OCD Causing Separation Anxiety | Feels Like Family Member Will Die

you could definitely incorporate exposure into this scenario.  if this is causing distress and impairment in your life i would ask what are some ways that these fears get in the way of you living the life you want?  i would then try to go and do those things and allow yourself to be anxious.  treatment is all about doing the things that you value even though it causes you anxiety.  facing your fears and trying to resist rituals/safety behaviors but forging ahead with your values anyways.  it will be hard at first but it will get easier and easier the more you do this.  good luck
