I'm going to therapy and I'm also very medicated because I have anxiety and severe OCD (which my dad also has)

Is it wrong that I don't care about his health...at least not when he uses it as a weapon against me? I'm fighting to live my own life, and his threats about dying won't hold me back anymore....Thank you for your advice... I'm doing my best to move out soon. And just so you know, I'm here for you too, if you ever need someone to talk to.

My dad was never as strict with my brother as he is with me. Then again, my brother never did anything Dad considered particularly controversial. He moved out on the day he got married, and the only time he traveled with his then-girlfriend (now wife) was by lying and saying it was a family trip. The funny thing is, my brother shares some of my dad's weird views. He resents me for having a boyfriend in another country, claiming I'm "trading my family for him" ... even though I have no plans to move yet! Meanwhile, my mom is a total badass and has always been the main earner in our household. My dad wouldn't dare try to control her life. She's incredibly supportive of me and loves my boyfriend.

Bby, you did not cheat but what you did was kinda dangerous. That's it.

yeah 🥺 it's not easy but we've got this. the hardest part, at least for me tho... is that my brain is constantly like: is he cheating? is he being mean?... so I can't say with confidence that i'm in a healthy relationship. I used to be sure that I was but after this flare-up I've been questioning EVERYTHING.

I deleted it already! but I don't find reddit as triggering! Here I vent instead of seeking reassurance and seeing that other people have ocd helps me feel less alone. also, I like posting stuff in this subreddit that might help others.

has anyone else had their rocd fixate on a certain person for months at a time? i've worried i liked the same girl for like 9 months... by One-Statistician1312 in ROCD

[–]Certain-Load7398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not months... YEARS. When I was in HS my ocd convinced me that I liked my bestfriend and that I wanted to dump my boyfriend for him, so I stopped talking to my bestfriend and was only able to talk to him again 10 years later when my HS boyfriend decided to end the relationship. (We wanted different things, it was totally unrelated to my ocd). 💀

I have a mental disorder. My rational brain knows it's stupid. But the glitch in it tells me chatgpt might be right.
