Life is really hard at the moment. My fiancé is really struggling with OCD. He will stand washing his hands or in the bath for hours on end, literally up to 3 hours. If we have sex he won’t sleep back in the bed until I’ve changed the sheets even though we both know they’re not dirty (I understand this is irrational thinking). It seems to have started when Covid first hit, and unfortunately March his dad died unexpectedly, since then it’s just become so intense. We have two children and I can’t cope looking after the two of them by myself while trying to make my fiancé comfortable while not enabling him with his obsessions. He’s actively trying to get help but the wait list to see someone is so long and things are getting worse every day. I don’t know what more I can do to help. Outside of our home it’s like his OCD doesn’t exist. At home it’s so extreme.
if anyone has any advise I’d really appreciate it
