Why do you want to beat your OCD?
I want to overcome OCD because I’m tired of it consuming me every hour, every day.

That’s a good one. I don’t necessarily want to beat it because I know it will always be there, but I want to be in control of my life rather than the ocd controlling me. The ocd can stay in the background. And I want this so I can live a full, colorful life, not trapped in my room.
i totally get how exhausting and consuming ocd can be, feeling like it's taking over every moment of your day. it's really tough to deal with, but reaching out for help is a huge step. 💪 by the way, have you heard about this new AI-powered OCD therapy tool called 'unstuck?' when i was in a similar spot, feeling overwhelmed by ocd, my NOCD therapist recommended this free AI OCD therapy tool called "unstuck" (unstuckmyocd.com/try) and it made a big difference for me. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it provides personalized, step-by-step support for those moments when ocd feels too much to handle on your own, kind of like having an OCD therapist in your pocket. i hate when people promote stuff, but i really think it can help you because it's changed my life. lmk if you have Qs or just want to talk more! <3
I want to beat OCD because it puts stress on my relationships, my health, my future. I thought it was under control but with constant stories of Covid coming back, infections from mosquitoes, flesh eating bacteria in the water I am becoming scared to leave my home. I want my normalcy back.
I would like to beat OCD because I was never diagnosed with OCD type disorders until I became a teenager. I can stay in a major state of depression for years and never get admitted because I used to say to myself, “ Fake it til you make it “. I also went down to 90lbs in college due to not eating and the the nurse practitioner on campus made me see a counselor all throughout college and a nutritionist. I learned to cut myself for the first time in middle school due to a stressful move from Southern NJ to NYC. I can’t believe it but I am still, “faking it til I make or escape it.”
My OCD is getting really exhausting, it makes me take double the amount of time in almost everything. I really don’t want it to be part of my life. I have had OCD for as long as I can remember, and mine goes through phases where some months it’s less things to do, but for the last few months it has been crazy. I have intrusive thoughts and bad anxiety, if I don’t stick to my routine or do things a certain number of times my brain involves it with something bad is going to happen, and if it doesn’t feel perfect to me I have to do it again. It is just getting so annoying at this point and I need to learn how to always stay at a low amount of OCD, because I know that it will never fully go away but I want to get it down as much as possible.
