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)

Does any one ever question if their ocd isn’t ocd?
That’s kinda my question. All my thoughts feel so realistic and so now I doubt if they are ocd and if I just can’t make my mind up about something and I’m using ocd as an excuse or something idc I feel like this post is word vomit.

Not seeking reassurance, just prayers
Lately my OCD has been very horrible, it’s been more convincing than ever to the point where I’m genuinely convinced that I like this stuff, when I get a thought, I’ll hear my intrusive thoughts go “oooh, I like that, I’d do that.” and I just don’t freak out nor feel bad, I just feel like I like it even more, and feel like I would do/act on it and like it, and the feeling is strong and it lingers forever? It genuinely feels like I do, and I’m just lying now, i can’t tell if I make these thoughts worse or anything All I remember mostly just being like confused sometimes when these thoughts happen, but since I’m getting strong emotions that I like it, my brain says that means I did and I’m worried about that being true because I don’t understand nor know It’s like I am resisting to like this stuff now, it’s even tougher now than it was before

Ocd
My OCD has never been this strong, it's so real, it feels like it will never go away, it's never been this strong for me and it's very scary.
