Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Support Group
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder, more specifically, an anxiety disorder. OCD is manifested in a variety of forms, but is most commonly characterized by a subject's obsessive (repetitive, distressing, intrusive) thoughts and related compulsions (tasks or rituals) which attempt to neutralize the obsessions.
My GF broke up with me which causes stress which causes the OCD to excelerate. Now I feel everyone is better than me and I dwell on it almost every waking moment. Any ideas to stop that circle of thoughts.

Write the entire thought out as you think it until you have writer's cramp. Then go back and read it over and over. You'll start to get the absurdity of the thread of thought. I dunno, it works for me sometimes.

Maybe try to think of (and possibly write down) a few good things you did each day. You know, got a lot of work done, accomplished something difficult, tried something new. Force yourself to think of the good things that you have going for you.

I know how hard is to loose someone you care about, and how much it stress you out. I would try to find a hobby to take your mind off things.
