ERP helped me heal and recover from OCD. But what you need to know is that it takes a lot of hard work and effort and you can’t not do the assignments or homework because it’s scary or uncomfortable.

ERP has helped me recover so much and i’ll give you an example. I had an obsession with numbers. 5 was good. 6 was bad. I avoided 6 and especially 666. When I saw it I immediately thought whatever thought I had when I saw it was bad even if it was like going to my moms house after work…I would question going. In ERP maybe 6 months ago, my therapist had me write 6s and purposely wrote 666 and resist attaching meaning and doing compulsions. I am proud to say that when I see 666 I don’t flinch. I don’t add numbers or count to make decisions. I feel like I have so much freedom and that is just one tiny example of my ERP growth. I hope this helped. ❤️

Erp has helped me alot through time. I also am on medications for about a year now. For me also acceptance and mindfulness helped alot (at first I didn't belive in it and all the therapists I went to recomended it to me). I know its probably really hard for you right now but I had severe ocd and its getting better and better there are most days now that I forget that I even have ocd. Keep trying and give yourself alot of self compassion and love❤
