ROCD
Anyone else go through this thing, where the thoughts about your partner no longer bother you, but the feeling it came with is still there??

That me right now. Like i feel sick to the stomach but the thoughts aren’t coming as repetitive and they don’t scare me as mich
I just wanna feel attracted to my partner again. Like I know I am. There’s just the anxiety and the other things still there. I feel like I’m just trying my best to hold it all back
@NoRocd1991 i want too but i got hocd too thats problem
@NoRocd1991 I’m in long distance, and I’ve gotten over the me actually wanting to break up fear ocd thoughts i was having. Now it’s like severe anxiety that what if next time I’m with him it doesn’t feel right.
@kirby7980 Keep in mind that you’re not always gonna have butterflies. Feelings come and go, ebb and flow. Do what you wanna do with your partner, despite your thoughts and how they make you feel. Don’t let OCD win
yes. i still feel the intense physical sensations of anxiety like racing heart and i get very hot but thoughts do not accompany them. i try to acknowledge them as physical sensations that will pass and i do my best to not make any connections or assumptions about why its there
I need some opinions. I have had ROCD (I think) for about 1.5 years now and I have had crazy thoughts since then. Tonight I feel as if, if we were to break up I wld be happy and not care at all anymore
I just got out of a 4 year relationship that ended around the beginning of February. In the beginning of the 4 year relationship I had intrusive thoughts about the way I was behaving around my partner, this went on for a few months not knowing what it was or that it was ROCD. I remember it was bad and did not want to deal with what I was feeling. I defeated it and was ok for the first 3 years after that. But it just made me feel like I wasn’t being my true, authentic , funny self I wanted to be for my partner. It was horrible. Now I’m in a new relationship that has been awesome as far as the beginning goes but now I’m back to that intrusive thought and ROCD. Irs to the point where I feel like I can’t be myself and I’m not happy or excited about anything anymore I’m constantly stressed out thinking about it.
Even if I think I truly like someone else and think something negative about my partner & have found all the evidence I’m going to sit in the discomfort. Has anyone else had to do this in a similar situation? I love my partner to death. So hard.
