OCD can feel real
One reason OCD can be so debilitating is that it feels incredibly real. Even if you're aware you're dealing with OCD or know your fear is irrational, it can still make you feel like you're in active danger or that you need to engage in compulsions to feel safe or less anxious. Thankfully, OCD is treatable: ERP therapy (Exposure and Response Prevention) is the gold standard treatment approach that can teach you the skills you need to break the cycle. Does OCD feel real to you?
