Am I just a pity friend, or is it my OCD making me doubt their feelings?

Acknowledge you can’t know everything that goes through other’s heads. BUT, they ARE your friends, and CHOOSE to hang out with you. Maybe some days, they aren’t as excited to hang out. Happens to all of us. But yet they’ve CHOSEN to be with you. They didn’t have to do that, but they do

I remind myself I have OCD.

I've had this before. I just kinda was like "yeah.... Okay" and it went away. Wish I could still do that. I'd like to confirm your diagnosis, but sometimes the answer to "is this OCD" is "maybe, maybe not". Do you get where I'm going with this? Anyway, for this theme, you should hang around your friends, let the thoughts come, and absolutely ridicule OCD's thoughts as they come in, like "oh yeah, they really hate me enough to hang around me, shut up OCD you're wasting my time". And don't be afraid to get angry at OCD.

Hi there I’ve had something similar. The way I’ve learnt to cope with it is let the thoughts and questions in, as much as it would terrify me let the thoughts be there, not question them and try and figure them out but let them be there and carry on. It took time for me however now when the thoughts and questioning appear, because I’m letting them be there and not going over them I’m not reacting the same way I used to. And once what was a consumable terrifying fear is now barely bothering me at all. I know how difficult this obsession can be but you can get to the other side of it. Please keep going I really hope this helped in some way and you feel better.

I’ve learnt to think like an old wise person when this pops up in my mind. I’ll say statements like “friends come and go”, “true friends will always stick around and those that don’t aren’t” “You have your whole life to make friends and many opportunities to if you just try and search for them” “You believe this because they aren’t talking but conversations are two sided” Etc.
