@therapistinrecovery: If you’re ready to get better, I highly recommend taking a good look at the information you are ingesting even when you don’t know it! Though the information we see on social media FEELS important, it’s really only important to your ocd. The less you know and the more uncertainty you accept around your ocd the BETTER for your healing. So please be intentional as often as possible about what you’re watching, clicking, even talking about!! OCD can jump in the drivers seat the moment you become complacent, at least in the early days of recovery so stay on guard. These magical devices see your OCD triggers as $ and only care about views not your healing! If you can’t eliminate social media, I get it, but at least work to create a new pattern of interacting with it ❤️ #ocdawareness #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #ocdtok #rocd #ocdproblems

I remember my therapist telling me “You don’t need this much advice from people who don’t know you personally” 🫠

I have health anxiety OCD. Specifically cancer. And my entire FYP is cancer patients. I had to add hashtag restrictions to remove most of them. Ugh.

i JUST figured out this year that i have actually been ruminating/reassurance seeking/checking as a way to “help” my anxiety LOL so I’ve been adjusting how I soothe/work through it…wouldn’t you know……excessively talking about it WASN’T HELPING but getting comfortable in uncertainty/exposing myself to uncertainty HAS HELPED 😂😅

I tell myself that watching those videos that trigger my ocd is giving me an exposure so I can’t look away or I’m avoiding the exposure. How do you strike a balance between avoiding content vs exposing yourself to it?

Robyn Judge :
This is why my husband has said that social media is evil. He’s hated all social media since it started. I have relationships OCD and my feed is ALL ABOUT cheating men. And I agree, it can cause an absolute spiral. I’m so aware that social media is a big issue but I totally feed into it.
