There’s a quote by Rumi that goes, “Don’t turn away. Keep your gaze on the wounded place, for that is where the light enters you.” I really feel like having to deal with this OCD is a blessing in disguise. I have faced what I feel are some of the darkest human experiences and emotions, and somehow I’ve come out on the other side, and much stronger for it. Learning emotional regulation, completely re-learning how I speak to myself, changing my inner dialogue — it’s all because of OCD. So thanks, buddy. What was meant for evil was used for good.

Let everyone of the thoghts and feelings come in you are not afarain of it any more ! You are POWEFUL and ocd doesn’t define us ! If you look up ocd and anxiety on YouTube it shows an ocd therapist and I’ve learned so much from him:)❤️

One big one I’ve been implementing lately is WANT the anxiety! When it comes, instead of going “oh god here we go again” get fierce with it. Stand up to your OCD in your mind and let it know you want this uncertainty because feeling it and accepting it meant OCD can pack up its bags and hit the road

@AnonymousA Yes! The OCD does not know what to do with "I want the anxiety"
