  • Hello loves!
    We received so many important questions from the ROCD Course Level 1 (rocdcourse.com) Community this week that we wanted to share publicly with you.
    Of course, many parts of the LIVE are cut out to keep our members anonymous and feeling safe, but we have added parts that we knew would help you.
    We go over questions like:
    How to work on the thoughts that feel so real? (1:59)
    What if I’ve never been in love with my partner? (6:00)
    Comparing past relationships with my current partner: (6:45)
    Working with toxic and red flag issues (7:08)
    Is my love genuine? (11:36)
    Compulsions and Reassurance with forums, group pages etc. (14:16)
    Working with conflict (15:28)
    Why does the brain go into comparison? (17:02)

    rocd really is interesting. intrusive thought that bothers me the most is "what if i am with him only because i feel bad" and sometimes it really gets hard. the thoughts can feel so real even tho in my heart i know its nonsense. i decided to use rocd as an opportunity to get even close to my partner who is already so supportive and i love him with all my heart. i hope more people who are struggling with rocd see this video!

    Kiyomi, you sincerely saved my life. Ten months ago I had a huge meltdown, I had so many intrusive thoughts, break up urges and felt miserable. My partner was so confused and stayed by my side despite the pain he felt.
    I didn't know what to do, so I googled my symptoms, I knew it was something deeper. I found the term rocd and then I found you and Awaken into love. I started to understand what was going on and went to see a therapist who confirmed I was suffering from rocd. I am still with my partner, and I am so happy and grateful for this relationship. Thank you. I still have hard times but now I have the tools to work through them. Thank you, sincerely

      Tell me, is this relationship OCD? When I think about a girl, I immediately get anxiety. When I communicate with her, the feeling is that I am uncomfortable and anxious and that it interferes and frightens! When I say different pleasant words, I think good about her, when I say that I love inside, as if I don’t want to, as if it’s not true and it’s scary! I am pondering this feeling, my thoughts, looking for everything on the Internet. And suddenly I do not like thoughts, and suddenly the feelings have died out. I get hung up on some little things, shortcomings. And when there is a thought that you are in the wrong relationship, that they are not healthy, that you need to leave, then immediately panic. I really do not want to part and love her very much. I don't understand what it is.

      @@idreamtadreamlastnight Good day! You may ask, most likely I had Relationship OCD, but I constantly doubt it. But now my thoughts have practically disappeared and my anxiety has subsided, but doubts and feelings that I have stopped loving, that I have cooled down to the girl and that feelings have not gone away. Is this normal with relationship OCD? I'm thinking it over, trying to prove that there are feelings, but it's like I'm lying. I'm trying to find info

      I’ve had moments like that too. For months I just sort of felt dead inside and slept as far away from him in the bed. I tried on my wedding dress and cried because I felt nothing. But it seemed to go away once I took some time for myself and acknowledged those feelings by journaling and now I’m back to where I was before…in a happy relationships and excited to get married. It’s going to be okay. I definitely suggest journaling your thoughts and feelings out if you don’t already ❤️

    Hi,
    You Said something about getting in compulsions when I read through the Posts. So My questions is whenever I get a feeling of intrusive thoughts and I go right away to yt to watch your videos, am I feedingmy rocd? Thanks for your tons of explanations❤️

    I've been on a 3 month waiting list for a therapist in the UK, this anxiety I've been experiencing regarding my relationship has been crippling, panic attacks, emotional breakdowns, guilt, Shame, feeling disconnected / out of love etc, all common ROCD symptoms from videos I've watched etc, but my therapist doesn't think I have OCD, just a form of relationship anxiety, yet I experience so much of what your videos describe & other Videos. I guess I'm freaking out because if I don't have ROCD & it's just anxiety does that mean my feelings & thoughts are real? Or do anxiety & ROCD share the same experience RE feelings/ thoughts & sensations?

    I’ve been with my beautiful partner for almost a year now, he lives in Tasmania I live in nsw and I lived there for several months and we gained this strong amazing relationship, and I had to go back home and go back with my parents and the ROCD started and until I found your channel I never really new why I thought like this in the past and it’s because I don’t want to be like my parents. My mum manipulates me and especially my dad make him feel bad for things he enjoys, she’s visibly hurt dad and he’s so uncomfortable around her but he can’t leave her because she has a disability and no money he works 9 hours and is tired and can be rude and sometimes not very interested in her interests but who can blame them, they fight so much and are so toxic for eachother but they’ll never leave eachother cause they “Love” eachother. I’ve been so worried my happy relationship will be like that like what if we won’t be happy what I’m not bf old enough he’s not N old enough when really I’m so so so so scared of losing him and us being like my parents. Being stuck in a 6 month lockdown and away form my partner for now 7 months is hard but we keep trying and being so supportive of eachother. I just want to be with him and learn to not listen to my thoughts and anxiety but learn and become stronger with myself and my partner.
