@shallelujah: While these are jokes about my OCD I want to offer some genuine thoughts but please know I am not a therapist and you should speak to a professional for actual help/advice: From my experience doing Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) helps out a lot and learning that scary thoughts aren’t actually indicative of what you actually want and the reason they stick in your mind is that they are powered by fear and dislike of the thought/idea itself and you can learn to ease that fear by realizing, it’s not something you actually want and if they pop up in your mind to accept them as “just a passing thought, that doesn’t mean anything about you or your values” and let go which calms the looping of the thoughts and if you’re like me you’ll learn you can be happy and at peace <3 Also I am not very reactive to triggers anymore even if I’m still learning to be better everyday <3
