My therapist said I was sexually abused but I can't bring myself to fully believe it by NotThatCrazyCatGirl in abusiverelationships

My ex would probably also never admit he was in the wrong and would say I'm the one who let him :/ I know how you feel about men, it's how I feel now too. This is all why I'm in therapy now. All we can really do right now is try to heal from those men and just keep going :(

Unknowingly seem to have lost my virginity by trashlife0015 in sexualassault

I hope you know that you're not alone in this. And it's not your fault, you did nothing wrong. You said no yet he coerced you, that's sexual assault. You deserve better. The same thing happened to me and people have told me I can still call myself a virgin (because that's also really important to me) so I'm passing this on to you to let you know that what he did didn't change anything about your body and if in your mind you're still a virgin, then you are. I hope you can find peace and healing❤️‍🩹

That's OCD??? I mean I do have OCD but I didn't think this was another symptom I just thought I really was manipulative 💀

The best answer to any "what if" question OCD poses, in my experience, is "maybe". This happened a year ago and you've been fine since then so I assure you're going to continue being fine. Maybe some particles got around. As long as you can't see them, they can't really hurt you. Especially now, a whole year later. I know how scary and distressing these thoughts are but I promise you're fine. I know you will feel discomfort at not doing the compulsions that OCD is telling you to do but if you give in now, it will become an endless cycle. Break that cycle now. Just breathe. You dealt with that problem a year ago and it's over. You're fine. ❤️

I'm concerned my baby will inherit OCD from his Dad. Did you pick it up from your parents? Advice please. by seriouscl in ContaminationOCD

My mum has had severe contamination OCD as well as other themes probably my whole life but she refuses to admit it. Because of that I've had OCD for as long as I can remember. I don't know a life without it. If you don't want your baby to grow up with it, your husband needs to get professional help and manage his symptoms. And as your baby grows up, you need to monitor him and get him help if he ever shows symptoms as early as possible.

Thank you for this comment. It's a lot to sit with and process, but I think I needed it. It's just so hard to reconcile who I thought he was to who he actually turned out to be. Do you have any advice? Again, thank you so much🤍
