I’m in this stage too. It’s really hard during this stage but I’ve learned this is really the ocd talking. It’s a doubting disorder that eventually will make you doubt you even have ocd. What’s helped me is responding to the thoughts saying “maybe i love him maybe I don’t” I don’t need to accept the thought but I just recognize it’s there and try to let it fly by. (It takes a lot of effort tho) if that’s too triggering right now then just try to label every doubting thought about your relationship or if you even have ocd as “ocd thinking.” That helps, for me at least, put things in perspective and get a sense of reality

Thank you both for the post and response. It’s soothing to know that I am not the only one and that the thoughts can change. I’m wondering how long these intrusive thoughts can last ?

I make lists of good qualities- sometimes going back to the good qualities I appreciate about my person help. Also, I don’t always have to be IN LOVE with him to be choosing the relationship. My kids make me crazy a lot and I don’t feel overwhelming love for them everyday but I choose them everyday. I think maybe love could be consistently choosing even when someone is less than loveable. I think I would feel more loved if someone liked me even on my worst days - maybe my partner feels the same?

Sometimes I think I truly think negative thoughts about my bf but I feel it could be because of how obsessive I am over the thought. Does that make any sense ??? Like I genuinely think it often but only because of how obsessed I am over it

Sexual ocd
Hey guys so I have been suffering with sexual ocd due to the fact that I don’t feel that romantic spark with him anymore, I love him and I know I do but I get to much in my thoughts thinking about why can’t I feel that anymore what has changed what if I don’t wanna be with anymore I’ve been with him for 4 years and at first I think it was ROCD but now I started thinking what if I’m into girls now I’ve always been the type to say oh a girl is so pretty or I like this about her but now I feel like every time I see a girl I’m like do I see myself in a relationship with her oh she’s pretty oh I like her voice do I find it attractive and sometimes I do !!! Which is killing me I feel disgust thinking about because what if I secretly am no shame to people who are my sister herself is but I just feel wierd because I wanna be with my husband and feel happy there not with a girl and feel like a man because I see myself in the mirrior and I’m like do I myself being a man do I look lesbian? Do I act lesbian or bi? What if secretly I wanna be a man or I imagine myself being a man in a relationship with a pretty girl and idk what to think

Is it normal to analyze every thought & feeling you have? For example. If I had a feeling like I wanted to flirt or if I felt like I wasn’t sad when my partner left for the night ETC. I over analyze these and they lead me to thinking I’m a bad partner or it’s not the right relationship. This scares me so bad Is this basically ROCD in a nutshell? It feels so overwhelming when thinking about all the different feelings and thoughts I’ve had over time
