OCD and fear of death
Actually the last few days my Harm OCD has been really quiet. I have figured out a while ago a lot of my themes actually come put of a deep fear for death and I notice that my fear of death has become an obsession on its own. I spend a lot of time wandering about death and the meaning of life (basically existential OCD) however I find it really really hard to fight it. Before I know it I'm ruminating and can't get out of it because it's such a real fear that I know other people struggle with as well so it's harder than more irrational fears like harm OCD... anybody who's struggling with this and if so how do you practice ERP or do you have any other tips?
