OCD is making the break up worse

[rainywednesday34]

I have been diagnosed with OCD and have just referred for therapy. I’m a mess and to be honest I’m getting on my own nerves!

relationship has been dog shit really for the past year but he ended things 4 months ago. We have 2 children. He’s cold, distant and looks as though he is having the time of his life right now. He has never been good at communicating and when he does he can be quite narcissistic…. He blames me for being narcissistic (I sometimes think what if I am?!?)

im going out of my mind. The constant thoughts are stopping me from doing almost everything! Pregnancy hormones aren’t helping either.

im heartbroken but I know he isn’t the man for me. I know he most probably did me a favour to walk out on us. He’s an arse to say the least.

dont know what I am getting at but I needed to vent to someone who is willing to read

I’ve read your previous posts and I’m so sorry you are going through such an awful time. You should be looking forward to the birth of your baby, instead you are having to deal with the horrible fall out from your relationship breaking down.

Are you getting support from the pre-natal team around your MH? I really hope they are able to give you extra support and help.

Do you have family/friend support?

With regards to your Ex, block him on social media and keep contact to a minimum. I’ve heard others have had to resort to email only correspondence and maybe that would work for you in the short term. That way you wouldn’t be anticipating his calls or texts and you can just check the emails when you feel strong enough to do so and reply in your own time.
