I’m freaking out I had a dream where I cheated on my fiancé with my best friend partner now I just feel so much anxiety like I would never do that . I feel like a horrible person
I have dreams like this as well. Embarrassing, but I will have dreams that I slept with someone from high school that I haven’t thought about in years. That’s why they’re just dreams! They mean absolutely nothing. Try your best to get on with your day and don’t give the anxiety attention.
I went through the same thing a few days ago! I had a dream that I kissed a guy in my school, who I’m not even fond of in general, and it freaked me out. But it is not real, it means nothing! You are not alone
I’m sure you’re feeling really scared and distressed, but remember, you can handle the feeling of fear. You don’t need to feed OCD by seeking reassurance. You’re strong! You can handle it! Maybe, it would help you to take a second and figure out what is at the root of that fear. Is it that you’re a bad person? Then think of a corresponding RPM. Like…maybe you are capable of doing something like that, maybe not….The thought of that is scary and probably makes you feel afraid. You can handle it. Fear is an emotion and emotions pass.
@Anonymous Sorry, I know that’s not very reassuring, but it says that you’re an OCD conqueror, so I hope you’ll understand. Wishing you the best!
hey, i totally get how disturbing and real those dreams can feel, especially when they're about doing something that goes against your values. it's rough, but remember, dreams aren't reflections of our desires or intentions. they're just dreams. 💭 since i'm dealing with a different ocd theme, i might not have the exact answers, but i've found some tools that could be helpful. the "unstuck ocd therapy tools" app has been a game-changer for me - it offers ai-personalized guidance and exercises right when you need them. my local ocd support group recommended it, and it's been super useful. also, you might find the ocd reddit helpful for connecting with others who get what you're going through. hang in there. 🌟
Rocd! Anyone else ever have a worry that they’d rather be with their ex? I don’t actually think it, but I worry that I would want that, and then I feel guilty, like my minds already made up. It gets me super anxious and upset. Makes me feel as if I’ve betrayed the girl I just married, and that my life is ruined. Now. I would never leave her, I don’t want to leave her, I don’t want to lose her, and I certainly don’t want to go back to my ex. But my mental obsessing over that scenario is driving me crazy, and causing me to doubt myself.
Hello guys quick question, I’ve been in a relationship with my girlfriend now for 8 months coming up to 9. Last night and nights before I had dreams with like girls who aren’t her is that bad and does that mean anything I feel like if I didn’t have ocd I wouldn’t think twice about it. Like am i unfaithful and I can’t tell her and I just feel guilty.
I can’t stop thinking about a time the thoight of cheating crossed my mind at a party and I was like “no it’s against my morals” and then started ruminating about it for hours thinking that maybe I should break up with my partner if I’m attracted to someone else I was cold and didn’t talk to the person the whole time ofc (I don’t really know them I just saw them that one time and they were hitting on me - which I rudely rejected and said I had a bf) I feel terrible. I feel like a cheater. I’ve been told I’m not but why do I still feel like I am? I feel like I betrayed my partner and I feel terrible and disgusting to the point I’ve been cutting myself.
