She said she's NOT preg. Is she lying?

In early July my friend and I had sexual intercourse with no protection (we were both very drunk and I honestly don't even remember if we had sex at night, but we did briefly in the morning).
She said she took a birth control pill (not sure which one) I believe 3-5 days later if I remember correctly.

It's about 2 months and 1 week later and I'm so worried she's pregnant, even though she tells me she's NOT. I don't know why I keep thinking about it, but I have OCD about these types of things and I can't stop thinking about it because I definitely DON'T want anything to come out of this incident. I text her every few weeks to ask her and she is now getting really annoyed at me and telling me to leave her alone because I keep asking her if everything's fine and she says yes.

Do you think she is telling me the truth? Any insight would be appreciated, thanks.

I couldn't agree with annie more.  I left you a reply on your other thread as well.

One more thing, itwould be VERY adviseable for you NOT to engage in activities that are going to cause your OCD to go off the rails, like having unsafe sex.  Until you get the OCD to a more managable level with professional help, you would be smart to avoid situations that will trigger this kind of obsessive thinking.

I'll repeat something else I said in the other thread....LEAVE THIS POOR GIRL ALONE.  It's not her fault you are obsessing over this.  You're going to find yourself in trouble if you keep harassing her.

If you didn't have OCD, it would seem like you secretly want to hear that she is pregnant.  But since you say you have OCD (and seem to be doing a poster-boy job of modeling it) I'll take you at your word that you don't want her to be pregnant.  Guess what, she isn't pregnant.  And by now, if you have been nagging her and nagging her and acting like she is probably wrong or didn't understand your question when you said "is everything all right," well, by now if the girl were me she's probably not your friend either, and might even be thinking of changing her phone number.

Seriously Harold, get some assistance with the OCD.  You don't want this kind of thing to be a recurring pattern in your life.  One pregnancy scare is one thing, but being unable to stop driving people close to you away with your behavior is going to be a much more serious life issue.   I am sure you can learn to cope with it to the point where you are a better social companion.  Just start doing the kind of obsessive research you are devoting to something that is not true right now, and instead funnel it into finding out ways and means to deal with OCD.  There must be a lot of information on the net, and also you should be able to find a good therapist if you simply start asking your doctor and go from there.

Good luck.
