Your brain is only feeding you the same thoughts that you fear. If you weren’t afraid, it wouldn’t feed it to you. It is trying to protect you because it believes there is a problem. But as you know there is not a problem. Don’t reason with the thoughts. Ignorance is the only thing you can do. They will go away naturally.
you only feel you do not love your boyfriend because your ocd is telling you that you do not. your ocd does not define you and you are the one who knows if you love him or not. loving someone is complex and there will be barriers that keep you from believing that you love someone or something. if you know you love him, you do. keep telling yourself that your ocd is trying to trick you and is trying to take happiness away from you. sometimes thoughts will just come and we have to find things to distract us like music or going into nature.
I’ve been feeling the exact same lately. I haven’t been saying I love you back to him one minute I love him next im getting these thoughts and getting confused
@ambermayx SAME that’s how I’ve been feeling!
@Spirit130 It’s exhausting to constantly be fighting it like I keep thinking do I need to break up with him Is this the right relationship I just don’t know
