Your husband sounds like a douche ngl. Try to reason with him and if he refuses to help you and just wants to beat a person down who is already down then how much does he truly care? I have family who has a bunch of issues and not once do i blame them for their illnesses. To me he sounds like a narcissist.

I’m so sorry to hear that. How much does he know about OCD?

He knows about OCD. I've explained it to him and he seems to understand. But whenever we have a misunderstanding, he always brings up how worthless I am and blames it on my OCD. I know he's tired and frustrated, so am I. I feel like he still can't accept the fact that I have this disorder.. sometimes he wish I was different.

That's why I hate myself for having OCD. I can't be the kind of wife that he always wanted.

Please don’t hate yourself for having this. You are not your OCD and it has no bearing on who you are as a person. None of it is your fault❤️ It’s been very difficult for me to accept and live with this every day. In times past it has debilitated me so much that I could hardly get off my couch and to everyday tasks. I understand how it feels❤️

Dahlia again you should be a therapist. Stardust I’m going through the same stuff with my wife, but I can’t blame this ocd on nobody and all I can have is compassion for myself and the people that are affected by it. With this I’m not saying that he should treat like trash, but to have compassion for all the negativity that comes ocd experiences.

Any advice?
I feel completely unlovable. I have a difficult time getting close to people because of my OCD and I have to force myself to not compulsively seek reassurance. I feel like I’ll never find my person. I’m worried I’ll be an awful wife because of my inability to do anything. I want to show up for my partner, but I feel stuck because of my OCD. I think it’s safer to just be alone.

How to react to family who does not understand OCD
I am married and neither,my husband or children understand what it feels like to have OCD. I have had it for some time now. Sometimes ig gets better while other times it acts up and feels just awful!! During these especially awful times I worry more, voice what I am worried about, and just feels depressed. I got even more depressed whwn my family members insult me because of my ocd. I know I should not voice my worries etc ask I am thinking that is a,compulsion but sometimes I do. I regret it afterward,cuz nothing food really happens as a result. More often I am judged, called names and then I really get depressed!!!! It sometimes tanes me days to feel better acter one of those wpisodes! I guess besides not viucing my worries what can I do in a family that does so ma y things that upset me....and it would wvwn if I did nit have ocd!!! I meant WE all have to live together and trust me....there are things they so that for sure woyld have bothered me way before I had o d! ,They would bother the father and son on the TV show Sanford and Son!!! How so I just,live in same house,all the,whike pretending those things,don't bother me? I meant I am the mom. Don't I get some say so without being called names etc?
