I was wondering if anyone has this same issue. See when something or someone upsets me badly I have a tendancy to repeat myself (vent) to others that I trust over and over again. My only offline friend never seems bothered by it but this online friend is bothered by it and told me recently that talking about one subject is really getting to him. I don't mean to but when this one thing (subject) bothers me I feel the need to vent about, my OCD thoughts go on and on about it. So here is the cycle, I get triggered (upset) then I repeat the same old question or rant/vent about the person or thing that is upsetting me over and over. I did ask this online friend if any of their other friends had this same issue and they said no, I feel like crap cause of that.
Does anyone else have this issue of repeating/ venting about things over and over again? If so what do you do to cope with that.
Thank you

I struggle with this issue, too. People, especially my family, get tired of hearing the same thing over and over again. They don't understand why I am so preoccupied with the subject. They put up with it, since I have always been like this.

Keeping busy, setting 'thought' boundaries and medication has helped.
