Yeah cause it’s more so cause you’re like ocd is making you wonder how much you love him if at all.. ya know

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.

And it's like only me who wants their bf to cheat lol. I've never seen anyone suffering rocd think this way.. i absolutely hate this... Then I'll think things like oh i hope he gets other girls attention.. which disturbs me....

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.

im having a unusually hard flare up for two months. ive never had it this bad before (ive had this on and off for many years - thank god not constantly.) lately, i keep having these images in my head and scenarios in my head of me "coming out" in the future and ending my relationship with my amazing fiance who i love dearly. he knows everything but i still feel like i am constantly lying to him, my family, and friends. i need to know that this is something the SO-OCD can do to you? the weird thing is, is that i have never been attracted to woman. i do admire their beauty and wish to LOOK like them or have a specific feature they have, but i dont have any urges to like be with them yet i am dealing with this really bad flare up. My brain keeps telling me that since i have never tried it, i would never know, and i am just getting really distressed from it. i just want to be happy again and it seems impossible. I am convinced i am only person that is using SO-OCD as an excuse. Any guidance or advice, or anything really, will help. i just feel alone and scared and sad all the time.

Im a 21 year old female in a straight relationship with the best guy a girl could ever ask for. About 2 months ago, I went to get coffee with a friend and as I dropped her off, I got a “weird” vibe from her and the look she gave me which lead to the thought of “should I kiss her”….Ive never had a thought like that before and I never have ever wanted to kiss another girl. I have also never had a desire to be with another girl (sexually or romantically). Now though, I have had one other experience of being with a different friend going to get lunch and it felt weird. Ever since then I have been on google non stop with hundreds of different searches, questioning if im lying to myself of my boyfriend, wondering about my past relationships even though Ive only dated boys, been attracted to boys, crushed on boys, etc… boy crazy! Reading on other forums has been a big thing too or doing quizzes. I believe its SO-OCD but im so scared that what if its not. I am in therapy and actually had two weeks of not even thinking about it or googling it until yesterday. I dont know what to do.

I’m 25 and never ever thought this before my soocd relapse. I have a bf of 5 years. Never been a high libido kinda girl. Don’t get me wrong I do get turned on by my bf but not like every day you know? - That had always been in the back of my head, is this normal and ok? But my ocd has latched onto the most scariest what if EVER. My brain is now saying How do you know you won’t prefer to sleep and kiss girls if you haven’t tried it: and it’s that unknown that is scaring the shit out of me. I DONT AND NEVER HAVE wanted to sleep / kiss a girl. But now my intrusive thoughts is all I think about!!! I don’t want I don’t want I don’t want??? So why does my brain think BUT WHAT IF??? I know ocd thrives off uncertainty which is why I think this is happening? But I don’t wanna find out or work it out because all I want is to be with my bf and marry him!! Is this just the epitome of OCD?
