Guys, i have been really doing amazing for a few weeks then all of a sudden, i get the thought in my head that this is all a lie and i need to leave my wife. I know not to play the "what if" game but what if this is true? i need help to try and get over this hump and back to living.
Please fight the urge ! You know it’s OCD creeping on you again I know it feels like dying , but please be strong
accept the uncertainty. maybe it is a lie. oh well. then go back to enjoying your life with your wife. try to be as present in the moments even when being around her can cause intense anxiety. focus on the words in your conversations, focus on the tv you are watching together. accept your thoughts for what they are, thoughts. thoughts do not have meaning until we give them meaning. you can do this. resist your physical compulsions. for my rocd i just say “i dont need to figure this out right now” or “ill think about how i feel about them at (random time) and return my focus to something else. more than not the time i set for myself passes and its been hours since ive had the original thought, sometimes only minutes. and then i just do it again
