Does any of you guys repeat words? I do it unconsciously, it just kind of happens in my mind but i don't think it "gives" me relief like most of my compulsions, but it does prevent my mind from being occupied with the intrusive thoughts for a while. Is it a compulsion?

Yeah can relate I think it is

I don't put any conscious effort like the other compulsions though, it kinda just happens. Any idea how to stop it?

@LydiaK Like I heard stopping rumination can help. Ikno it’s hard bc I struggle with it too

@Overcomer Honestly any advice would help bc idk

@Overcomer I've actually managed to reduce rumination these days, because i completely cut off compulsions. I stopped trying to explain myself to my thoughts.

@LydiaK So that’s what I’m doing
