    I decided to go back to school after year's of crontic OCD and anxiety where I thought that I wasn't able to absorb all the information I get during the classes, getting into stoicism helped me to get over the fears of looking stupid infront of my classmates, not having enough time for the gym or simply wasting too much time if I fail the exams and having to do it again the next year. If I fail I will just be where I'm at right now and I'm OK with that, I don't need to proof anything to anyone be getting a degree even if that means that I have to drive a forklift for the rest of my life.

    Great points about not forcing concentration, and not multi tasking.

    Sorry if this question isn’t really related to the topic of the video, but I often get this strong urge to think of or imagine bothersome/graphic thoughts . Although it feels very automatic, most people have told me acting upon this urge is a compulsion. Do you agree with this? And is it related to the automatic rumination you’ve discussed before ?

    • @OCDrecoveryNick
      @OCDrecoveryNick 10 днів тому

      Hey Arwarorooo - Absolutely, it can certainly be automatic if the belief behind it is 'if I lose control and continually think of these thoughts (and act on them) this is absolutely horrible' it usually continues.

  • @mnicp95
    @mnicp95 15 днів тому +2

    Would reminding yourself of your beliefs just a few times a day still be compulsive?

    • @OCDrecoveryNick
      @OCDrecoveryNick 15 днів тому +2

      Nope! I think in the beginning it's going to happen anyway but the further you move along the journey the less likely it's needed, terrific question.

      Okay. Good. Cos I've done it like 10 times today. Which is annoying but at the same time they were all consistent and they're getting shorter 😅
