@anonymous1963 I had a great day I noticed some of my compulsions I wrote them down and I’m reading over it and I’m gonna practice not giving into them but it was a great day thank you. How was your day !
Feeling stressed out right now
@Anonymous What’s going on brother
OCD tried me
doing a little better! false memory gets the best of me a lot of days .
A lot of intrusive thoughts about some violence stuff that’s out of my control. Like accidents happening to loved ones. My partner is home from work so she’s talking me through it. But yeah, rough day.
@Anonymous Definitely watch the harm episode click the blue button on the communit page it’s circle on the right bottom. I have those once in a while the expose used with the m vidos of doctor Patrick McGrath guides us through those thoughts he’s the ocd guru
Had a good day but I’ve tried me alot today so decompressing by commenting to support others, that has been the best way to help me on this app so far.
@Iloveyou24 Definitely feel  the same way
What did you do today to work on managing your OCD? All wins/accomplishments are welcome to be posted! :-)
I’m sure it’s been a rough few days for everyone, maybe even weeks or months. Hell, this last YEAR has been up and down for me! But I wanted to take this moment to congratulate everyone for coming this far. It’s no small feat! OCD is a killer, and it’s good at its job! The fact that all of you are still here fighting is a testament to how strong you are! We may not have the answers or explanation to everything, and that’s okay. We have to stay in the present, not the past or the future. Remember to practice being uncertain! It’s hard to remember the good days we’ve had despite all these horrible ones! There’s no scar to show for happiness, but we’ve got plenty to show for misery and pain. Keep hanging on, you’ve got this!
Earlier today I did some pretty high-level contamination exposure, inspired by my therapist, and now I'm listening to a triggering song on repeat — the very song that kicked off my first serious bout of OCD in high school. There is a part of my brain that is telling me I can't handle the song and that I should find a compulsion to do, but my goal is to have it in the background while I go about my self-care tasks. I'm already starting to get used to it 💪 How are y'all challenging your OCD today?
