I feel the same. No 2 days are the same and the theme changes frequently

I actually just ahd a baby on Mother's day ironically and my rocd has been considerably difficult since. I've been dealing with ROCD for 4 years but this is my second relationship I'm going through it in. I'm sorry you're feeling that way man. Big life events definitely make my rocd very intense. As if it isn't always to begin with lol. How long have you two been together? Is this your first relationship with ROCD?

Dude, me and my wife literally a couple hours ago just made the decision to start eating healthier and keeping more active. It's so weird that you are saying this now. I can't say my theme changes it's almost always relationship involved but the ruminations definitely change. I was in school for forestry and that was the one other big theme I had while going. I began to question really hard whether I was mean to do forestry. A reasonable question but when you find your self quitting every endeavor you've ever taken on, a pattern begins to become clear.

No topic is untouchable with OCD. It's ok if you don't want to share what your new theme is, but it's also ok if you do.

It's hard man. I know how much it sucks. Not fully believing that what you are going through is OCD and not the truth is the hardest part. You mentioned you deal with other sub types as well?

You mean rocd specifically? How long have you been dealing with OCD in general? You mentioned having other themes. The more stressed I am the worse my OCD is. Stress is one of my focal points lately. I also have a 5 year old boy and whenever I'm having a bad rocd day everything he does or says feels so stressful to me I feel like I can barely take it.

Atleast it's coming down for now, it gives you a minute to breath lol. I was cheated on and left by my first kids mom so some times I find myself perpetuating that onto my wife. For instance, my wife recently talked about wanting a nose ring. My thought was, my ex got a nose ring right before she started going down hill and becoming a different person. What if my wife wanting to get a nose ring means that she will start going down hill and the same thing will happen to me all over again and I'm ignoring all the red flags that I ignored in my last relationship?!?!?!

It sure is a hard thing to deal with man. I had rocd with my ex as well but my main thought has consistently been that I am lying to myself about loving them and the reason I feel so anxious and down so often is because I'm in denial and will feel this way until I admit it to myself and leave them.
