ROCD - breaking up
Has anyones ROCD been so bad that they broke up with their partner? Or they didn’t realize they had ROCD and broke up with their partner? I did and I feel alone in this aspect.

Because it was 5 months before I realized. I finally did and now we are working on figuring things out but with the time we were apart, it’s hard. Plus he still blames me for leaving for choosing flight over fight after 8 years. Which is scary and unhealthy and makes me question if we should get back together, but also he has years of issue with people abandoning him and has accountability issues from his father so I understand where his mind is coming from and these are things I want to work on him with in therwpy

Don’t worry . This is exactly me right now. It’s been over a week. I did get upset over differences because we just moved in together. There are things that affected how I felt as a person but not OCD but it was a compulsive thing to do. Plus my religious OCD makes me feel like he’s not the one and God has someone else for me but I’m not sure. He told me the same thing how I can just get up and dip so quickly. Right now we are unsure if what to do and if we’re planning on getting together or not but I just pray about it. I know how you feel trust me . And there’s so much overthinking that happens in the proceeds of not having the person physically with you

It’s so much easier when they’re not far away. Plus he’s been on a vacation with his friends that no longer like me after I broke up so he’s not talking to me a lot either which makes it harder

@gracek2218 Is this the first time you broke up with him? Does he even know you have OCD because that can maybe be a reason. I feel like you guys should talk about it

My partner and I are currently broken up/taking a break. Has anyone with ROCD dealt with this? How did it work out? I’m scared and relieved but I know I love them.

rocd and break ups
i have rocd and am in a long term relationship. i have a hard time differentiating between obsessive/intrusive thoughts about my relationship comingfrom OCD and actual gut feelings. for 2 years I’ve thought that i need to break up with my partner but i usually dismiss it because i think its rocd. now im worried that it actually means i should break up but i know that after i do i’ll be obsessing whether it was the right decision … does that make sense? don’t know how to separate rocd from “real” feelings
