It’s like I can’t even argue with it anymore. It feels so genuine and real like I just don’t want to be here. I don’t know it’s so weird. Like it feels like I’m going to do it

@cozycat i can’t explain how i feel either i just keep saying i feel so weird. but im definitely falling into compulsions more and it’s making me feel stuck also. i can’t tell if this feels more real then when i first started showing symptoms

@ anonymous I get that. Like it definitely does feel more real than when I first started I think. Like it feels inevitable almost

@ anonymous I know. It just keeps feeling like I know I want it. Like it’s not ocd anymore and that I’m just forcing myself

@cozycat i have that exact feeling. but at the same time i do not want to do life without him. it’s so frustrating. like the other day i messed up and he got upset with me and my brain immediately was like he’s breaking up with you and i ugly sobbed for like 3 hours straight

@ anonymous It’s like I feel it in every bone of my body and I can’t fight it anymore. It’s so uncomfortable feeling. It’s like I don’t even believe myself when I say I love him or want to be here anymore. Is that normal

@ anonymous Like I’m lying to myself and to him. But because I feel like I “know” it just mainly feels like I’m lying to him

@cozycat And it’s like I don’t want to be around him which makes me think it’s even more true. And like I’m just searching for ways out and all of that stuff. It feels so natural compared to other thoughts but others say that they feel that too but it doesn’t make it any better or give me any feelings of relief

@cozycat i think it’s just another one of ocds tricks tbh. we wouldn’t be thinking it’s actually if ocd didn’t make it feel actually real.

I feel the exact same way. It’s like I’m actually thinking these thoughts and it’s not the ROCD. I used to love every second and took every opportunity to be and spend time with my partner but it’s as if I want to but there’s something in my body that’s repelling them from me or won’t let me love them :( I know I love my partner so much and I want to be with them, I see a future with them but it feels as if I don’t even care anymore or I have thoughts about me hating or feeling repulsed by them. Do you guys experience this?

Yes except my mind keeps telling me that I don’t love my partner so it makes it hard for me to tell if I do or don’t

@cozycat Yes my mind saids these things too, it’s really hard. Keep your head up and some days are going to be easier and harder then others. You just have to learn to sit with the uncertainty and accept the thoughts, don’t agree with them but let them be present and act is if you don’t care, say “maybe I don’t love my partner, great!” It sounds silly and fake but we have to rewire the brain to not see this as a threat and overtime the thoughts will slow down.

@cozycat I’ve felt everything you’ve felt and then some. There are days where I don’t even know what is me and my OCD, there are days where my OCD tells me I don’t even want to text them, but at the end of the day I choose to be with my partner because love is a choice, not a feeling and they’re worth it. You decide, not your OCD

It keeps feeling like I know I want it though. Is that ocd or just me knowing.

Me and my boyfriend have only been together for a short period of time....and he's head over heels for me...at least he says so. All the time I'm so scared he's going to break up with me or any time something is uncomfortable I shut down and think I did something or he's thinking about me in a negative way and I don't know how to stop it. He doesn't do anything to seem like he wants to break up with me, but any time he does something a little different then normal I immediately think of the worst. If he's being really quiet I'll be thinking *is he going to break up with me* *does he not want to be with me* *is he just hanging out with me right now because he wants a girlfriend to pass the time* all of that stuff. And honestly I'm so scared..... because what if my thoughts are true?

my thoughts are screaming at me telling me that i dont want my relationship anymore and that i realized i lost feelings. i have a beautiful relationship of two years with a beautiful boy that loves me dearly and i deal with this thoughs for a year and a half. Im so scared it feels so real im scared i have changed and my last therapy session made it worse she basically told me i have to realise the thoughts are true and stop lying to myself. And made me think i am so scared and heartbroken bc i put high expectations on myslef to be with my boyfriend for all my life. Maybe i dont want to hurt him??? im always questioning my feelings for him 24/7 for over a year. I wm tierd

I broke up with my boyfriend today because of how bad my anxiety had gotten I couldn’t tell what was my heart and what was my head. I’m heartbroken because I feel like I lost my best friend and I truly do have love for him and want him in my future. I want to spend the rest of my life with him. We broke up because I’m not on medication for my anxiety and have a doctor’s appointment coming up on Wednesday to see about getting some. I still feel anxious after our breaks but I feel guilty to admit that I do feel better. I’m still just anxious in general a little and I don’t know why. We had decided to stay in touch but not on a daily or even weekly basis, just because there is no hate in our relationship just pure love. I’m just so scared and sad that I really will lose him and be all alone.
