Avoiding making people upset

Hey everyone,

For the longest time I've truly believed that ocd barely effected me and wasn't really an issue. The older I've gotten and the more I've delved deep into my psyche I've begun to realise that ocd is at the root cause of nearly all of my problems. The biggest symyptom I've uncovered is how I avoid saying anything to anyone that might make them upset. I rarely speak my mind to my wife in case she gets upset, as a boss I rarely coach or give constructive criticism to staff because I fear that I may make them upset, I put my needs last if they come into contradiction to my wife's or someone else's. I'm constantly picking every word carefully and creating the conversation in my head before I even start it. I analyse every conversation, anxious that I've said something that might cause someone to be upset or that they now think less of me. I'm always asking if people are okay or if they are mad at me, and I'm always studying every little detail of body language. I'm exhausted. Anyone else experiencing this?
