Depends on the day, how many "contaminated" objects I encounter, and how many times it takes to make it "feel just right" to my mind. On a good day, maybe only like 2-4 times. On a bad day, could be literally as many as 50 times or more, not an exaggeration.
Hi, Iโm new to this app and newly diagnosed. Question for you all, What things did you normalize and do without a second thought that when diagnosed, you realized was actually your OCD? Mine was how concerned with germs I am. I hold my breath when I open a door so the rush of wind doesnโt infect my lungs from whatever is in the room. I thought everyone was really careful and concerned like me. But Ive learned itโs not normal the lengths I go to. What was yours?
Does anyone have any tips on how to handle contamination OCD?
Cause I don't have those Extreme cases where I Need to wash myself 100 times, or check things like light, all I have are my thoughts.
