OCD Urges

I have been going through a rough time, by giving into OCD urges.

Once the urge starts to happen to share any piece of information, since I am doubting, I give into it right away.

Then, I go online and check if the information is correct.

The downward spiral begins with OCD now.

OCD will keep putting new thoughts of finding out more information about a topic, so that I can go online frequently to do checking.

In addition, my urges are to share all this information with my husband, which creates another OCD cycle of compulsions.

When I am sharing the information, OCD makes me doubt about whatever I shared with him.

The doubts are if I must have left out some information, or he misunderstood any of the details.

My husband keeps warning me not to give into OCD urges, since it will lead to another obsession.

OCD focuses on different topics, and the information that I am obsessing is about Indian movie stars, how they are related to each other in the film industry.

But I really do not know what has happened to me, that I just kept giving into OCD, and it has become a big mess.

Now I have come to the point, when OCD is making me doubt a piece of information, that I had shared with my husband.

It is giving me doubts that I might have not told a detail, and whatever I must have told, he must have misunderstood it.

Thus, these thoughts keep on popping up, wanting me to give in, by repeating all the information to my husband again.

But, I am going to resist it, and not going to give into the compulsion.

I will try to accept the thought and let it be there.

Thus, my lesson learned is that not to give into OCD urges when they arise from the beginning, and try to use the therapy techniques instantly.
