Anybody else?

Question

Anybody else living with someone with OCD? My husband is and I'm not. Sometimes we are late to gatherings church dr appts bc everything has to be just so. One time he asked me to help with his haircut and I did well apparently he didn't like the end result. He spent 2 hrs fixing it. Just wondering if there are others. Honestly I know some things can wait but it would drive him crazy all day.

Answer

My other half is - I know it drives him insane, but I'm thankful for him being there and supporting me through it,  as I'm sure your other half is for you. We do appreciate you, even though it's really hard for you guys. We know things can wait or arent important, but to us, it's way more than that in the moment. It completely takes over. 
Has he seen anyone about it? I tried numerous meds and therapies and finally found something that helped me (cbt) and I've been doing really well for a year or two now. There is hope!

Answer

I’m OCD. Thankfully my husband has taken time to learn how I like things and he also helps me to make sure everything gets done. He used to be quite messy but now he likes to try to keep things the way I like. We both now want to come in to a nice clean and organized home. For me it’s incredibly stressful and gives me a ton of anxiety if things are done just so.

Answer

My aunt is ocd when it comes to certain things. It has to be done a certain way or she freaks out and will do it all over again. It drives me insane but i kind of just let it go.
