In my experience, disagreeing with my ocd, means answer to my doubts positively! But the more I answered; the more I had to prove my answer was right, that means more questions about the answer! That lead to a circle of answer-doubts, that never stops! The only way to get out of this, for me, is don't answer!

Usually the way to go about it for me is not interacting with the thoughts, not answering nor reacting. It’s all about time and bei being persistent, the peak of anxiety will eventually go down and to prevent it from happening again I often go exercising or do other things that require a lot of concentration and energy, body and brain related. You got this :)!

Anytime you do something to resist or ignore your OCD, it will fight back and throw a tantrum. You will feel worse before you feel better. Its normal and it will pass.

Gotten worse
My ocd them has gotten worse and I’m trying my hardest to not look for reassurance. Why does my mind play these tricks on me that I’m saying my thoughts out loud????? I’m trying my hardest to ignore it but it’s making me depressed. When I’m ignoring it my brain will go to “everybody will talk about you” “you said something bad” “you said it out loud and when you’ll live a terrible life”. I don’t know what to do anymore

Resisting compulsions
Resisting compulsions feels so wrong and dangerous, I’m trying my best but the anxiety of doing so is immense. Especially because my brain is still not allowing myself to believe that my obsession is OCD, it wants me to believe it is a threat, so even calling my compulsions “compulsions” is making me anxious because that is me calling this whole thing OCD and not real if that makes sense?

Why does my pocd always try to tell my I agree with bad stuff or tell me bad stuff is normal etc… I don’t agree with it but it feels like my body and brain does but I always am like wtf after I get the thought but sometimes if I try to let it pass that feels like I’m agreeing with it. Like omg bro I hate this
