Has anyone who has managed to recover from OCD got any advice for those trying to get through it? :)

i aint diagnosed but im almost 100% recovered but i need that final diagnosis, however you could feel better by a couple of things. one is realizing that you’re thoughts arent real, its all anxiety based and they give you terror and it’s horrifying. by knowing that it’s horrifying plus the fact that you feel guilt with the thoughts too prove that you arent whatever you fear. 2- however its still anxiety and it will do anything to keep you scared no matter how illogical it may be. in cases where it seems like its all real, its just immense fear messing with you. the best thing to do is remain UNCERTAIN bc im sure that whatever you’re obsessing ab will make no sense at all when you get out of the feared zone. 3- apply everything you see on every health page on intrusive thoughts, move on with your normal life and try to do daily tasks, if you have an intrusive thought or a barrage of them just pull through them and dont engage with them at all. you could be scared with them but dont engage with them bc it will get you in a bigger hole. 4- if you have a therapist listen to them bc they know what theyre doing 5- find distractions to keep your brain busy so you dont obsess over them. obsessing over intrusive thougghts is pointless bc the feared story is never true. 6- join support groups if you could to pull through this
