So I'd like to talk about something: Right now I'm on a livestream on Ali Greymond's YouTube channel. As usual her videos are very informative and helpful. However, there's one thing that she talks about in most videos that are like a selling point to me: Tracking OCD and ruminating. For me as an OCD sufferer, I go through real event, sexual, POCD, harm, and perfectionism OCD. I constantly ruminate about false memories, events about my OCD, mistakes in my childhood, and mistakes in my teen years. All the time. All my friends are here to give me reassurance just for me to stop talking to them about this constant seeking. They tell me I shouldn't worry. They tell me my fears aren't true. They tell me I'm not my OCD. Someone on here even told me that since all my friends have told me that I shouldn't worry about the things I told them even if they can be bad things, then I just need to focus on my own recovery work so I can see that for myself. When it comes to Ali Greymond and her conversations about tracking, it's basically journaling your emotions, how much you've ruminated, treating this like a game, and jotting down how long and often you have a trigger, thought, or compulsion. I might as well give it a try. Anyone else reading this can try this as well. It wouldn't hurt. Definitely search for her if you haven't. Take a moment to join her livestream that's going on right now.
