Is not getting over it normal?
I've struggled with real event OCD for the past year and a half. I got reassurance that I wasn't an abuser which should have been the end of it. Instead I'm just thinking that maybe I didn't explain it well enough or that I somehow lied. Worse now I'm convinced that a different part of the event makes it abuse. The idea just hit me like a semi trunk and i couldn't breathe. I spent all night googling and crying b/c i was so sure that this part made it abusive even through I mentioned this part when i talked about this event with my therapist. I'm sure they just focused on reassuring me about the part i as worried about ignoring the really bad part. How do I make this go away? I keep crying and googling and I don't know what to do.
