I'm so sorry to hear you are going through that. You are definitely not alone. OCD can feel isolating, especially when others don't understand what we are going through. This article might be helpful because it gives some simple ways partners can help and be supportive: https://www.treatmyocd.com/blog/how-can-i-help-my-partner-with-their-ocd. Sending strength!

Feeling alone with OCD
Sometimes I feel like nobody really gets me. Nobody knows what’s going on in my head. I try to explain in vivid detail, but my ocd immediately reads the other persons face and registers that they don’t get it. It’s a very isolating experience. Anyone else have something like this?

Tired
Anyone else wish that people understood what OCD does to us and why its so hard for us to breathe or act or think like them? Its rough.

This OCD makes me feel crazy and like no one has had thoughts like these before
I can't explain my obsession to anyone without it sounding crazy and no one understands the obsession, so I won't try to here. But has that happened to anyone? An obsession that you can't put into words and no one understands? I was making a tiny bit of progress with my NOCD therapist, but I couldn't afford it anymore. So I'm just feeling alone, scared, and crazy. Just wanted to reach out here. Thank you
