Thank you for this post! Seeing this first thing in morning before I go to school! Wish I could say it’s easy though. Easier to say then to do!

Your life in general :) You decide what makes you happy, and if we can let go of the "maybe people think that..." "what would people think if... " etc. we'd all be a lot happier! 💚

@washie This is very true. I never asked for this hocd to happen if it is that. This came out of nowhere at the age of 22

@washie I know! I think we all feel that way. It doesn't define who you are as a person! Whether you get ocd or you get allergies, it's out of your control. What we can to is recognizing that they're only thoughts that don't mean anything, and to not let them control our lives. :)

I’ve noticed that I’m somewhat happier also ignoring my thoughts than I am instead of doing compulsions (I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired atp) but I’ve heard you’re technically supposed to do erp rather than pushing under the rug. But idk if I have a thought I just refuse to think about it again and im fine even if I want to do compulsions

I want to beat OCD because I have seen and felt the benefits of clearing my brain from unnecessary, pointless, thoughts. OCD is like 0 calorie food. It’s pointless. No nutrition or benefits come from my obsessions or compulsions. I don’t care to have answers to everything anymore. I catch myself just trying to stress myself out so that I have some worry to feed on. But like I said, it’s a 0 calorie food. I get nothing from it but wasted time and energy. My brain feels more spacious when I’m not consumed by OCD. I’m present. My personality has room to be herself without making space for bullshit. I tell myself now that worry is poison. I think Willie Nelson was the person I got that quote from? Anyways, that imagery of worries being poison for the mind has been transformative for me. I’m evolving. 💖 Thanks NOCD community.
