I told my boyfriend about some of my intrusive toughts and my ocd and other stuff that I don't know if they are real or not or if i'm thinking straight or if it's my ocd.. He doesn't know if he wants to break up or not and I never felt broken like this ever before. I don't know if i am a bad person or if it is my ocd. All i know is that i feel like shattered glass. I'm surrounded by people yet i feel so alone and empty

Hey there. I shared my ocd, my sintomis and my intrusive thoughts With two boyfriends: the first one who actually took it really bad and the one i have now, who si really understanding and supportive. Im not telling you this to make you feel Jelous or anything, just to let you know that unfrotunately a lot of People dont know how to understand this problem since theyre not experiencing it. I try not to blame them cause in a way i can see where theycome from and some of the intrusive thoughts are really hard to understand, since they're so Extreme. If hes suitable for you in this Moment of your life where you had to work really hard on yourself and your ocd, he'll stay, if he'll break up With you you will suffer, of course, but in a while you'll understand that he was not the right person in the right time. Give him some time or ask him if he needs some 'help', to ask you his questions if he needs to understand, but dont let him stop you from getting better If he doesnt want to understand you :) we are here re for you

Unfortunately ocd just isn't understood by the masses. Especially the pure O side of the spectrum that includes ruminating and intrusive thoughts. Like the person above I've told bfs in the past about it, and there was definitely a point where my ex couldn't understand and basically went around telling people behind my back ??‍♀️ But anyway, I currently have a bf and I've told him some pretty fucked up shit related to confessing and intrusive thoughts, and I get more support from him than anyone. I've been better since I've been on fluvoxamine though. But really, it just depends on the person. Some people literally can't handle a partner with mental illness. Especially one they don't understand. I'm sorry you're going through this additional pain in conjunction with your OCD. I wish you peace and happiness.

Every person deserves someone who supports you . If he doesn't understand it's his problem not yours. U dont have influence on what he thinks about u and intrusive thoughts

Thank you for your comments.. Really appreciate it

Thanks for all you comments.. Your all giving be a bit of hope. Hope everyone here gets all the happiness they deserve.

Green Jay. Yes nobody understands OCD only open minded people .. I asked one guy who told me he has intrusive thoughts if he has an OCD . He was like : nah I'm not disciplined. Lol like being disciplined is OCD haha
