Rocd/ false memory guilt
Kinda long but any advice because I can’t find ways to work through this😣... My boyfriend and I are super honest with each other, one of my biggest fears is feeling like I’m not telling him all the truth or that I’m lying to him.. so I tend to confess a lot. I’ve been really struggling with one thing specifically and don’t know how to go about it. A couple weeks ago my ex added me on Snapchat, I immediately blocked him once I saw it and told my boyfriend about it. Fast forward to last week, my boyfriend and I had a bad argument and I felt like things were going to be over, so naturally my rocd thoughts were going insane like “I should just add my ex back after we break up, he treated me better than this, etc” we ended up working it out and things are better now. BUT the other day I just went through my block list just to see who is all blocked and realized my ex wasn’t on there!?! So then I started freaking out and questioning myself like omg I lied to my boyfriend now because I told him I blocked him when I actually didn’t, or what if I actually unblocked him when I was upset and just don’t remember it?? So now I just feel awful and guilty and feel like I have to confess this to my boyfriend but then I’m like how do I even explain it?? “Yeah remember when I said I blocked him, I meant to but didn’t.. it was either that or when we were fighting I was thinking about unblocking him and I guess I did, but I don’t remember actually doing it” I already felt bad about the thoughts I was having when I was upset, so now I just feel like I’m hiding this 😭😭
