I finally have a logical explanation on my ongoing ocd real events. My brain is calmer rn but after an hour it comes back with guilt thoughts and I have to explain myself I’m not that guilty how my brain wants me to be, this has worked for me for a couple of hours today now.. I feel a bit of relief

You mean... talking to yourself, out loud?

Or not out loud depends but out loud feels better

@Nonamehelp Totally, it works fo me... I find it calms the anxiety and stops me from getting too involved in my thoughts. Takes me out of my head.

@7EMPES7 I’m glad it helps you stay rational too. Sometimes we forget this disorder can be tricky for our brain and makes us believe stuff and over exaggerate things.. always staying grounded is my motto.

@Nonamehelp Yes, I definitely think it over exaggerates and makes us believe things that aren’t real. When we see a part of something our confirmation bias takes over and we put our own spin on things. It causes us to think the worst.

@7EMPES7 When the worst... isn’t happening.
