for me I’ve wrote down “I’m moving too fast” this was a huge trigger to me when people would make this comment. I did this and replied to my thought with “so what” or “who cares” this comment doesn’t even bother me a quarter as much as it used to

for me i’d say this feeling feels so familiar this must mean my partner isnt right for me or i dont love my partner anymore these are straight up fears of mine and settling into them helps you separate yourself from the thoughts

Waiting for therapy
Hi everyone. I'm feeling kinda scared because I have to wait a whole month to start ERP therapy, but I feel like I need to start doing exposures now because the longer I wait, the more anxiety I get. It just feels like the OCD monster is getting worse. One thing that helps me is asking one person about an obsession I have...asking a person that I trust, and then doing an exposure after I get the "ok" to do it. I feel like I do need 1 reassurance and then I can go ahead and do it. I know i'm not supposed to ask for reassurance at all, but i dont think you're supposed to do ERP on your own right? Does anyone have any suggestions for what to do while waiting for therapy? PS-the reason there is a wait is bc she's on vacation. After she's back we will meet regularly.

How can my fiance best support me
Specifically how can my fiance best support me without offering reassurance? I'm trying to encourage myself to grow and keep trying ERP, but I'm not sure how I can include my partner in a healthy way. I plan on talking to my therapist about it soon, but I wanted to hear thoughts from people who have been dealing with it themselves.
