What is Relationship OCD?

What is Relationship OCD

Relationship OCD is a specific subtype of obsessive-compulsive disorder that revolves around relationships and interpersonal interactions.

People with relationship OCD experience persistent and intrusive thoughts, doubts, or fears related to their romantic relationships. These thoughts are often irrational and unfounded, yet they can cause significant distress and anxiety.

Individuals with relationship OCD may constantly question their feelings for their partner, worry about their partner’s faithfulness, or fear that they are not good enough for their partner.

These thoughts are intrusive and unwanted, but the person finds it difficult to control or dismiss them. As a result, they might engage in compulsive behaviors, such as seeking constant reassurance from their partner, checking their partner’s social media, or mentally reviewing past interactions to alleviate their anxiety.

Affirmations are powerful statements that you repeat frequently to change your thoughts and beliefs and align your state of mind with the quality of life and relationship that you want to develop.

Flourishing and healthy relationships are a by-product of a relaxed and healthy mental and emotional state. The following affirmations will help you do just that!
