In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about being in a romantic relationship with someone who has Relationship OCD. This episode is specifically for significant others/ partners of people who struggle with relationship OCD.
As a quick recap, Relationship OCD, also known as ROCD, is a subset of OCD in which sufferers are consumed with doubts about their relationship or their partner. Their mind continuously questions things like their love for their partner, their attraction to their partner, their compatibility with their partner, or their partner’s love for them.
So in this episode, I will be discussing practical ideas and guidance for creating a successful relationship with someone who is dealing with Relationship OCD. I also share specific things you can do in order to support your partner on this journey, while taking care of yourself as well.
Enjoy

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this, I feel like such a weight is off my shoulders!
you're welcome! feel free to share!
I’m trying to find a way to help my partner understand, this is helpful thank you
you're welcome, Angel!
This is amazing. I have been struggling with this for years.
7:24 - 7:44 really made it click for me. that was my a-ha moment with this video. I’ve read articles about what ROCD is and all that but that section really helped me understand it.
Came here to say that your face is incredibly aesthetic. It’s like dad bod chiseled chad squidward. If you were more lean you’d be probably exactly like chiseled squdward or the chad meme. Fucking insane genetics my man!
how do i not reinforce the cycle when my partner comes to me for comfort? do i comfort him or do i just let it go? he isn’t getting any professional help currently so he sometimes comes to me with his thoughts and i reassure him that they are just thoughts. is this the right thing to do?
Hi Sammy, we have a private community specifically for you. We also help people whose loved ones is suffering from OCD and anxiety. Feel free to email me at support@restoredminds.com - hope I can help!
Hi sammy I have the same question. Did you end up getting a reply or an answer by any chance
What do we, as non OCD partner, help someone with rocd get"help"? What is help? $5000 worth of therapy!??
Forcing someone get help is a dead-end, as you've probably noticed. Focus on your own well-being. Be a parter who doesn't criticize or give out uncolicited advice. Matt has an excellent video for partners where he explains secondary gains and how trying to identify those and eliminate them sometimes is helpful in passively forcing your partner to seek help. I've been with my wife for over 10 years and in our discussions she always denies it's ROCD but it's obvious that's the case.
