Hi Everyone,

I am new to understanding OCD and ive been dealing with something lately. I am constantly up and down about my feelings for my boyfriend. Hes great, hes a lot of what I want in a partner, and he makes me happy, but I can't shake a feeling that something is missing. Any chance this is OCD? and If so, how do I determine OCD vs a gut feeling?

@amiableCurrent6758 What exactly is making you doubt your partner? I think doubtful feelings are pretty normal in any relationship, but you obviously feel like something is off because you posted in these forums, instead of a relationship forum. Can you be more specific about what you think is missing? Is it just a feeling, or is there something more specific?

Anyone suffering from pure o? I found myself having this about a year ago and it tends to come in waves. Some days and months Im great and then others Im miserable. The anxiety from these intrusive thoughts make me feel horrible and the pain its causing is getting beyond bareable. The intrusive thoughts are about hurting myself or the people around me and when I first started having them I about lost my mind. Theres no way I would ever hurt anyone or the people I love and these thoughts made me feel like the devil. I find comfort in knowing that Im not the only one suffering from this, and that its not just me going crazy, but the thoughts always return and sometimes with a vengeance. I know what its like to deal with this silently, not knowing what it is, so if this can help anyone out there thats great. If anyone has the same feelings and would like to talk please feel free!
