I can’t help but feel like I have to confess my thoughts to my husband when they are so awful . I tell him because I know I don’t want to act to them , it’s just that they are so bad . I feel like I need to tell everyone the thought I have if its a bad one about them :/

Confessing is a compulsion. If you want to get better you need to resist it. You can do it :)

Resisting this compulsion to confess does not mean you agree with the thoughts, it means you are working towards recovery!

Yeah I’d agree I kind of made it worse because it definitely made me fixate on the thought more

I told my boyfriend mind he didn’t really understand it at first but I told him some of the ones I had and he kinda laauaghed. It made me feel better. He always just tells me they are just thoughts and to distract myself but it’s just hard.. he just also tells me it’s okay as long as I don’t act on them

Exactly my husband def makes me feel better but it’s temporary relief which sucks but he’s laughed at my intrusive thoughts which is a little therapeutic because he knows I wouldn’t act on them . He just knows me more than I do thats why he’s married me , I love him so much

It’s sucks because I feel like the thoughts never go away and I can’t enjoy my time with him

I know, I know exactly how you feel. All you want to be is with HIM & the thoughts race in intrusively & unwantedly & make you feel confused or different . Just resist the thoughts or acting on them , & you will feel like yourself one day
