I'll say this again....do NOT give in to OCD. If u end your relationship it will find something else to latch onto and torture you with. And you will have ended your relationship for...what? I kno that it may "feel" right and you think you will be free of whatever mindless chatter OCD is coming at you with, but trust me, it will not end. Itll just move on to something else and once again, here we go. If you let it, OCD will ruin your life but we must NOT allow that. I know the anxiety sucks, believe me I been there. But do not listen to what it says. It is a BS talker and that's the only way you must regard the threats it faces you with.

Before you make any quick decisions: you need to think about the actual relationship instead of just the ocd. Does he love you? Do you love him? Think about the good times with him. Think about the not so good times with him. Do you communicate in a healthy way? OCD can find awful ways to try to ruin your life. Once one part is ruined, it loves to the next. I’m not trying to sway you to not break up with him because I don’t know you all or the whole story, but I just want to make sure that whatever you decide is your own decision and not one that ocd makes. Communication with your boyfriend about your ocd is so important. I’m in a relationship currently as well and my girlfriend is very supportive. Through healthy communication we learned about each other. She struggles with anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder. It can be hard sometimes because we could be having a fun little day and then she bumps her head on something and she completely shuts down and thinks that someone is hurting her. It can be very challenging sometimes but I’ve learned what to do when things like that happen to her and she knows what to do if I have an ocd episode. She’s very caring and we couldn’t be happier. I don’t want you to miss out on a loving relationship. When it comes down to it, it’s your decision but like I said, make sure it’s your decision and not one made because of ocd! Much love

Rocd -feeling like relief would be to breakup
So me and my boyfriend have been dating for a few months but seriously talking for around 8. I have never met anyone so perfect and amazing. I love him so much. Into our talking stage i kissed my ex situation-ship and ever since have been dealing with the consequences. He forgave me and gave me another chance and i have shown him how much i care every day since. He is over it now since it was only in our talking stage. I have had thoughts with my ex name, thoughts i hate my boyfriend, always constantly thinking if im bored, if i love him. It switches day by day and impacts my life constantly. I don’t feel like myself at all. Some days i can’t do it. I just want to be happy and secure with him. my thought from the past few days is that i want to be single and hook up with other people. I don’t actually want to hook up with others but i feel so terrible and guilty. Does anyone else deal with this? Sometimes i can’t tell the difference between my real thoughts and the fake ones. I have been debating breaking up with my boyfriend because i feel like it’s best but i would be so sad. He is perfect and i see myself marrying him.

Idek what to do with myself and I’m terrified I’m going to relapse because of all the added stress. I think us breaking up was the right decision but it hurts so fucking bad idek what i should do anymore. I’m not normally the emotional type when it comes to situations like this either. Any advice?
