I’m sorry this has happened. My husband actually moved out the beginning of the year for similar reasons. I love the cliche quote, “if they don’t love you at your worst, they don’t deserve you at your best.” I say this with a grain of salt. My issue, which is why I downloaded this app, was that I didn’t get the help I needed. I ruminated in my anxiety with pride. I believed that I could handle it on my own. However, this is too big of a monster. And help is necessary. My advice to you would be, take care of yourself mentally and physically. After you’ve done the work, find someone who is strong enough to catch you. People with anxiety are tough. We may not feel like it. But, to go to through what we go through on a daily basis is challenging. You deserve someone who can match your strength. I hope this helps.
f him lol like if he doesn’t want to have ever part of you then he obviously wasn’t that amazing anyways. someone who really loves you will truly love ever single part of you, so his love was obviously never true. You’ll die for someone you love, right? so if he would die for you, then why wouldn’t he stick around with you? exactly... it doesn’t make sense. it’s because he never really loved you. sooooo f him
Update: he asked for me back and he also was just going thru a stressful time and just needed to clear his thoughts!!!! Thank you for all ur support
He was usually so good at helping me and listening but last night I brought up my doubts and he kinda just shut down and said how me being unhappy makes him unhappy and stressed and I’ve been giving off negative vibes lately Bc I’ve been stressed and how he loved me but didn’t feel a spark anymore and lost feelings:( he was the best part of me and he made me grow and idk how he could just throw us all away
I agree. It kills me when people only want to come around during the good times, disappear during the bad yet day they love you.
It hurts like hell:( he was the only person I ever trusted fully in my life:( and he was my safe space and my best friend and he just threw that in the trash and now I’m stuck loving someone who doesn’t even love me
Does he want to work on things?
No I begged him to give me another chance and let me fix things and I told him I could work on me and make it less stressful and he just told me to stop making the decision harder than it already is and just to accept it:( I’m not ready to give us up yet tho
:( I’m sorry. You know what, though, if you truly want him back, be so unavailability and flourished that he will hate he didn’t stick around :)
My boyfriend of almost two years just broke up with me. I’m hurting a lot and the ocd has skyrocketed because of it, especially since I haven’t been feeling the best already. I also always have a physical reaction to stress, and have been dealing with feeling sick all night. Does anyone have any tips or advice for how to deal with this?
I just went through my first breakup. My ex and I dated for almost 5 years and the breakup was mutual but it still hurts so much. I had ROCD throughout our entire relationship that I’m sure took a toll on us both but what led us to the end was completely separate—he hurt me in a way I couldn’t get past after it happening multiple times before. Even though the breakup was mutual and I know we need this to move forward either with or without one another, I am in so much pain. We both are still in love with the other and it’s making this breakup 10x harder because I am freaking out over whether or not I overreacted and I am throwing away something amazing just because of my ROCD sabotaging everything for us. It wasn’t the only issue but I guess I’m freaking out thinking it could’ve been the root of many of my frustrations. I just feel nauseous and depressed and exhausted (I can’t sleep). I guess I just need some guidance here. I have no idea how to navigate a breakup, let alone one where OCD is involved.
Does anyone have any tips for a breakup when you also had/have ROCD? Just found out a few days ago that my partner of 8.5 years was having an affair and he doesn't want to be with me anymore. My heart is completely broken. I had spent the last year healing from ROCD and had genuinely got back to a place where I felt more certain again and back in love but now I have no idea where all of that fits in my life now. He also blames me hurting him as one of the reasons he cheated which is so unfair. I know I hurt him because I did confess all my thoughts to him before I knew what ROCD was, but since learning about it and healing from it I tried so many times to share that it wasn't ever actually about him but he never really understood. He never asked me about this side of my mental health, he just maybe wasn't interested and I'm so angry and upset about that.
