@leokatiecbt: Many people spend over a decade struggling in silence simply because their symptoms do not match the stereotypical media portrayals of OCD. When obsessions revolve around somatic body hyper-awareness, health catastrophes, moral scrupulosity, or violent intrusive thoughts, it is common to believe you are simply anxious, eccentric, or broken The cruelty of OCD lies in the fact that it actively targets what you cherish most: your physical well-being, your spiritual convictions, and the safety of the people you love. Recognizing that ego-dystonic thoughts are standard clinical manifestations of specific OCD subtypes removes the isolating shame, paving the way for proper exposure and response prevention (ERP). #ocdsubtypes #ocdawareness #pureo #scrupulosity #harmocd
