I don't understand ERP. How is it logical? I can sit with my hand in a toilet all day & I refuse to habituate to it. I don't even have contamination fears & that's nasty. Making a picture hanging on the wall crooked on purpose? Why? I prefer my pictures to hang straight. I wouldn't habituate to a crooked picture.... Lick the bottom of your tennis shoe? Ew. Not gonna habituate to that either. Curse God out with curse words? Don't care to do that & I'm not even religious. So, how does ERP work? I don't get it.

Could you please repost this in comment here. For some reason, it is not showing completely

Habituation means that something that caused you anxiety ceases to cause you anxiety because you get used to it. If you have contamination fears and feel contaminated by toilet seats and you touch a toilet seat for a long time, over and over, eventually touching a toilet won't make you feel gross. If you don't believe it will work then maybe you should try it out yourself instead of assuming it won't work.

Ok, but I don't even have contamination fears. However, if I go into a public bathroom, that's dirty & nasty & I touch that toilet seat with my bare hands, you can guarantee I'm going to wash my hands. The rational reality is that's gross. This is the problem with exposure. It logically makes no sense. I refuse for myself to think a dirty, public restroom is sparkly clean, healthy & free from being gross. Wtf.

Would you rather eat your food off a plate or the raw floor? Seriously, as a human being, which would you pick? I'd be the plate.

If you don't have contamination obsessions then you don't need to expose yourself to these things. I really don't understand what your point is. You only need to expose yourself to things that you have irrational and excessive fears of.
