I would love to have a group of 4-5 people who are committed to trying this out consistently. Basically I’m envisioning that we’d all maybe message like, affirmations in the morning, then share our time tracking every three hours and maybe trouble shoot if necessary. About me: 28F, teacher, relationship OCD, have had OCD for about 4 years.

I heard about through her podcast OCD Recovery—basically the idea is that recovery work is happening from the moment you’re awake to the moment you’re asleep, so you can be more accountable to yourself by tracking how much time you ruminate and compulse. Here’s an episode that explains the basics! If you go to the podcast, there’s an episode near the top called “Your OCD Recovery Blueprint” that explains everything better than I can!

Oh that sounds really interesting! I’d be up for being an accountability buddy haha, I’ve been really bad at keeping up with erp and doing compulsions recently :(

@MelodyMoo Same, I was trying this a few weeks ago and it was going REALLY well, but I kind of fell off the wagon. I think having a little support group could be super helpful for this kind of thing 😊 Feel free to email me at this burner address and we can talk about maybe setting up a thing! OCDsux2021@gmail.com

I'd love to be part of this. But I definitely can't check in every three hours. I could do once a day. What that be okay? 🤔

Absolutely! We could do what works for people—maybe an every three hour check in for folks interested in that, but only one official Everyone Checks In time. Email me if that sounds doable!

@Fern_Wilbur I've listened to that podcast episode you described. I don't think this is for me. But I'd love to know how this goes for you. So if you wanted to post an update on here, that would be cool :)
