is asking for reassurance from your boyfriend okay? i feel like everyone needs reassurance some times but i don’t want to ask because doesn’t that make ocd worse?

i feel like reassurance works better for those without ocd and i realized i have a bigger potential of having it when i questioned that reassurance more

No, it’s reassurance and makes things worse.

reassurance for OCD is not good. it makes it worse. although, if you are sad or upset about something that's not related to OCD then it's okay. but it's a fine line and that takes self awareness.

This is a good point! It depends on what the reassurance is about.

No don’t ask anyone for reassurance

What's the context here
