I have it 🤚🏻 cheating OCD is typically a fear that you have somehow cheated or done something just as “bad”/in the realm of cheating in the past or a fear that you will cheat.

I have it too. It’s fucking sucks. But the reason why this is our theme is because we value our partners so much that it’s easy for OCD to attack us from that angle.

@Just another OCD guy I’m so sorry to hear you go through this too, but am relieved to hear I’m not the only one. You’re right it absolutely fucking sucks. Like I can’t imagine a theme worse than this. And it’s scary and invalidating that this theme doesn’t get discussed very much.

I have a question I want to ask about this too, but I'm afraid it's too awkward or would make everyone uncomfortable. Like maybe it's not the right place to ask such a bold question... :(

@😷 I have pornagraphic images pop into my mind of other women... it bothers me so much because I love my wife SO much and I don't want to think of other women... but it seems like when I start thinking about the pornographic images my mind starts trying harder to think about them more, almost like my mind is trying to sabotage me in the moment... Sometimes i can fight them off better than other times, but it's just difficult to deal with... Does anyone else deal with this at all? I don't have any desire to cheat on my wife, but I wish the bad thoughts of these images would go away out of my mind... I hope this topic/question isn't too inappropriate for this app... I'm sorry if it is... I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable...

@Drew777 This is not inappropriate and more people should be talking about if. I think everyone with cheating OCD has probably experienced this is some way. Yes, we all think about sex, attractive people, fantasies. Everyone does. We are human beings. It does not matter.

I just wanted to say I’m so glad you posted this because it helped me to see I’m not the only one with this theme and people rarely post about this on this app.

I imagine people are probably afraid to post about this sort of thing honestly... its an awkward and sensitive topic. I'm not sure if I have "cheating OCD" or not though, this is not the main thing I would normally worry about on a regular basis, it's kind of like just sometimes... it's complicated though, but I don't want to be confusing. I'm glad I could help you feel better though so that you know you're not alone in this specific type of OCD theme. :) you're never alone, don't forget that. Have a great night Maybe,MaybeNot. :)

@Anonymous I don’t really know how to control mine and actually never been diagnosed with it . But I defiantly obsess over it. I’m probably not the best person to get tips from but we can about it if you want too else where.

Cheating OCD

Do you ever have interactions with people and fear that during the interaction you may have cheated on your partner and can't seem to recall it? Sometimes when interacting with people I fear I cheated on my spouse with them afterwards. Mainly fearing I've kissed them and somehow instantly forgot. Just wanna know how common this specific fear may be

School anxiety/OCD

So I have cheated on tests and exams before, and I just now have started feeling guilty about it because of my OCD flare ups among everything else in my life. I also have really bad relationship ocd that I may cheat or may have cheated in the past (I didn’t) and so having these thoughts that I cheat in school makes me feel like a really bad person. I didn’t feel bad about it until now, because I know that it’s wrong. I still can’t shake the feeling of guilt and I feel like I should confess to my professors.

Always wondering

Hey everyone I know I’ve mentioned this before but, I wanted to share again just in case if anyone new sees this. I deal with cheating ocd really bad, like I always have thoughts about the past and such and get worried about things. I know my morals and values and I know id never ever cheat, but my mind always loves to play the “What if” game. It really sucks. My boyfriend is the sweetest and a god sent to me and he is always there for me but ugh this ocd dealing with cheating and false memory/real events kills me, anyone else relate? I dont know how to put up with it anymore, Just today I remembered I had an old twitter account which is now X, but I remembered I deleted my account a long long time ago but ugh I used to be on twitter so much awhile ago and my ocd acted up and was like “You better go check to make sure you didn’t do anything.” And I remembered I sat with myself and said “I know my morals I would never do that to him.” And then my ocd was like “Are you sure? What if you did?” Etc and my anxiety is now so bad about it now :(
