When you feel like you cant take another step walk another mile. There have been times where I felt like this and I was so consumed with worry and angst that I could barely eat or sleep, but trust me push through. He doesnt want to find someone else, and if he is worth it then he will stick around to help you through the darkest of times. OCD does not have the power to take anything away from you that matters to you, especially not true love.
I have felt this before too. But think of it this way... your bf chose you. He could have 100 thousand other people but instead, he chose you to be his 1 girl. That being said, if he loves you, he will be supportive and comfort you when you feel this way. Tell him a little bit about how you feel. If he decides to leave, then it wasn’t meant to be. But he will probably stay and be there to help. Pushing people away doesn’t help you. It makes it worse. Giving into these feelings is letting your OCD and intrusive thoughts win. All of those thoughts aren’t real. Your brain is trying to trick you.
good point^^^ and if you love someone you dont want anyone else.
i recommend therapy too
thank you for your responses, this has helped. it’s been a rough few weeks with rocd but knowing I’m not alone helps
Why does my OCD feel so real? One minute I’m so in love with my boyfriend then the next I fear I’m falling out of love and that I’m meant to be with someone else. I feel so numb and empty I just feel emotionless once the anxiety fades away. It actually feels as if my thoughts are true how can I just feel like me again
No ‘what ifs’ anymore- just direct statements sometimes ‘you don’t love him’ sometimes ‘I don’t want to be with him’. I can’t see any hope of feeling better- I don’t even know if this is OCD. This isn’t how love is supposed to feel- how do I know if my partner just isn’t the one? I did have really intense anxiety but could still feel that love and desire to be with my SO but now- it seems to be fading away. No more anxiety, intrusive thoughts feel a bit muddled up rather than loud, aggressive, specific thoughts. Help :(
When I look at my bf, I find him very cute etc but sometimes I dont feel anything… which I know is normal because you cant feel everything at every moment in your life… but the thing is everytime I think about us breaking up or him disappearing from my life, I feel like hes the “last” guy im ever gonna be with and then I’ll only be with women. Like whatttt?!?!? Whyyy?!
