I had a baby 8 weeks ago and I just feel like the dynamic between me and my boyfriend has changed I can feel so lonely at times like we're spending to much time together and I have nothing to do and I'm just a nusence I'm worried he'll just get sick of me he don't do anything and reassures me he dosnt feel this way but I just lay in bed thinking and planning of how I will deal with if he randomly decides to leave me I have very intrusive thoughts and clinically diagnosed ocd I just wish I didn't feel this way I'm constantly over analysing everything and need constant reassurance he still loves me I'm getting fed up of it myself so I can only imagine how he feels I love so much and my daughter is the best thing in the world and the way he loves my son is such a blessing but I'm worried my mental health and issues are going to ruin a good thing for me and my intensities are going to drive him further and further away

I have done this but I just struggle to get my head around whether it's post natal depression as it's not to do with my baby I don't feel down about being a mum I feel down about my relationship and my partner and it's come out of nowhere
