I’m not gunna reassure you and say yes this is ocd. But what I will tell you is that ocd will try anything to trick you into thinking that you found “your truth”. I also am going through rocd and sometimes it feels like that. But you have to hold onto that little hope. That you do love him. Hold onto that. Just know that you are not alone and we are here for you. I suggest looking up Awaken into love on YouTube, she has a lot of good content and she also went through rocd. Just try not to use her videos as reassurance or as a complusion. I know right now it seems like everything is different but you just have to accept that’s how things are right now. Keep doing erp and I promise things will get better.

That’s your ocd talking. Don’t listen to it. Do the opposite of what it tells you

Are you positive. It feels so genuine. Like I don’t feel anxious or anything

@cozycat I don’t want to reassure you but from other posts iv read it does seem that you love him. Or else you wouldn’t be having such a hard time. As an exposure, write a break up letter. I can’t tell you what to do, you just have to trust yourself. And I know it’s hard with ocd cause you can’t trust anything. Ask yourself, if you didn’t have ocd would you be having urges of breaking up with him?

Try to be kind to yourself @cozycat I know it can feel impossible. Try and go for a walk grab a coffee, don’t sit init both literally & mentally. I’ve just taken myself out, 1. To pick up my prescription, but I’ve stopped in a cafe I love & got a coffee and very late lunch/ early dinner (I’m in the UK) maybe reach out to your therapist on Monday morning. Slow steps, I’ve just spoken to my GP and been prescribed something to hopefully help with the thoughts & anxiety. With my new job I’ll be signing up to therapy privately. It will get better because your taking the right steps 💖💖

It’s like I feel happy about it. And it was like “partners name we have to break up” and that made me think it felt good.

Thank you so much for this because it’s all I’ve been thinking about for the past 3 days. It’s awlful, yesterday I spent the whole day in bed just feeling broken. But knowing there are other people in the world experiencing this & recovering makes me feel hopeful.

It feels like I don’t even like him any more. It’s insane. I used to be so anxious and now it just feels as though I feel this way

Has anyone gotten to the point with ROCD whether you question if the relationship is actually want you want anymore ? I can’t tell if this feeling/thought is OCD anymore or if I genuinely need to leave. I really don’t want to feel this way but I don’t know if wanting to be with my partner or wanting to love him is enough. I’ve had all the extreme anxiety before but no longer. It just feels off, numb like something is missing that I can’t put my finger on. My mind is saying that maybe it just is my time to leave and move on. I can’t figure out if this is just another OCD tactic or true 🤷🏻♀️

I’m very stuck!!
I just want to love him!!! It’s not fair!! Everytime I talk to him I wanna break up… I can’t tell if ROCD is there anymore… please… I want this urge to go away!!! 😭 What if breaking up is the only way… to know. I don’t wanna break up with him. Did anyone on here 100% believed they lost feelings bc of obsessing? 😢💔

Agreeing with obsessive thoughts feels good?
I don’t want to break up with my bf, but when I think about it and say “yea it would help me,” I finally feel peace after months of ROCD, I feel like I’ll be able to breathe again, to feel better, like it’s what I need. But I also know that if I were to get into another relationship, it would be the same cycle again. It’s just I’m not even fighting this thought and feeling- it feels good for once, like I’m admitting what I really need. But again, I don’t want to. Just an hour ago I was telling him I couldn’t wait to move with him and I meant it. And now it’s like “nah it feels good to say you don’t, you’ll be free.” Why does it feel good to say? Is it because I’m giving into a compulsion (just agree with the thought since it feels “right?”)
