anyone wanna share any things on rocd that they have went through. i’m struggling hard now

mostly thoughts that are negative of my gf. weather it’s physical or not. and just other girls popping into my head and not having control and just feeling very guilty. it’s pretty bad

I’m sorry to hear that too. I have told my partner my ocd is bad lately but I’m trying not to listen because deep down I know I love him, I just wish my brain would turn off the cyclical doubts. I’m hoping like some of my other past ocd things that this too shall pass

Same. I think i have commitment issuses and fear of abandonment. My rocd is screaming inside my head that i have to leave, but i dont want to. Feels like it, but thats just the anxiety talking. What are you struggeling with?

I do too. And my s.o is perfect. But I can’t turn off the thought that something is wrong and we should break up but I know I don’t want to

i went through like phases of it. first i felt like i didn’t love her. then feeling like i had to tell her every single little thing that i did

I don’t want my bf to know. At least with my ocd I just worry that I don’t love my bf. Or ask the what if like what if I don’t actually love him. So my phase now I guess is questioning if I love him but my conscious mind is telling me You can’t ever know if you love someone that’s not a certainty and love isn’t something you feel every second of every day. That’s how ocd sneaks in. It finds areas of life that are uncertain. I just cry and pray this doesn’t ruin my relationship and I get past it

My boyfriend and I recently broke up. I was constantly terrified of him not being the one I love. even though he is beyond amazing I had to force myself to look at other people asking myself, “am I attracted to them more than I am attrcated to my boyfriend?” I led him through a lot. I struggled with the small things setting me off, such as the clothes he was wearing and I was sent into a spiral of anxiety thinking “I cant love him if I have these thoughts,” “why am I sitting in this year long relationship lying to myself and leading my boyfriend on?” And my brain and body respond, “run, emmy.” Its simple that my brain does this to protect me and though its innocent, its far from helpful on both sides of relationship. The most effective thing to do is communicate to your partner when your ocd is being a prick, and maybe ask for a few minutes to think. I failed at this part because my ocd was so strong- almost like peer pressure but internal peer pressure.

I do similar things. We are used to the excitement of the chase. That’s not possible in a stable relationship. Having a stable relationship is a good thing

like i used to be someone who didn’t commit to one person and kinda went through a hoe phase. and i just sit and compare my relationship now to the ones i had before and it’s just mentally taxing

You should next time talk to your SO.
