I'm in a rut because I've developed an irrational belief which is to do with something I love. I can't go into detail on what it is because I wanna keep it private. But no matter how much it is proven wrong, my mind and anxiety still forces me to believe it. Its hurting me! ;( How can I overcome this? Thanks

That's the problem with irrational OCD beliefs. The more we try to get reassurance, the more they persist. But that doesn't make them true.
It's not the easiest thing to do, but the trick is to stop asking for reassurance. If possible, accept the uncertainty and the irrational belief will subside. Easier said than done, but give it a go.
