I’m having a rough time as well my friend. I’m so deep in my theme. I can barely go on social media because of all the awful things happening and then I get triggered. I don’t have much advice, but I want you to know you are not alone. And the more you try to combat the thoughts, the stronger and more real they will seem. Best thing to do is to just let them be and do not even analyze them or give them the time of day.

I think we have to figure out a way to live with our thoughts. The worst we do is dreaming of being relieved of something that's always been a part of our life. And that doesn't mean we are mean. It is just we feel things harsher than others. Most of the time, what you feel doesn't come from inside of yourself but outside, from life itself. You have got traumatized by violence and sadness happening throughout the world and have been interiorizing those things since then. Learn to trust YOURSELF, what you feel doesn't mean you are mean or evil, otherwise you wouldn't be here writing in an OCD website to get some help.

I have ROCD and it’s not even intrusive thoughts at this point. It’s actual feelings that I wanna dump my boyfriend but I felt fine and in love before

I made some research after you talking to me about this. I didn't know this obssession. I think It works the same as for "normal" OCD. The more you fix yourself on your OCD, the more it's getting worse. But it is difficult not to care about it we feel constantly responsible for our thoughts so that most of the time it come from harsh things we've been through into our lives. Courage ! ?❤️

Getting worse again
Ive relapsed pretty hard with my anxiety and depression, and ocd thoughts. I was doing so well for months and just suddenly everything feels so hard again. This week has been extra hard, I haven't had much energy do to much at all. It's like I've forgotten all the ways to handle my thoughts. I don't think I'm looking for tips or anything I just want to write this and maybe talk to someone here. Anyone here who's in a similar situation?

Increase in Intrusive Thoughts
I have had a huge increase in Intrusive Thoughts this week. It’s making things super difficult for me, I am on my period but I also think I’m having more intrusive thoughts recently because things are going well for me right now. I just keep waiting for everything to fall apart because my mind makes me believe that I don’t deserve more than one good thing at a time. My mind is in constant fight or flight mode. I cannot stop thinking about every past mistake or how someone may have thought I had bad or malicious intentions when I didn’t. I keep thinking I’m going to get in trouble for something and go to jail, I’m especially scared about work and messing up someone’s check out and getting fired or arrested. I hate feeling this way, there is just so much going on in my head and I’m terrified and stressed all the time.

Feeling lost
I’m not 100% sure that I have OCD, but I do have PTSD and some new intrusive thoughts were triggered a couple weeks ago. It feels like they have changed my whole perception of my life since then. Every experience that should be fun or relaxing is tainted with the horrible dread I feel when these thoughts creep in. I was really enjoying my life for a while before these new thoughts started and it feels like I have lost contact with that version of myself and my life. I’m afraid of these thoughts tainting things that I want to stay good and pure. I’m just feeling really lost about how to soothe myself and dig out of this
