What’s an ocd Conqueror badger? Whenever I’ve felt like ocd isn’t the boss of me anymore I still can get thoughts and they still shock me or disgust me but I find them so much easier to move on from than when am in a bad ocd episode. It’s like having two brains I just wish I never had to suffer with ocd and had anxiety my whole life all I ever remember as a kid is overthinking and worrying about things.

Yep! They don’t go away completely, unfortunately. I still have intrusive thoughts but they aren’t as persistent as before. My OCD mostly flares up during times of stress and/or depressive episodes. If I have a disturbing thought, it’ll def give me anxiety but it no longer consumes my day to day life. I’m able to recognize that it’s an intrusive thought and move past it. But ofc, I have moments where I fall back into my old habits and things get hard again.

I don’t display but I have the badge and still have intrusive thoughts and anxiety. The biggest difference is that I’m more able to catch and stop compulsions and handle the anxiety
