Does anyone else struggle to fully believe it’s OCD? I’ve read everything (blogs/websites/articles), watched the videos etc and everything pin points to this being OCD. (Everything sounds like me- almost textbook) But still my brain says ‘no, it’s not that, you’re just trying to convince yourself it is’ or ‘there’s nothing wrong with you, you’re just done with your relationship’. Suckkksss!

Sounds like typical OCD to me lol

Yep

@koko puff- I know right but still part of my head is saying ‘no it’s not, you’re just trying to convince yourself’. And @ gavsherry- You’ve got this! It’s super hard. I’m feeling so unhappy and my brain is pinpointing my boyfriend/relationship as being the reason for that unhappiness when actually it’s not that at all! OCD distorts everything. But that little part of you that couldn’t leave yesterday is the part you need to listen to!!

Really sucks right? Feels like you’ve got a handle on it because your anxiety has died down but then it just starts something elseeee! So frustrating but it’s great to know I’m not alone xx

Thank you for that!

Really interesting read

Last 3 days my brain is telling me that I don’t want to be with my partner anymore I’m completely numb to her so I tested myself last night “go on then go and finish it “ I couldn’t and really didn’t want to felt fine had a good night sleep woke this morning thinking hang on where’s the anxiety and fuzzy head has it really gone yayyy... wait no it back now ?? .... ocd is like a prime Mike Tyson .. knocks the shit out of u and is really hard to beat but somewhere inside we know it’s ocd and we shall succeed

Right there with you xxxx
