Hey my ocd family!!

I want to run this by you guys, I'm doing so well at the moment, BUUUT I notice I'm doing something else!! and at the moment I'm really getting affected by politics at work, friends and neighbours, and I guess if I'm being honest my partner!!! and it's happening like this, when I'm okay, everything is like water off a ducks back, but anyone thing right now is causing me to ruminate to the same level as an obsessive though!! as far as my ocd themes, I'm doing really well...... This is where I normally crack and want to hide from the world, because I have a strong feeling everyone is out to get me!! stupid I know, it's like just a simple negative comment from someone at work eg and it plays and plays, I just can't seem to live in the now with this one, because it's the life around me, and people.....

Does this happen to you guys too.

I already spend ALOT of time on my own as it is.

I'm sure most of us have those days where we think everyone is out to get us. I certainly do! Perhaps best to remember the nice things and positive comments you've had from people instead.

In any case, people often make off the cuff remarks or comments that they don't mean to be taken so to heart. It's just tactlessness and perhaps reflects more on them than you!

It's great that you're doing well in fighting the OCD! Don't hide away!

I am learning to try to live in the moment. I think that my self esteem becomes less because I am living in the future. I question myself and beat myself up because I made an expectation about you or me or how something is " supposed " to be or how it should have been. Living in the future is stressful for me also , another contributing factor to my OCD and anxiety. Thanks for letting me share, good luck on your journey.
