Struggling
So to start things off I have an issue with comparing myself. I often have the compulsion to go on Pinterest and look up certain female celebrities and compare myself or just sigh and feel bad because I donāt look like them etc. Unfortunately my ocd has attached to it :( Iāve had thoughts like āNo you keep looking for other reasonsā or even āThis means youāre a bad fiancĆ©ā and it makes me freak and spiral, and then my ocd will attack me and make me feel like Iām being disrespectful or unloyal to my relationship. Itās so bothersome, itās like my ocd has attached to these certain female celebrities and itās like my compulsion is like I have this urge to click on the photo and if I donāt I worry about if something will happen etc. Whatās weird is that sometimes when Iām just doom scrolling through some of these celebrities pictures and feeling upset I feel embarrassed because Iām pretty sure Iām embarrassed of the compulsion itself because itās a weird compulsion to have and itās just really bothering me so much. I really hate this and Iāve told my fiancĆ© about it and he always helps me but i dont know how to just sit with this itās too bothersome and feels awful :( has anyone else dealt with this?
