I'm struggling
I did SO well yesterday, but here I am struggling again.

Keep going!! Recovery is not linear… there are ups and downs; 2 steps forward , one step backward… keep going!💝
@Hopeful58 Thank you! I really want to ask you if something follows the lines of OCD that happened to me
@Anony1314 I would be honored to “listen” to your questions…
@Anony1314 You love your children. You had an intrusive thought and your body reacted because you were thinking about it. Because you want to protect and love your kids… OCD is causing you to doubt that… then OCD can keep you in compulsion mode which is the whole goal of OCD. Are you in therapy with NOCD? What is happening to you is a very common OCD theme… you are not alone!!!💝
anyone else have a good evening/ day then fall back down hurrendously the next day? Honestly yesterday I felt great! Like I knew what I like (opposite gender) and these ‘false attractions’ are just false alarms caused by OCD… like I knew these thoughts and feeling are OCD. Today I question it all over again. Are these false attractions real? Why has my loss of opposite attraction feel like it won’t return? Though yesterday I got snippets.
I am STRUGGLING. Ugh why did I allow this to happen
Last week was a lot easier for me. I felt like thoughts didn’t control me and my actions as much as they did earlier. Today was really hard for me and I feel like I’m starting to lose hope again:( I can’t take the thoughts and the feelings that come with them anymore. I feel like I have failed and I’m never going to be happy again.
