What?

Thank you that's a sweet replie!! But I guess she might be right. I guess my ocd wouldn't be such a big deal if something else wasn't there. Idk what bothers me secretly, but I hope it will go away!!

I guess my ocd is based on something else? My ocd might get a lot weaker once I figured out what bothers me?

@Anonymous urge Hmm a little odd. Because a lot of therapists say that it doesn’t matter where our OCD originated from, we can still decrease it and prevent it from being a big problem regardless by doing ERP therapy. And in your other comment about your therapist saying your intrusive thoughts are “hunting” you- it sounds like your therapist is placing too much importance on the thoughts. The content of our intrusive thoughts are irrelevant

@OneDayAtATimee She didn't put too much importance in those thoughts. She just thinks that there is a underlying problem that cause my ocd to go crazy. I can for sure call my ocd, but my ocd reatxs ob something different. So I guess there is a Bagger problem that cause my ocd. My ocd is a problem of it's own. It is a mental disorder but it is driven by an underlying problem.

@Anonymous urge Ah I see! Yes I’ve often heard that Ocd often lays dormant because we have a genetic predisposition to it, but stressful situations in life definitely will bring out those Ocd symptoms to light and those symptoms start to become problematic. (Stressful situations like breakups, trauma, switching jobs/schools, death, having a baby, etc.) This is a common OCD experience for everyone

@OneDayAtATimee Kinda confused me at first, but now it make sense.

Maybe ur right. She told me that my ocd are mostly intrusive thoughts hunting me.

But I guess there is still another problem that causes my ocd.

@Anonymous urge She may mean that something is responsible for triggering your OCD…. But this is basically irrelevant. It does not matter what “caused” OCD to show up, as the treatment is all the same. ERP. I hope you are working with an OCD therapist who understands that there is no “root” to get to behind OCD. It simply just is. Trying to figure out what caused it is an obsession in itself, and if this therapist doesn’t understand that, then they will likely be more harmful than helpful and actively engaging in compulsions with you (i.e. talk therapists).
