Back again 🙄

Hi guys! It’s been a while, and I’m back - unfortunately. My OCD has come back, full swinging at that. It seems to be dwelling on ROCD. my brain is legitimately tricking itself, into thinking I’ve done things that would hurt my partner. (Flirting with other guys at one point, etc) when I know for a fact, that that was in the past with an older ex (I’ve learned and I’ve grown) so why is it that my brain is trying to trick itself into believing I’ve done something wrong this time around? My anxiety has been awful, and I can’t seem to shake this grip on my OCD it seems. I beat it once, and I’m praying I can again.. just doesn’t seem like there’s any end in sight this time.

The biggest problem with OCD for me - Life becomes too busy & I am very slow in doing physical activities. My new strategy to overcome - Don't believe in "Prevention is better than cure". Believe in "Little bit prevention is better than cure". See how it goes.

I definitely will do that. My mind is just at war with itself. I can physically feel myself trying to fight back, and it literally feels like a battlefield in my brain haha. 50% is trying to overcome this, and 50% is pushing back and making it harder. But that little bit is still something!!

It seems we have to refight the same battles again ana again. It sure does get old, but it's what we have to do to live a better life. You got better before and you can do it again.
