I can’t seem to understand you, I’m sorry. ? can you come back in 10 minutes so you can explain the situation in a calmer state? This is what I so far know: Your girlfriend told you something It is 100% true. your parents thinks it’s a lie (I don’t know where the “I don’t like being played” comes from but I will assume it’s from your parents) You don’t want to say something (idk what) Your girlfriend is mad for telling them the thing that wasn’t true (idk what the thing that isn’t true is) And your parents are mad. I’m so sorry about your best friend. How does that make you feel? If you want to talk about it, we can! I’ll be here

She was having bad anxiety and she needed me there but but then told my parents that she was okay when I knew she wasn’t and she knew she wasn’t so my parents think I was just telling them that she needed me there as an excuse to go over past my curfew but I don’t want to tell my parents what she said to me because I respect her privacy so they think I’m “playing them” and lying to them when I’m not. I hope that makes more sense:(

Would it be possible to have your girlfriend come over to your house when your parents are home so she can explain what's troubling been troubling her. Maybe your parents can help her.

@Secret I understand way better. Thank you. I agree with JCM. You can have her write a letter or come in person. It’s just a simple misunderstanding!!! Can you ask her if she’s fine with you telling your parents the reason why you came over? I don’t think it will hurt to try. Update us soon! Over all, if you can’t explain, apologize to your girlfriend if her feelings were hurt by the situation. Not for your actions but because of your parents response. You are doing a good job respecting her privacy. You sound like you care a lot about her.

I love her so much, we talked about it and stuff but the same thing is kinda happening again but idrk I’m just really feeling bad tonight and my ocd isn’t helping and I don’t think vaping is a good coping method but I don’t know. Like I’m so sad sitting on my couch after work listening to sad music and I’m just feeling so overwhelmed with my ocd and just feeling like shit. I’m thinking taking a nice hot shower and playing some of the video games that I love to take my mind off of things but I don’t know anymore...

Take that hot shower and give yourself time to play games and relax. I understand those days, when sometimes things happen all over again. And the anxiety comes back and you’re choking on thoughts. I remember thinking “god please not again. Don’t ruin this for me.” At one point. Take some time off of it. Come back when you’re ready to handle things clearly. If you’d like, you can explain what’s happening again. But be strong. Take it one day at a time. One day.

This isn't OCD related at all, not even a little, and I'm really sorry, but I feel so panicked and overwhelmed right now and I need an outlet. So basically, I have this friend and we met online shortly after Christmas, not irl. We got on really well. I felt like I could tell them anything. Whenever I felt sad (which was quite often) they would help so much by just being there for me. Sending cute and reassuring tiktoks to me. I felt like they were the nicest ever. I told them stuff other people might judge me for. They never judged me and they never seemed judgemental. I started noticing some things, like their reposts on Tiktok. I noticed years ago they reposted something very anti LGBTQ+. It hurt, I couldn't understand it. I asked them about it, and they didn't exactly seem like they did hate LGBTQ+ people. I moved on, still unsure. I found recently they reposted something else. I wasn't sure whether this was super offensive, but the tone of the original post FELT offensive. I have a strong moral compass, and these things got to me so much because I'm attached to this person. And then today, I find another thing they reposted, this time about immigration. It had a strong racist tone. I know now that I need to cut them off. I don't want people like that in my life. It's one thing having different views, but I firmly stand by the idea that you should agree with those around you about things like this. But I'm so distressed. I feel so attached to them. None of this seems like them at all. They seem like such a kind, non judgemental person. I would sit waiting for their text. I would feel so happy to hear from them. We text non stop. We have loads in common. They never judged me. I thought I finally found someone who actually wanted to be my friend, who actually liked me. I'm going to feel empty and numb, and I'm trying not to cry while writing this. Who will I have? Nobody to expect a text from. Nobody to ask about my day. Nobody to send me cute pictures to cheer me up. I actually feel like I'll never get past this. I feel so lonely all the time and they were there for me when no one else was. I feel so numb and I'm terrified. Sorry again that this isn't OCD related. I just didn't know what to do.

I came across a video that was talking about a theory and it was something me and my friend were talking about 2 years ago and were tweaking about and i was explaining it to my girlfriend just now and them i started to get anxiety about stuff not being real and my world isn’t what it seems to be and that there stuff out there and then i started to have religious OCD and then it went to how Im scared of the world being fake or suffering from a mental illness like schizophrenia or something and stuff and I’ve been having OCD about my girlfriend being a government agent or that government agents are watching me cause I’m scared of schizophrenia and thinking like them i don’t think i actually think it i kinda just go to my girlfriend isn’t a government agent which scares me into thinking i was thinking she was or gonna think she is or idk if i just saying that to bot seem insane or something but like idk if i truly believe that i doubt it i don’t believe it any other time and then i started getting stress i might hurt or maybe kill her and it scares me cause shes my everything and I’m scared of losing her idk guys I’m getting stressed hella and I’m scared of myself and my OCD I’m genuinely tired of it like anyone can ask my girlfriend and she’ll say i cant go 5 mins without ticcing (from ocd) or asking for reassurance like that life is real and thats shes real and I’m real and nothings wrongs and stuff, i probably sounds crazy lmaoo maybe and the sucky thing is i don’t have a therapist or a thingy going on for me cause i don’t have a job and or insurance let alone.

I had like a really bad argument with my mom basically about her complaining about my “attitude” and “constant arrogance” like okay firstly 😭 yes i do have an attitude and am irritable but im not THAT bad 😭🙏 she was saying that im a “pest” and that “its not enjoyable to live with someone who makes other people miserable” like 😅🧍♀️ oh ☺️ and then i tell her that i know im struggling and that im going to therapy to try to get better and trying to possibly get a diagnosis and she says “your generation just wants something to deal with. You want something to be wrong with you. ‘Trying to get better’ isn’t good enough… would you be able to stand someone like yourself? You’re just choosing this antisocial, narcissistic behaviour and harass everyone… You need to pull yourself together. No matter how much effort we put into you, you will never be happy. You want some medicine? Some diagnosis? Because that will solve everything?” 😭😭😭 and the way she said “some medication”- she sounded so disgusted and appalled and now i feel ashamed… i mean im not officially diagnosed with ocd and it is never my intention to self diagnose- but im sorry its VERY obvious when you have ocd and know of ocd- its so distinct. Everything- the compulsions, reassurance, intrusive thoughts, themes, patterns, perfectionism- but she has me overthinking- what if i dont have ocd 😭 and ive just been lying to myself and everyone maybe its not ocd and im just sick in the head or trying to self sabotage- and especially when my supposed ocd is calm or not as loud i get so anxious “what if i dont have ocd…”
