Hello,
Has anyone ever dealt with obsessive thoughts around special events? Such as birthdays, weddings, etc. That they have to be perfect and if not, they are meaningless. And if those events are meaningless then life is meaningless. My wedding, which was in 2017, was difficult. My husband was having mental health issues the year leading up to it. And the day of, there were several stressful moments (including our priest being a total jerk and my mother-in-law being displeased with the wedding.) it’s been three years and I still upset about it on and off, and when it’s bad, I am very depressed and anxious. wondering if anyone has dealt with this before, and I am by all means not looking for reassurance that the day was probably good despite the stress, because I do a lot of reassurance seeking around that. Thank you very much.
