Help - Love Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Postby girle2020 » Fri Sep 04, 2020 6:51 pm

Hi,

So I am struggling with obsession with a guy. I met him a while ago, but never thought anything of him until we randomly started talking online. He was so nice, attractive, smart, and funny. I have been depressed for years, but when I talked to him, I felt happy. But then he started ghosting me on and off, and he always cancelled when we were supposed to meet up. This went on for a while. I had gotten used to talking to him and would reach out every few weeks, but he wouldn't reach out first.

I have been desperately trying to move on, and I feel so crazy and ashamed that I am having such a hard time from a situation like this. I think about him every day, and I would do anything for us to start talking again. I miss the happy feeling I used to get, and I found it so easy to talk to him whereas I am quiet and don't ever know what to say with most other people/in social situations.

Please help. I've tried everything to move on. I haven't spoken with him in over a month, but I am still obsessed and it is distressing me.

I know it's easy to obsess. Take OCD and add what I think are some BPD traits and I have done my share of obsessing, back in the day. After a while you just have to let it go, sweetie.
