I also focus on the positive things he says, "he's here for me, he's excited about our anniversary in 2 weeks". Focus on the positive facts. His actions, his words, it helps to reinforce his feelings about me and he's by my side no matter what

You're welcome! Idk if you can reach out to people on here, but between me, you and Shaz, we can become a great support team, since we are working on the same ocd.

I told my husband last week that I knew he was talking to another woman. I even stated I was okay with it, because I'm so lost in my head, that I understood he needed a level headed person to communicate with. After stating those words, it tore me up. So I get up and walk around my block when I see him getting on his phone. Work through my mind that it's an intrusive thought and he's not talking to anyone

Omg no I deal with that too. The whole crying bit. Really all you can do is dig deep not when your in an anxious state and decide if you want to be with him or not. Like it’s super hard but imagine your life with out them...

Cari, no he's not. My brain sees it that way. He's getting worse out on proving it to me, and I see it, to where I realized my ocd is out of control

Same here. It's been wonderful talking with you ladies, we're not in this alone. There are others whom are going through the same thing and I can see this as a great way to start focusing on us. Definitely needed companionship for us! ?

?? definitely! Nothing is impossible for us. Stay strong and fight thru it. Idk if we can share personal information on here but we should definitely make a support chat group or something like that.. just an idea. But yeah i loved talking and opening up to you guy. Thank you for listening and talking. Lots of love. <3

Yeah. Today we had this huge disagreement and I kept on saying break up breakup. And my bf was like calm down, take that anger and sadness out of you, and tell me what you want. And i cried and said this relationship. Then after I'm done crying, my mind goes like dang it! U had ur chance to escape... And suddenly I'll regret that why didn't i just break up... Or everytime i cry, my mind will tell me that I'm just acting to cry!!!!. Oops lol that got off topic but is this normal or rocd related? Because I'm self diagnosed so I don't really know.

Currently I have several different OCD fears that pop up throughout the week depending on the situation. I've noticed a commonality between all of them are the fears relating to memory/false memory. Today is the ROCD struggle I've been dealing with. I know OCD has been trying this on me lately because of how much I love my spouse. They are my absolute best friend and she's my world. I value our marriage and friendship more than anything. OCD has latched onto one specific female coworker. And I don't even know why because even if I were single I wouldn't be into her. Even still, OCD makes me think I've cheated on my wife every time I'm alone with this coworker at work. Always starts as a what if, followed by imagery, followed by feelings that I must've actually done something and can't remember it. Usually fearing I've kissed her. It hurts because I know I'd never do that to my wife and I love her so much...the idea of losing her kills me, especially if it were the result of something I did. Just wanted to vent. Feel free to share your experiences or vents as well

I suffer with a constant worry of what if I’ve cheated. You name it I’ve thought I’ve done it. I’m quite flirty at nature and also insecure. Sometimes hand in hand I don’t think they balance each other out as the constant need for attention to validate myself can backfire. Although I have the best partner ever and she makes me feel nothing less than beautiful I still crave validation from others. That being said someone I used to work with left over half a year ago and when they worked at my current place of work we were very close. Text everyday, phone calls you name it. However looking back I was extra flirty as I wanted him to fancy me. I wanted the power to turn him down to make myself feel better. Awful I know. Now all I can think about is what if I’ve done something. What if I kissed him. What if I’ve slept with him etc. I’ve kept our whole conversations from the minute I got his personal number. I constantly search key words to see if my intrusive thoughts are real. I can except the uncertainty my therapist tells me about as if I have done the worst and cheated I would loose my partner and our 10 year relationship. I love her so much she is my life but I can’t stop thinking what if I’ve cheated. Does anyone else suffer with the same theme? If so how do you cope?
