Is it ROCD or just making excuses for being a bad person?
ROCD
How do you know if its rocd or not? Or if you’re just finding excuses for being a terrible person

ur not a terrible person because you wouldn't feel guilty but to be honest you have to accept the uncertainty behind you being a bad person or having the thoughts that a bad person would have and accept the guilt to reinforce that you are a good person but the thoughts are just a product of your need for everything to be 100% one way or the other. which in reality it will never be that way u'll always have thoughts that contradict what you want to feel but if you accept them as passing thoughts and understand that the majority of your feelings gravitate towards a positive reality then u'll slowly become desensitized to your intrusive thoughts
@Anonymous Thanks for this ❤️. Ive been trying to find someone who has gone through my exact issue to confirm if this is an rocd thought. I feel like crying… i just feel bad. Half of me is trying to justify the thought which is bad… and makes me feel like im looking for excuses and the other half is trying to make sure its rocd related.. i dont wanna reassurance seek… but i dont want to be this bad person hes in a relationship with. I genuinely hate my brain… my ocd has been kicking my ass lately whenever i get in relationships that cause me to have high emotions.. its like my brain doesn’t want me to be happy.
@Anonymous123456789# for me i have rlly intrusive thoughts and crushes and feelings and i wish it were all thoughts in my brain but it feels like theyre interconnected which convinces me its a crush and then i feel guilty and like a horrible person bcs i dont wanna feela ttracted to anyone else and im sure u can imagine the cycle considering u suffer from rocd as well. i dont know if its abt crushes for u or if its abt the compatibility or the fate of ur relationship or intrusive thoughts/icks abt ur partner but either way its all normal and to be honest ur brain wants u to be happy but ur disorder does not. it targets ur biggest fears and reflects them as a reality so until u desensitive urself it will keep perpetuating.
While seeking reassurance usually isn’t helpful as someone who has accepted the disertenty to a certain extent, I have to say just telling myself okay so MAYBE I could be a bad person but clearly I am self aware enough to get better so at the very least there are ways to solve that problem :) either way the result ends with you not being a bad person, just a human
@OCDeeznutzzz This made me wanna cry some more when i read it… i agree with what u said. Its just the confessing that fucks me up… in the chance of that possibility being true
How am I to know whether I have ROCD or if I should leave. I keep having critical and negative thoughts about everything my partner says and does and the way he looks and acts and his personality: literally everything! But I know he’s not the problem, I am, because he’s not toxic or bad. So how do I know if it’s ROCD or if Im trying to force myself to like the wrong person? I’m so lost and confused. He’s such an amazing person and I don’t want to hurt him. I just wish these thoughts would go away and I could see him through rose coloured glasses. But I’m feeling so discouraged and getting tired of trying.
How do I know I definitely have ocd I feel like I’m making it all up and using it as excuse to my boyfriend and that I’m a bad person towards him I don’t want to hurt him I want to share my thoughts with someone :(
I can’t tell if I have ROCD or if he’s the wrong person for me does anyone have any tips on how to know
