I deal with the same thing. I constantly question if I love the person I’m with or if there is someone better. I realized it’s quite a normal thing but ocd takes it to a new level. I found instead of worrying about if I love the person or not just accept the uncertainty that it’s possible I don’t love this person. As time goes on you realize it is just ocd tricking you and you’ll truly realize how special the person is standing in front of you.

It’s scary though... I know i need to beat this but I’m scared I really don’t love my partner anymore....I still cry about it so I feel it has to be ocd still...I feel like I lie to everyone.... 😞 I feel like I am in denial. He’s a fantastic boyfriend. He cooks cleans helps buy food has been patient with me... why do I have to feel this way I have someone who truly loves me and I feel like this.... 😞😞 I know I need to think differently but I feel like if I do I am gonna find out it’s me....

For a long time I felt really bad and denial. I’m still in a bad place with ocd but I’m working on it. I think the key in determining if it’s ocd or not is if you have strong doubt in something and are constantly questioning it. I’ll be having a good day with my girlfriend and notice I’ll think “what if I don’t really love her” which will spiral into a depressive feeling. I realize all of my thoughts that really cause me doubt with anxiety and depression are rooted in OCD not reality.

I’ve been very very depressed for a long time now... 5 or 6 months of it... I’ve been so unhappy.... I’ve dealt with ROCD for years but this is the worst it’s ever been... I’ve had small happy moments but it was ruin bc I started panicking... last night I felt semi happy. But now... I don’t. My friend wants me to be positive again... she wants me to be happy but it’s hard to feel anything but depression.... 😞 I miss being with my partner like before I miss wanting to cuddle wanting to kiss him and wanting to make love with him..... I wanna cry right now about it... 😖 I’ve almost harmed myself over this.... 😞

I would start with a therapist to get properly diagnosed and treated. Personally when I go through this I get really bad self doubt and depressed. I’ll constantly observe my reactions and feelings. But when I start questioning if it’s ocd or just my feelings is when I know it’s ocd. It’s just one of ocd’s tricks.

If not already I would try NOCD therapy. I started it and it definitely helps a lot. I’m not a doctor I just deal with the same sort of feeling and thoughts on a daily basis so I’m just offering small things that help me. A therapist trained in OCD would be your best route. If things get worse I would not hesitate to go to an emergency room. Just remember better days will come.

@Mandy7710 You cant be sure. OCD is literally about not being sure. All you can do is make an educated guess. You can continue suffering or you can take a chance and get help. You get all people on here to take part in your compulsions.

I can’t stop thinking to myself “what if I don’t love her” but deep down I know I love her and that’s why I’m getting pissed off with these unwanted thoughts because it’s putting doubt in my head when in reality I love her what should I do?

Hey everyone, I wanted to come on here today to just share this post because I’ve been struggling with this recently. I just wanna know if this is a common thing in relationship OCD. So last Friday me and my boyfriend had a conversation that was important, and my emotions were high and I got a little emotional about something he said and we had a long talk about it, the conversation went great and afterwards everything was okay. On Saturday I was so excited to see him after work and I was overflowing with feelings of happiness and excitement. Sunday was great and we stayed on FaceTime just enjoying the day together after he went home that morning, and then came Monday. I remember getting a thought like this, “What if I’m losing feelings for him and I’m just leading him on?” And even this thought, “I don’t really feel anything towards him right now, does that mean I fell out of love with him?” And then the anxiety came, I could literally feel myself breaking out in cold sweats and I could feel the pain in my chest after these thoughts crossed my mind. But what bothers me so much about this is on Saturday and Sunday I felt so content and happy with him and I was so happy and I didn’t have any anxiety whatsoever, and then Monday came, and I had those thoughts and I feel almost numb and I can’t feel anything else except the feelings of worry and fear and my anxiety has been at a all-time high and I keep feeling this pain of guilt and hurt in my chest and I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced the same. Because personally one thing I hate is that one day I can be so happy and energetic and then the next day I can feel numb and feel absolutely nothing towards my boyfriend. I’m not sure if this can correlate with my menstrual cycle as well, but I’ve heard that that can also make your relationship OCD worse and cause you to feel differently about your partner. Just wanting to see if anyone has dealt with the same!
