That's right! Never give up! Even if you have to do baby steps.

I feel like this. Every. Single. Day.

I feel like this too :(

If you’re over it, that’s the first step to changing behavior. And it’s hard Rocco’s get behavior! I know I’m going to struggle to start working out again after my injury’s got me down for two months and counting—but it’ll be worth it and I don’t like what I look like after living an extremely seditsrty lifestyle. But it’ll be worth the hard work and the difficulties. It doesn’t matter how many times you get knocked down as long as you get up again.

I’m in the same boat, I’m sorry you’re struggling like this too. Every day I say “tomorrow will be different” but I’ve been saying that for years 😅

OCD was winning in my everyday life for almost two months. Hours of ruminating over Poison Ivy contamination, weird I know. Had a lot of it in the cottage we're leasing. My therapist had me yell stop once an hour and think about the worst thing that could happen in my ruminating. It was a way of taking back control on my time frame. It started freeing up some mind space for normal thoughts. Still compulsive a lot but able to mow the grass and pick the weeds again. Whatever your Poison Ivy is, start fighting back. Too soon to report any ERP victory . Good to all y'all. It's hard work but don't put off getting help and getting going. We can win these battles in our minds and reclaim our lives.
