Hi! I’ve noticed what works for me is just using alarms on my phone. If I have a specific task I want to get done, I’ll set a timer for 30min and do it until the alarm goes off. Then I’ll set a 10-15min timer to take a break and when that one goes off I get back to work. (I also have sooo many alarms set for specific times and have them all scheduled for every day and just turn them on/off when I need them)
@Karate.chopper Hi! This is really helpful. Thank you! I’ve tried doing a version of this, but I just have trouble being consistent. But i’m going to try it again
@jay101 I wish you luck!! Sometimes if the task is something I really don’t want to do, I like to try and turn it into a game (example: laundry, I’ll ball my clothes up and try to see how many I can make into the basket & keep a lil point system)
@Karate.chopper Thank you and I love that!
I've been using Finch for a while and it helps
@JetGurrrl Oh nice! Thank you! I will check it out
Good morning, I have been noticing more and more that I might have OCD. I am currently a student and this is causing me to slack a lot during school. I am a student who has a 504 plan (accommodation for my mental health) and would like to add this app on my 504 due to my school having a no phone policy. My question is, how can this app help me while in school? What are things that can happen during school that might lead me to using this app? I am new to this app and barley finding out that I might have OCD. If any clarification needs to be made on this post please let me know! :)
Hi! I’m new to the NOCD community, but I’ve been dealing with OCD since I was 12. I’m almost 29 now, and my biggest issue is health anxiety. It’s gotten to the point where getting work done is nearly impossible because i can’t stop spiraling. I’m lucky that i work remotely, but also makes it easier to be in my own head… Asking for advice - how do you all deal with the intense anxiety and are able to make it through a 9-5 work day? Any suggestions on how I can actually be productive? Thank you!
Hi all, I am in need of any advice/help I can get. Over the past year or so, I have gotten a good handle on my OCD. I even achieved OCD conqueror status with the help of my provider through NOCD! For awhile, I was doing really well. Unfortunately, during March/April I experienced some really bad triggers and overall, my OCD has ramped way back up. Recently, I have been hyperfixated on time and my perception of time. I am not sure what triggered it but now I am constantly checking the clock. I am scared that the days are fading away and there is a ticking clock I can't stop. Has anyone experienced this? Is there a way to stop this feeling of doom?
