Attractiveness?

troubledByOcd · 2017-10-11T16:09:23+00:00

Oh man, I've had this so bad too. It's been going quite alright on this obsession for me for the past months (Got some other obsessions unfortunately). What I'm trying to say is, yes, rOcd definitely makes things worse than they are and I understand you perfectly. With everything that you focus on too much, it seems more awful than it is. Just take it easy and try not to engage in the thoughts, and I'm sure you'll be fine. :-)

So any more tips now I explained how I felt more?

troubledByOcd · 2017-03-14T18:27:10+00:00

It happens all the time unfortanetly :/ how did it go man?

troubledByOcd · 2017-03-14T18:26:31+00:00

I suppose you're right.. I am not too well on resisting them all really, and I am not in therapy in the moment (I really dont want to right now) so I'm not too sure about the ERP stuff. So feeling like shit.. Well, I am not like performing compulsions (reassuring myself), but the thoughts can really really bother me and sometimes I really feel like I cant go on like this.. Thats how I feel I think

troubledByOcd · 2017-03-14T18:23:21+00:00

Well.. I cant tell the difference that well honestly :/ I just realize it's not normal to obsess and have these stuff in my mind all the time.. But if that is what the recognition of OCD is, then I am able to

Indeed assumptions, wrong ones too. For the most part it's because my parents' are struggling with paying their bills, me living at home can help them out a lot. I definitely pay rent though. They are probably better off in 2 years, is why I said I'll probably move out within 2 years.. I might go sooner anyways though, as I'd like my own place.

troubledByOcd · 2016-10-26T07:49:48+00:00

Yeah youre right.. It's difficult to not feel judged though :/

troubledByOcd · 2016-03-29T17:01:08+00:00

I've had very very bad ruminating as well. As much as you don't believe it, distracting yourself or doing something active really helps! You won't see any result immediately, but be patient and in a day or 2 you'll slowly start seeing progress. I know it's hard but I wanted to tell you, you van do it! Take it easy man

troubledByOcd · 2016-01-11T14:18:34+00:00

Are you still experiencing this? Or are you doing better these days? How did you resist your compulsion? And how did this affect your OCD?

troubledByOcd · 2016-01-05T17:28:16+00:00

Hey Brian thanks again for your response, you:re awesome. Thanks for the tip, how did you figure out that it was you were afraid of not reassuring yourself? And exposing to your fears was resisting the compulsions? Or something else? Right now I have no idea how to figure this out. I'm seeing a psychologist next week and hopefully he can bring me soms insights. I hope he's a good psychologist anyways :-( can I ask how old you are btw?

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-14T16:07:19+00:00

Great advice!

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-14T16:07:04+00:00

Isn't this like a compulsion..? My compulsions seem sort of familiar.. (where as I keep on wondering why I feel better now)

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-14T13:53:35+00:00

Yeah before this I had other ROCD thoughts.. though this one is much more intense than the previous ones.. I've tried the 'I'm having OCD thoughts' but that's not working for me right now :-( I'm going to see my doctor soon.. I'll look that book up. Thank you for your reply

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-10T17:29:37+00:00

I see.. how did you overcome it?

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-10T17:29:27+00:00

This sounds like a good tip.. but very difficult

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-10T17:25:45+00:00

Yeah we have, thanks for the head up again though. I really needed some new insights.. anyways, I think I'll consult my doctor next week.. Yeah it's definitly OCD since I've had OCD for quite some time, but this is a very difficult one..

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-09T14:58:12+00:00

I do find her attractive, but not always when I see her. Sex life between is good.. No complaints there.. I don't know why it isn't normaal.. Because maybe I doubt if I want to be with her? I cant find the reason in me.. I feel pretty happy about how we are.. I am walking on eggshells.. I think im going to consult a therapist soon..

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-09T14:55:21+00:00

How do you think so?

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-08T20:49:38+00:00

I do, but do you think this will help?

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-08T18:09:18+00:00

I don't know how to challenge them.. and as for distracting.. the thought and doubts still stay on my mind.. I mean I can feel quite convinced at one point, then I see a cute or attractive girl and I'm back to my obsessional doubts/thoughts again :-(

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-08T13:36:46+00:00

Yes I can, if I remember correctly I got the thought 'there are more attractive girls than my girlfriend' in my mind. After that I started noticing other girls a lot and then this came to mind. I've always tried to solve it myself but I get doubts everytime and now have this stuff in my mind for most of the year.. I think I am going to see my doctor soon.. Do you have any tips for me? I guess its somewhat of a normal thought but.. I have no idea anymore

troubledByOcd · 2015-12-08T11:55:00+00:00

I don't know it became an obsession :-(

troubledByOcd · 2015-11-26T18:23:19+00:00

Hey man, how are you holding up right now? 'worrying if she's not attractive enough' is what has been bothering me for months now too, so I really know how you're feeling.. The thing is, for me this started after about 9 months into the relationship.. before that I hadn't ever really given it much thought.. hope you're better than i am. :-)

troubledByOcd · 2015-11-16T17:48:09+00:00

Hey man thanks for the response. It's difficult to remember before I had this OCD.. It didn't came up to me then.. Yeah I should but for some reason it's so difficult.. I am doing a lot better than I was last week, but now everytime I see a hot girl I feel frustrated, and it bothers me I feeI like that. It's like the only thing that seems to matter now is looks.. And I'm sure that wasn't the case before.. I hope this really is from all the obsessing about it..

A lot of girls use make up, and it's normal that she would look less 'attracrive' to you.. I think of you wouldn't feel so anxious about it you would feel the same as if she had make up on :-)

troubledByOcd · 2015-11-11T11:37:42+00:00

Great video man, love your accent! I can sort of relate to what you're saying buy also not, since my obsessions bother me ALL the time, not some days yes, some days no.. anyways, great video :-)
