How I cure ocd with ocd 🤨 is it possible

Pardon my English :🥲 Today I want to open a small wound from my past to if possible help other wounded souls. Maybe your OCD is different from mine, but many of our actions are the same. I don't know if this will help you, but if you are someone who repeats actions because of OCD, maybe my story can give you hope. It has been 4 years since i feel like overcome maybe 70% if not 100.I lived OCD for about 10 years. Even now, obsessive thoughts still come sometimes, but that's okay. I can move on from them in a few seconds. Even it’s not 100 percent cure still my body is not slave Ocd anymore i move freely even though i have some obsession though Since my teenage years, I was stuck in my room and spent most of my time in bed. I had very little activity. My body felt like a slave to my OCD because I had to repeat actions again and again. It was hell. Like many people, I did my own research and visited many doctors. Doctors can guide us,🫩 but they cannot fully feel what OCD feels like from the inside. Everyone's experience is different. U can’t know test of food by just looking the food Not everyone is born with a silver spoon. Many of us need to work, and working while living with OCD is very difficult. This is what helped me. I call it my 3 steps. Step 1: SSRI medication I took an SSRI (Sertraline). After about 6 months, it gave me a little more courage to face my OCD. My fear became smaller, and I felt more ready for the next step. For me, Sertraline also made me feel a little emotionally numb, almost like a robot, but it helped me get started. Step 2: Fight OCD with OCD (make a deal with your OCD) This may sound strange, but it worked for me. The reason we repeat actions is usually because we are afraid something like obsession though , or we think our obsessive thoughts might become real! . So we obey our OCD repeat action , do I right?? For cure ocd most important thing is reducing repeating or redo actions because of ocd obsession though So I made a deal with my OCD. When I felt the urge to repeat something, I told myself: "This is my last repeat. After this If I ever in my life i !!!intentionally!!! repeat it again !!because!! of any Ocd obsession then all my OCD fears will become true." I am NOT recommending this to anyone. This was only my personal way of resisting my compulsions, and it happened to work for me. I created a new obsession that stopped me from doing my old compulsions. It may sound strange, but it helped me stop repeating my rituals because I became more afraid of breaking my deal than obeying my old OCD. Step 3: Resist the compulsions The first week was hard. Second week it became easy But after a few weeks, and especially after a few months, it became easier. Sometimes I even forgot I had OCD. But point is it’s just make me without fear to do activities , moving easy but not cure because for treatment ocd u need ERP : Acknowledge the thought: Let it exist in your mind without trying to push it away, analyze it, or judge yourself for having it. Cut the response: Avoid doing compulsions or seeking reassurance to fix the anxiety. Habituate: Sit with the discomfort until your brain naturally learns that the thought cannot harm you and the anxiety fades on its own So my this 3 step tips can’t treatment me from root but i it helped me Quarantine ocd 😩 Of course, sometimes I forgot about my deal and repeated something. When that happened, I reminded myself that it was not intentional, so I didn't count it. Sometimes my OCD thoughts felt very real. When that happened, I told myself: "It's not real. I didn't intentionally break my deal." The more I resisted my compulsions, and reduce my repeating ocd the more freedom I gained. Little by little, the chains of OCD became weaker. After about 6 months, I could ignore my compulsions much more easily. Now it has been 4 years. Yes, obsessive thoughts still come sometimes. But now I am much more active, and I don't worry as much about unwanted OCD thoughts. I can usually move on quickly by reminding myself: "I didn't intentionally break my !!deal!!, so my OCD is not real ." This is not medical advice. It is only my personal experience. Everyone's recovery is different. If my story helps even one person feel less alone, then sharing it was worth it. 🤗 Stay strong. Recovery is possible.
