Write down your triggers and then what you use to do when you feel triggered. "When I feel the urge, I always count to five, wash my hands, ask for reassurance, google, make mental reviews, avoid something and so forth..." Compulsions are what you are doing to get rid of anxiety and make you feel more safe and in control.

Try stop doing something, a behavior, a habit . If you feel triggered then that's usually a sign

Compulsion
I just realized that I have this compulsion where i search ocd forums up and down, looking for someone describing the exact scenario/event that im obsessing over right now. Otherwise it’s like i cant convince myself that it really is ocd. Its so stupid because even if I find what I am looking for, I know it is only giving me temporary relief. I was just about to post a description of the theme/scenario here, but I am proud that I stopped myself ⭐️
