Hi everyone.
So, first of all, I'm not diagnosed with OCD. However, I think that I may have some of the symptoms and that my problem may fit in this category.
I'm an worrier since I can remember. However, lately I've been having intrusive thoughts about things that I did months or even years ago and that I think that can affect my current relationship. Things that I did or say that may seem inoffensive to other people, but to me, I think it makes me a bad person... Some things from my past (and then, I have the urge to confess to my boyfriend, to relieve the sense of guilt), and other things from now. Then, I think my boyfriend doesn't deserve a girlfriend like me and the guilt appears.
I talked with my mum about this and she thinks that my worries are irrational, but I feel so trapped in my own mind... I just want to make sure I'm a great girlfriend, but my mind always convinces me I'm not, to the point of having panic attacks.
