Flare up
I’m having a definite OCD flare up. How do y’all usually cope once you notice? Is there anything that helps you personally find a place of balance?

Exposure and response prevention pretty much, but general coping skills can vary too
I feel that flare ups are just things you learn to live with. By practicing ERP you are able to notice a flare up and just let OCD perform its little tantrums until it goes away. Think of it like a toddler not getting it's way.
