As a really bad victim of rocd, I can confirm that it all passes. I thought I would never feel attraction to my bf ever again after getting this. But, I found that being happy with you relationship and not focusing on the thoughts help a lot. Live in the moment. Keep the thoughts to yourself and sit with them. I recently hangout with my boyfriend and we were cuddling in the couch. Wow! I never felt so much attraction! It's because I ignored my compulsions and moved on. Things have been pretty fantastic here on out. Again it doesn't last forever! Accept the thoughts as thoughts, and learn to respond to them in a good way! That's how I'm recovering from ROCD!

It makes me feel like I don’t even want to make the choice. It feels so different from the beginning

@cozycat Ik, I know exactly how you feel, im in that exact same place. In the begging, I was desperately clamoring on to the relationship, now I'm numb and feel like I've found my truth, but please keep fighting friend. Don't lose what you love to this horrible horrible disease. ❤

My NOCD therapist said something helpful to me today regarding “feelings” - Feelings are subjective and when we make decisions based on them, we risk making emotional, rash decisions. She told me to make a pros and cons list. She also said to think more with “wise-mind” (that worksheet is really helpful, Idk if it’s an ocd standard one, but if you don’t know what I’m talking about, Google: wise mind worksheet)

I feel like part of me has just accepted I’m a pedo and I hate it. I hate that feeling. And I know I hate that feeling but my brain is trying to say I’m lying and that I actually love it I get anxiety just by seeing the words “pedo” or “pedophilia”. It was the same when I first started having HOCD and transgender OCD. Not searching for reassurance, just making an observation. But God is it hard to not search for reassurance. I feel like an addict and my head is screaming “I NEEEEEED IT!!” Just a question, has anyone ever felt like they’re just choosing what they want to say that they know will give them the answers they want? Cause that happens to me all the time

Every time I get intrusive thoughts these days I just accept them as true without even thinking about it. What does that mean? My ocd is real? I just realized this a while ago but I didn’t even notice this whole week I had been doing that.

What does acceptance mean/ feel like? Because to me it just scares me and makes me feel like I’m giving into my OCD thoughts.
