For a person with ocd their brain tend to fixate on small detail that a human only pays attention for some seconds or minutes and sometimes tend to fixate on a thought which is completely false but this is what is this disorder is this is what makes us different from other humans but we can do recover from it
Youre absolutelt right. Speaking of details. Without giving TMI. I have a list of photos of my spouse i like to look at.. I blocked out the baxkground so it wouldnt have anyone especially bcuz my ocd freaks out. but i missed a spot and it was an umbrella. I dont think anyone was in the photo but i worry because the nature of these photos is obviously romance and intimacy of my partner. So i deleted that image. Then i looked at another photo of my spouse which I recall had me next to them so i cropped it out. But i worry what if it was someone else instead of me and a part of them was misscropped out. Ocd really spoils romance intimacy
OCD spoils life itself
I can understand you
Hi I am new here. Looking for a friend with the same ocd relations to me. I’ve been struggling with checking OCD for a while now. It includes things like checking my social media feed because I am scared I shared something inappropriate, and even rereading messages, emails, or anything I write thinking I said something bad. Does anyone else struggle with this? It’s became part of my life now and i hate it
Its a very anxious night for me as a parent. I went to tuck my child in and i worried with groinal responses i still hugged my child goodnight than worried did i brush up or lean toward them inappropriately and then she was sad i was leaving. I wanted another hug so i hugged her again and ocd tried saying i had bad intent. Its so exhausting fighting ocd as a parent in distress
I’m not saying any of this to be rude or hateful in any way!! Basically, I like this guy and I really love him, but, everytime I look at this one photo of him, I keep noticing he looks unflattering and it makes me worry, because I’m scared what if he’s ugly? And why does that even matter? Why can’t I just love him in peace without having to check his photo to make sure he’s not ugly? Like that sounds really rude and disrespectful and it hurts even more to know that he’s self conscious and I would NEVER want to hurt him so I don’t tell him I check his photo to make sure he’s not ugly, I get anxious when I notice/feel that he is unattractive/unflattering, so I check till I feel certain that I don’t think he’s ugly, why do I even do this? Why does it matter? Why does my brain make it difficult to even look at a photo without worrying, can I be normal? I say “I think he’s cute/I love him” to his photo and my brain is like “nope cuz he’s unattractive” then I get worried and for what??? I ask myself why do I care and I genuinely don’t know
