Hi guys I’ve been struggling with my ROCD lately and definitely finding Tik Tok to be very triggering at the moment. If anyone wants to discuss how they’re feeling atm I thought it would be nice for people to have conversations below about where they are at right now- feel free to comment. Sending love 💗
Hi, I’m doing ok. Somewhat recently got back into taking care of my OCD because I’m getting tired of letting it mess me up. I’m really sorry your ROCD is acting up, I bet it’s exhausting. But whatever it’s about, you can face it and move past it!
@Bomalley Yeah sometimes I just go on autopilot and let it ruin me but I need to take control too. Thank you
I'm literally destroying my relationship and I'm genuinely in love but ROCD I believe I may have but have only just learned of this as in the UK and no5 state side so unable to find any ROCD therapists any advice welcome x
@Abzzz I looked this up for another friend in the UK. So actually NOCD does work in the UK. You can contact them if you want. :) I’ll send the link they gave me. You should be able to start treatment https://home.treatmyocd.com/calendar
@Abzzz I would also try Nathan Peterson . He’s awesome. I’ll post one of his relationship videos below. He has lots more as well. https://youtu.be/w4r0kir8COY?si=tzClk-PbJNZawbV8
@Tea and Honey Thanks so much. @ tea and honey x
@Abzzz Did you see the post with the Nathan Peterson link? I accidentally replied to myself instead of to you , lol 😂
@Abzzz I’m the same really struggling with it atm feel numb
I am always partly in survival mode and on the edge of burnout
@Tea and Honey Me too :( I’m exhausted
Thrown away. That's how I feel. 1 marriage, 2 jobs and several friendships...thrown away. 🙁
@Someone99 That’s terrible :( we’re here if you need to talk!
@Anonymous Thanks. Just tough around the holidays. And I have some kind of cold or respiratory thing atm
@Someone99 Yeah there’s something going around at the moment everyone is sick! The holidays were tough for me too a lot of reflecting
I don’t know if I can take it anymore. My last boyfriend had no experience and I still found things to doubt. It’s so much worse with my current boyfriend who has a lot of experience (5 bodies compared to my 1) and has impregnated (pregnancy was terminated) a girl in the past. It makes me feel sick. I really want kids but I don’t know if I can with him. I blame him for that and for all relationships before me like he should’ve waited (I know that is ridiculous). I can’t stop gathering information about the past relationships and experiences too
@jenna.annnn Aw no:( I don’t think there’s anything to worry about here from an outsider looking in- everyone has a past and just because he’s had partners doesn’t mean he’s a bad person, and he has a kid? But did you accept that he had a kid when you started dating? If you did and you still decided to be with him then you need to remember why you accepted it then and not now. It’s probably difficult for him too having a kid with someone else. Here to talk if you need :)
@Anonymous He doesn’t have a child. The pregnancy was terminated. His ex found out she was pregnant while we were together
@jenna.annnn Oh god that’s traumatising if it was while you were together :(
@jenna.annnn I think the fact you found out while you were together would definitely make you feel agitated- as I would too, even if it did happen before you because it would have been recent then so I get that. Have you communicated to him how that made you feel?
@Anonymous Oh absolutely. We have talked about it a lot. She ended up being like a summer fling (that wasn’t their intention) and went back to her home country and found out. I was put in contact with her and supported her through the process and became friends with her which made everything worse. At first she said she didn’t want us to break up but later was upset we were still together
