Lately I’ve been trying to use a humor tactic. I’ve given my intrusive thoughts the persona of a gossipy neighbor. When the thoughts pop up, I think to myself “oh lawd, there she goes again. Yep, just keep it coming.” It disarms the scariness of the thought.

@KRC36 You can also respond like “cool story, bro” and just keep moving on. Humor goes a long way. Lol

When an intrusive thought comes I can’t just say “that’s not true” and just move on. I always feel like I have to disprove the thought and be able to say it with confidence but the problem is that the ocd doesn’t allow me to feel and say it with confidence so I get stuck for hours or even days. How can I stop feeling like I need to do this?

I’m having a big OCD relapse and would like to hear anyone’s tips on how to be present and healthily deal with these intrusive thoughts and the “need” to preform compulsions. Thank you!!

So maybe the title wasn't the best to to put it but when you guys start having obsessive thoughts how do you stop them before it turns into compulsions and anxiety?
