My husband refers to my ocd as the stock market. expect it to go up and down.
@Anonymous Oh really! Haha I like that x
I relate. Accept that it won't last. Accept that this can happen and doesn't mean you're not recovering. Keep trying your best not to get caught up compulsions.
@ada110 Thank you so much
Yep I know the feeling
@Anonymous How do you cope?
just when I think i’m having a good weekend and I can forget about my struggles my brain tells me i’m not allowed to feel happy and that there’s always SOMETHING i need to be worrying about. so frustrating :(
Each night I go to bed determined to stop compulsions and start beating this disorder. Then I wake up and it smacks me in the face first thing and I’m doing a compulsion before I know it. I told my therapist that I would try to handle it like we do in session, but I’ve already failed. It seems like I can’t bring ERP into my “real” life.
i came out of it now i’m back in , what helps?
