Doing things I don't want to! When I have to do chores I think alot of similar thoughts, "you got this, it's for the better in the long run" etc

Sometimes, I have the craziest thoughts that I always pay attention to and using ERP therapy like annihilates the urge to check and ruminate. It’s been a massive help. Been using it for 4 months now

I have health ocd and my husband got very sick recently and I had constant exposures. I was able to deal using the skills ive learned through NOCD. The support I recieved from my therapist was vital to getting through this.

I use it for my social anxiety even when it doesn’t include ruminations. It is very effective.

Every day anxieties or doubts. The biggest one was when I tried it with a phobia I had as a Guinea pig experiment before diving into it with ocd. It worked and was a big eureka moment

@scutodragon It wasn’t working because you were doing compulsions.

@Nica From my experience at least the easiest way to stop ocd is from the root stopping the compulsion at first when it’s first born as in not to react to it after the relief of finishing the last compulsion then I try to stay in this theme as long as I can trying to ignore and prevent the next compulsion until it eventually happens the problem is sometimes my ocd whining gets to the point where I can’t function sleep or do normal human things how can I broke this cycle

Believe me I tried but it was never meant to work I was always meant to be with this menace of a disorder While envying the normal trashy lucky people
