Take deep breaths. OCD makes us confused in the head, so your OCD is likely trying to make you believe you did something that you didn't.

I know a couple of things I did that were screwed up . I had a male online friend and lied he was gay because I was scared my bf would be mad (ex boyfriend trusma induced) and I would send him tik tok videos asking if I looked bad or fat . And one time I said my boobs looked good as an off hand comment. But my bf was fine with it , and forgave me . And wants me to keep talking to the guy because he would help with my anxiety and I had a friend to share things with (I don’t have many of those) how can I contact you btw through this ??

I had this exact same theme for literally years. That is my original theme that got me diagnosed with OCD. I would also get time lines confused and confessed every single time. I remember trying to remember every single second of every single time I had ever been drunk and when I obviously couldn’t, then my brain would tell me I had suppressed a cheating memory. It was hell so I completely understand how you feel. My therapist here NOCD would assign me ERP homework every week. That includes watching clips of people cheating on each other and resisting the compulsions of rumination and reassurance. I would also write down my “memories” in great detail and read them multiple times a day until it became boring to my brain. I’m so sorry you’re going through this. You can beat this.

Thank you , I have chatted with a lot of people online and been in anxiety groups I’m scared I cheated there even tho I mentioned my bf over a thousend times . I joke sexually sometimes and get scared that’s cheating or try to give guys girl advice/help them etc etc . List goes on . And I’ve never been in a healthy relationship before so it’s hard to know what’s right . And I’m so scared of messing up none internationally . I haven’t left the house since last October . And it’s just been really hard .

@Emmy56777 Your feeling are 100% valid. It’s scary to wonder if you’ve cheated. It’s a scary thought. But that’s all it is.. a THOUGHT. There’s no proof. Tell yourself that maybe you did cheat or maybe you didn’t. Try to sit in that anxiety without ruminating or trying to figure it out. What helped me was telling myself that if I did cheat then I’d take accountability and face the consequences when there is proof. It’s been over a year and still no proof. Check out Ali Greymond on YouTube. She’ll help you find a way out of this. “Ali Greymond cheating ocd” should be a good search. Best of luck my friend. You’re stronger than you think.

since one of my biggest fears/events of my reocd happened (not the way i thought it would happen!) i've been healing and understanding a lot of things (like the fact i was the one being abused in my old relationship) but thanks to that my ocd has been trying to launch on a new event and i don't know. i was in a cut and off relationship with my ex three years ago, this happened when i was an older teenager and really confused. during the time i cut off momentary with him i started to get compliments and cute messages in an anonymous confession page and used to post them replying in a playful way or just with genuine curiousity. the thing is, i got with my ex once again in secret for the last time but honestly i'm realizing lately that i didn't love him anymore and being with him made me feel terrible but i wasn't strong enough to leave him once for all. i didn't tell any of my friends about this because they hated him (for a good reason) and i was also disappointed on myself for this. he pushed me a lot make it public and i would say to him a lot of times that i wasn't sure. the thing is, that i still got that type of messages on that anonymous confession page and still publish them on my profile while being with my ex in secret, but eventually i stopped doing that. then i finally left my ex (was horrible). but since what happened to me, i cant stop thinking if that was cheating – it was cheating? i'm not sure anymore and i feel like im going to have a relapse.
