Holiday Over A Year Away And Im Already....

I have posted 2 threads previously. Cut a long story short, I basically cheated on my partner years ago (never more than a kiss) but with someone from work. Stopped speaking to the person and didnt tell my partner until 2 years later whilst away on holiday.

It may sound strange but I was/am fine plodding away in normal busy everyday life with working/my child etc but the thoughts of 'romantic meals, nights away & especially holidays scare me'. Even though I have nothing to hide etc, I still panic at the thought. He recently suprised me with anight away (told me the day before) & i instantly panicked/cried. Ridiculous I know. Ive tried councelling, Im on citrapram 40mg & I am currently having hypnotherapy, I am wondering if anyone thinks I have just put up a wall about these things becuae I didnt enjoy them for so long before I told him & when I did it was because we we were away?

It may sound daft to people but it effects me & my family massively & I feel like I cant see the light at the end of the tunnel sometimes.

Hi OP,

It sounds to me like you might have OCD - more specifically, confessing OCD. It's quite common but one of the less-well known kind of OCD. Perhaps you could look into it and if you think it does sound like that's what might be going on, you could speak to your GP about appropriate treatment.
