the truth? Or is this just my anxiety distorting everything? I feel like such a horrible person for even having these thoughts. If anyone has felt like this, please let me know how you managed to deal with it. I’m exhausted and just want to feel like myself again. he is also at my house amd i feel numb he tries to make me understand that i do like him and i feel so bad.
