Same. I like to think it’s the depression just making me feel nothing. But it makes me think it’s the hocd and me thinking I’m wanting to be with a girl. I hate it. I know I love him. I am still so attracted to him. Everything sucks
Jup, ocd making us doubt everything. Im not gonna give up and let ocd win. We can do this, but sometimes ocd takes over.
What you thinking about?
ocd makes me question everything about my relationship. Makes me feel numb and makes me believe i dont love him anymore.
Start a blog on your phone notes. Write what and how your feeling each day good and bad. Use ocd sleep hypnosis sessions on YouTube and do mindfulness. I am the exact same and no how hard it is and only recently managed to snap out of continuous worrying that I don’t love my partner and any scenarios I imagine in my head would add to the worry as because I felt anxious I think it’s true. But it’s not true the fact you get so distressed and feel so bad proves that. If you didn’t want them you wouldn’t be worried.
It’s a thought/worry caused by my ocd. It picks things I care about the most and I start to worry and try prove that it’s not true which just feeds the anxiety and makes me think the thought is true no matter what I think. I no that the worry is there and I don’t have to push it away or take it on because I no it’s a product of my obsessive thought disorder. I no it’s there but I no why it’s there so I don’t have to take the thought on I just let it come and let it go it’s not a true reflection on how I feel. I don’t have to imagine. Try this might help.
Does ROCD every start to make you feel and perceive life, or your spouse and the things important to you through this really wierd, unsettling kind of filter or perception? And you just feel resistant, distracted, repulsed and almost like you don’t care but also do. It’s hard. I feel very unfamiliar. It’s like you just don’t want to try when you think I about making action, but you also want to. Ugh. What do you do? Has things changed for you? I wish I could describe this better but I can’t.
Discovering and struggling with my ROCD during my engagement has been the worst time of my life. Worrying incessantly about my fiancé and our future has made me miserable and I’ve become quite hopeless. I also feel so much pressure for everything to be perfect and to make the absolute most of my wedding/honeymoon/etc whatever it is that it’s debilitating. It has been causing a lot of passive suicidal thoughts not wanting to suffer this anymore.
I'm just so tired of feeling sick to my stomach and having a lack of appetite. My ROCD is just ridiculous. It is partner focused ROCD and I find it to be stupid because no one is perfect and everyone has flaws. I know I have flaws and yet I'm obsessing over my bfs. I'm just tired!!!
