Does anyone know how long it can take to get rid of pure OCD?

As horrifying as it seems you can never get rid of pure ocd it stays with you, you just have to keep on top of it and keep happy remembering that whatever problems you facing (ocd wise) they are not you and just the disease that is messing up your mind, it also helps to keep it at bay with a therapist. You must find someone to talk to no matter how bad the thoughts, you never committed the act only had a thought. Good luck

Omg just noticed it's you from the other post ❤

Yes it's me ?

I’ve been dealing with pure ocd for years now. it seems that i’ve recovered from having compulsions and graduated to having just pure, horrible obsessions and fixations. which for me is even worse. for me what helps is just remembering and telling myself “this isn’t real, this is just ocd”. it’s way easier said than done though. also SELF CARE: it’s so easy to neglect taking care of ourselves especially when we’re going through something as bad as that. when you’re in a stressful environment or situation, that’s when you’ll notice the obsessions getting worse. see if there’s anything you can improve in your lifestyle, are you sleeping enough? and are you eating regularly? all this impacts the state of your brain soooo much, and i’ve only realized this recently

Yes I sleep and I eat, I think this comes from being unemployed but I'm working now and I'm only 19 .
