I personally don't. I think it comes when you're able to understand how to deal with your obsessions once they arise. ERP is a super important part of life post-recovery.
I don't have any advice, but I feel the same way. Life changes trigger OCD symptoms for me, too. I guess the only way I've handled it is with therapy.
Whenever there are changes in my life my OCD gets work. I tend to cling even harder to my “just right” OCD thoughts. I try to just remind myself that I will be okay just like I always am and ride through the wave.
