@leokatiecbt: You can look calm while your mind keeps reviewing the same distressing thought. Rumination can involve replaying scenarios, analyzing what a thought means or trying to reach certainty. That mental effort can take up time and leave you exhausted. OCD goes beyond a preference for cleanliness or organization. Its compulsions can be invisible, and its distress deserves to be taken seriously. If you recognize this pattern, an OCD-informed professional can help you explore treatment, including ERP. #OCD #Rumination #MentalCompulsions #OCDAwareness #OCDRecovery
