when I get groinal response it lasts for so long even when I want it to leave is that normal?

Is that all I really have to do? I feel horrible if I leave it go long for a long time

@Kendy228g Thank you so much😭 i will try to do that. I know I feed my ocd a lot but it just so hard to not react

@ShetheOvercomer Omg my brain hurts so much when this happens like I constantly have to question myself and it’s really hard to convince myself that this isn’t me. That this isn’t what I want but the feeling is so strong and my thoughts are so strong that I’ve slowly started to believe them. I got so confused today because I was relived that my Exposure and response theapy was over and then as soon as I lay down I start feeling weird and the groinal response was there. I felt horrible and calm at the same time. I was screaming in my head. Thank you so much for your kind words. I feel more at peace and I am so sorry to hear that you stayed awake for 5 days. I can’t go more than a few hours past my bedtime before feeling like shit and I haven’t been sleeping well theses past few days either.

@ShetheOvercomer Yeah I get headaches frequently. And thank you! I will!
