Reassurance is like the opposite of ERP imo

Yep. Reassurance is a compulsion. Whether you give it to yourself or seek it from others. I've done both. It gives you very short lived relief from the anxiety but only makes things worse in the long run.

Yes it is but it’s the only way to get better! Is not seeking reassurance! It gets easier!

Reassurance seeking
If I stop seeking reassurance will the thoughts become less?

Is this a symptom of ocd?
When I reassure myself that I no I would never do that, I don’t believe it & when I’ve been using the same reassurance for a while it doesn’t work the same way as it use to?

Not reassurance seeking in the moment
I'm struggling. Not going to seek the reassurance I feel I NEED.
