I know you love your partner, but it's all the OCD doing this to you

@Speckles I am terrified it will win. The urges are insane and I’m crying in bed right now because it breaks my heart to think about 😞

@cam1724 @cam1724 I hate to see your in such pain, but try to remember this will pass. Darn OCD. I hate it!! I've been listening to music. I have a song now its called "I get knocked out but I get up again" chumbawumba I think. It helps... maybe you can find a song?

What kind of compulsions do you have? What triggers your thoughts? Keep putting yourself in situations that trigger you obsessive thoughts and then minimize the compulsions by not ruminating, answering questions etc.

@winterdream I honestly have no idea what my triggers are. They start as soon as I wake up, and all the way until I go to sleep. 😞 my biggest compulsions are ruminating, reassurance seeking, checking feelings, and googling. I haven’t been googling as much, but I’ve been going into forums and comparing and reassurance seeking 😞

@cam1724 I would first limit how much you’re going into forums and reassurance and then work from there. I would also try not to fight the thoughts but let them be in the background while you do your thing. The voice gets quieter eventually :)

@Speckles I’ve had harm and suicidal in the past too, those felt extremely real as well. This one has been the hardest for me though bc it just seems more real and justifiable 😞

@cam1724... it's not real...I know it doesn't feel that way. But it's all fake. I have HOCD

@Speckles I had harm ocd really bad years ago. It was absolutely terrible. Then it went to suicidal. Now it’s all relationship. It makes me sick how our own brains can fight against us so much. I know it’s not real, but it feels so real and I am so terrified it will win

@cam1724 it's not going to win! You aren't going to let it! Remember that...I hate how r brains do this too. It's not fair. You should watch Maria Bamford utube... she's a little crude, but she'll cheer u up!!

Dealing with breakup pls help
Hi - I’ve made a series of posts about my situation over the past few weeks. My bf asked to take a break from our relationship through text the first week of April. We haven’t spoken since. There’s a lot of outward details to this but I’ll try to keep it as simple as possible. My ocd is telling me the worst of the worst. He left me with full uncertainty because he didn’t give me a reason, and his decision felt like it happened overnight and I’m still so confused. He’s never been in a relationship as serious as this before. I’m incredibly hurt and angry, and my emotions get worse on Saturday and Friday nights because that’s when his frat parties happen. I do ERP phrases but my stomach hurts and it’s churning so bad. I deactivated/deleted social media apps for now because it’s too much. I just wish this physical feeling would stop. Does anyone have tips?

Please help
Recently my ocd keeps asking me if I love my boyfriend enough and that if I don’t love him enough I should breakup with him. It’s really bothering me and idk what to do about it. Sitting in the uncertainty is too much and I fear sitting with it too long I’m just gonna crack and give in to a compulsion.
