Look up what encouragement is as it's different and maybe tell people close to you that know about your ocd about the benefits of encouragement instead of reassurance
I have not let myself ask for reassurance. I understand why you what to ask for it but I always feel better not asking for it. Reassurance is a strong compulsion it will make your ocd alot worse. I often still want to ask for reassurance but I did have a huge decrease in my ocd when I start stoping myself from doing it.
