OCD doesn’t play fair with guilt

OCD can latch onto anything, including your sense of right and wrong. For a lot of people, it shows up as moral perfectionism or an intense pressure to keep a “clean slate,” often by doing certain compulsions to feel like they’ve made things right again. From the outside, this can look like being extra careful, polite, or considerate. But on the inside, it can feel exhausting. A tiny mistake can spiral into panic, guilt, or feeling like you’re a bad person, even when you haven’t done anything wrong. If this is something you deal with, you’re not alone. OCD can make everyday moments feel heavy, but it is treatable. Specialized ERP therapy can help you break these patterns and get your quality of life back.
