Can anyone relate?
How is that I was so worried about my boyfriend wanting to break up with me and no I’m so worried that it’s actually me that wants to break up? I want to cry

I've experienced things pretty similar and actually experiencing something similar right now. Ocd is the doubting disorder and with the doubts it can trick are mind and make all the worries and thoughts seem true but you have to find the right coping strategies for you and understand what none ocd you would want 🩷🩷 Think about things logically, I know that's hard with ocd but it can really help - think are there any reasons to break up with him? Would I think this before my ocd? You've got this, im proud of you for even making this posy I know how hard it is 🩷
@EllieDuffy21 Thank you ❤️
hey, i totally get how confusing and upsetting those thoughts can be, especially when they flip like that 😔 it's really tough dealing with those kinds of uncertainties. have you heard about "unstuck"? it's an ai-powered therapy tool specifically for ocd (unstuckmyocd.com). it's been a game changer for me this past month and might offer you some relief too. another member here recommended it, and i just wish i'd known about it sooner!
@TanyaShelby22 I will try it out! Thank you ❤️
@Whyyocd - you're welcome!!
maybe i dont want to accept the factvthat i lost feelings, maybe i never actually loved my boyfriend and i hust wanted a relationship , i dont want reasurance, but in very scared i dont love him, because it feels real. im scared
I don't know. I just fucking went down a huge rabbit hole of this lady on ROCD Reddit who described something very similar to how I feel about my boyfriend. She was so scared to break up but wanted to anyway bc she wanted to explore and stuff. A lot of the stuff she wrote was things I swear I could have written myself. And I feel so anxious and sick bc she ended up leaving her boyfriend. She's not happy now but feels it's the right choice. I'm so fucking scared - bc I feel like I need to do it now. I feel in ways no ROCD sufferer has felt and I swear this is true. What the fuck??
I feel like my Rocd has become more sophisticated. It’s made me feel as if my healthy loving boyfriend is this terrible person. Or I’ll be thinking to myself like “I love him”, and in middle thought I get “no you don’t”. It’s convinced me that our values and beliefs are just TOO different (we’ve only disagreed on one thing in our relationship, but we talk it out). It’s like my ocd is clinging on to every reason why I should break up, like I don’t want this anymore, even tho I do! It’s frustrating. And the idea of doing erp terrifies me. Because I’m afraid if I do erp statements, that I’ll agree with them. Can someone give insight
