Has anyone recovered from Real Event? Tips?

Hi! Real Event OCD has been one of my main subtypes. I forget who said this quote but it goes: "Sometimes what we’re not doing is more important than what we are doing." So what's important is to not ruminate about the event and not give into to safety seeking behavior. However, the best thing you can do is practice ERP. You could try an imaginal exposure script. This is where you would take one of the fears driving your obsessive thoughts and play it out to the worst possible end. (I know this can sound hard but eventually you’ll get to a point where you are relatively comfortable with the uncertainty of these past actions, and the obsessive thoughts will reside.) If you're not ready to do an exposure by yourself, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a NOCD therapist.
