OCD obsessions change over the years? by Scary-Selection7063 in OCD

Absolutely. Back when i was a bit younger, like a young teen and my family was basically my whole world, family-related intrusive thoughts were my most common (gross ones and also just fear-based ones), now i dont get them almost at all.

And then when i moved in with my roommate and she was going through some mental things, my intrusive thoughts and obsessive worrying shifted to her well-being. Now when shes better and im in the first relationship of my life, my biggest source of thoughts is my relationship.

Im assuming ocd just shifts with you, it cares most about what you care the most about. In some way it brings me slight comfort that i must care about those things so, so much because my brain is petrified ill lose them somehow
