The thing about OCD that really tricks me, is that I thought you need to have intrusive thoughts or compulsions ALL the time and that they would never go away, but now I am realizing that is NOT the case. I can two ish weeks without intrusive thoughts but I still have ocd. Reading about it sometimes online it makes it seems otherwise. Does anyone else relate?

Yes absolutely! My symptoms subside all the time but that doesn’t mean the condition it gone

Wow so happy to hear you are getting some time away from the thoughts, that is so wonderful. This is totally normal, and like what we all hope for. 

All of your comments are so nice to hear. Hope you all reach your goals! You got this!
