Please help. Does anyone have experience of the following (don't think it's a trigger)? Worrying about getting an OCD thought? The other day I was reminded about an OCD thought which I had already basically forgotten about for literally years (I was not actively worrying about it at all). I thought a very specific thought that made me remember how I worried about it before. I immediately panicked that I would get this thought again and I would start ruminating, so I did some ERP just in case. When I think about the actual thought, I'm not really worried at all, it's just like 'ok yeah that might happen, yeah ok'. But then I keep thinking 'ok I hope I don't start getting all worried like I was about that before' and worrying. So meta I know lol.

Yeah it's so weird. Worrying about the thought complements it. I'm just trying to remember that if I worry about thinking that's ok, there's nothing I can really do about it. And if I worry about the thought itself then I don't care about that either. Weird one though. Glad it's not just me

Yeah I've been having the urge to 'make sure' the thought is resolved. But I'm not sure it's really related to the thought itself. I always worry about thoughts and being mindful just feels like I'm running away to the present. Also feels like when I think 'oh I'm just worrying', the other part of me says 'well that could just be you reassuring yourself and the thought is back' and then I do ERP on the OCD thought and I'm just like 'yeah I really don't care about this'. Sorry guess I need to vent it. I'll just try to accept it as you say. Had similar things before and they always go. Its just annoying cuz I know how ridiculous it is lol

@Jaedenw2 Thanks a lot , I'll keep trying to do the ERP and then maybe I'll remember why I have nothing to worry about if I do start worrying about the thought. So stupidly meta lol
