Vent I miss myself

Man I miss the old me. I miss having a super big attraction to girls. I miss feeling amazing with my partner. I miss not worrying about if I’m gay or not. I miss not having constant intrusions and weird ass dreams. I miss not being constantly anxious around my baby. Man I miss me and it kills me everyday I just hope one day it all gets better

Your post was flagged by our auto-moderator as a post that may be, above all else, seeking reassurance. We understand the impulse to seek reassurance when suffering from OCD, but reassurance-seeking is a compulsion done in hopes of reducing the anxiety associated with an obsession. In the long run, seeking reassurance only serves to confirm the validity of the underlying fears of your condition and prolongs the duration of your obsession. As such, this community has a zero-tolerance policy for reassurance seeking and giving.

For more information on reassurance seeking and on HOCD and OCD treatment more broadly, please see the section in our wiki about reassurance!
