How does your OCD hold you back?
I have learned here that it SCAMS me out of HOURS of my day, weeks, years!!! It prevents me from being as happy as I can be in life and I want Change! I am creating change! Thank you
It keeps me from doing things I need & want to do. Its a struggle every day.
Makes me compare looks and body's and ruminate. Because of that it's hard to enjoy time with my partner
It makes me spend hours ruminating and obsessing that I’ve done something wrong.
I ruminate every day and it prevents me from playing my video games.
Just 3 months ago I was having daily panic attacks just going to lunch with my work mates. Today I will have my first date after a long time. I'm so happy I slowly get my life back even though it still feels like a rollercoaster most of the days.
Woahhhh! Way to go. Good luck on your date tonight! What a great example of someone living their life!
Let's go that's amazing news :)
Hey, I want to know how you managed to cope with your panic attack. I had a panic attack in the office and the fear of having another one is just holding me back and not letting me go back there. Should I go or should I not. My brain is just ....
Nice :)
@@lamiahussain5412 my panic attacks at work stopped when I started treatment. It might be the interoceptive exposures that helped with panic most (I’m not sure though because I also did in vivo and imaginal exposures at the same time). I suggest you Google it and try interoceptive exposures yourself.
Thank you for all you do!! You're helping me with my worst OCD moments.
Let's all agree that NOT even the meanest most malicious people on the planet deserve to suffer with OCD!
I agree.
You just gotta learn how to be chill even when you think the world is ending
I'm glad this guy is here on UA-cam. I am much better from OCD since June 2021. Your thoughts fears worries are imagination. It's not reality. Move forward towards your happiness
2 months late but thank you
Brilliant, thanks Nate! OCD is kind of like a bad habit that needs to go.
Thank you for your kind words! It means a lot to me that my content is making a positive impact.
I get a repetive thoughts about my relatives coming into my university and ruining my career , whenever I get a though about any of my relative my mind automatically starts playing videos and images of my relatives coming into my university, this thoughts makes me so anxious 😟 please anybody help me 🙏 please reply
i really like that you joke around in your videos, it makes the topics feel more light-hearted yet informative & helpful, and allows me and hopefully many more to laugh at our brains! thank you
He inspires my hope that I will overcome these horrible intrusive thoughts and anxiety. He seems like such a great guy. He is the only therapist on UA-cam that I watch.
Thanks so much for your support! You made my day! I hope you’re doing well!
Ocd has ruined my life and Im determined to get better. Just found your channel and it is SOOO helpful for ocd. Thank you a million!!! I will be a huge supporter of your channel!
I was having a pretty good day when my anxiety about my intrusive thoughts started to bring me a lot of anxiety. Recently, using UA-cam videos and podcasts about anxiety and OCD have been my compulsion to make me feel better about my condition, but I made it pretty far in the day until I watched one. This was the first one, and I gotta be strong and help myself
The same happens to me. I need to see these videos to calm down my anxiety and intrusive thoughts.
Me to bro just with lil bit of ptsd
Nate is the ultimate analogy master. 😄
I feel like I have analogy glasses on and am looking for ways to connect OCD to anything. 😉
literally 😂😂
@@ocdandanxietynate I get intrusive thoughts that my family relatives will come to my college this thought makes me so much anxious and worried 😟 please help me . I always pray to got that please keep my family and relatives away from my university then I get some relief
I've always had OCD. It's like it was built into me as a default setting. I don't remember ever being without it. My very first memories are of me performing compulsions at 5 years old, crying and not understanding why I couldn't stop. So... I have a wealth of experience in this field. :)
Your videos are everything I need. They're just incredible. I'm in a "safe space" because I've been taking medications for a long time. However, I started feeling my safe wall being penetrated by the exacerbation of OCD, and I was slowly but surely going back to square one. But the information that you provide is unearthly. Man, I can't express how much you make my life better and better. Personally, it's so much easier for me to prevent physical compulsions. I would say at this point I don't have any because it was relatively easy to let them go. It's the mental compulsions that are MUCH HARDER for me to deal with. And boy oh boy, they've been ruining my life since I can remember myself. I do as you say (not without exceptions when OCD takes over, but still) and I just... feel unbothered by the thoughts? I let them be, I don't click on the ad. Sometimes I just agree with them because it's too much. But I know for sure that just a few years ago these exact thoughts would have eaten me alive and I would have ended up at the mental hospital again. Thank you.
Hi Nate, my name is Pastor Roy Robbins. I live in Chino California. My main obsession is Scrupulosity. I’ve been working with a clinician specializing in OCD now for about six months and I have made some good progress. I love your videos. They keep me grounded and doing the deed every day. Thank you so much.
Who do you see? I struggle with the same thing.
Here in the old world, those bicycle supplements are called "stabilisers"-- which is apt for your analogy.
i appreciate you so much Nate! thank you for doing what you're doing. Lots of greetings from a girl from Denmark who finally started in therapy🇩🇰
Thank you for being a voice for this. I’ve been struggling with OCD for months and you’re helping me take my life back. I appreciate what you do
I am struggling with unspeakable harm OCD and THAT'S WILD because I'm a super great mom and advocate for children. I've been struggling for around 9 months and I have mostly gotten the hang of it and it's like the worst compliment ever because if I were not such a bright, shining soul I know I wouldn't be struggling this way. 😭 but it's still so awful. I'm going to get better though.. I'm going to beat this. Thanks, Nathan for your videos.
How are you now?
@@imsolubly6732
your channel is helping me so much right now. i just learned i have OCD and i am so relieved to know what exactly is wrong with me and that there are techniques to soothe it. it makes me feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel. THANK YOU!!
The goat of ocd recovery. Back with a new video. Lets gooooo.
Amazing video as always! Thanks so much for all you do Nate! 😃💖
Your videos are awesome! Sensorimotor OCD here!
Nate, can you please do a video on an ocd theme that’s not talked about enough, which is the fear of psychosis OCD and how it can warp your thoughts, and some of the compulsions like constant mental checking for delusional thoughts and whether you truly believe them or not etc.. Please 🙏
Just say to yourself yep I’m going crazy Im super excited, do the opposite of OCD. I had this bit a little bit and went away into another theme which I have recently recovered from.
He has a video about that already.
Search "am i going crazy Nate ocd"
Suffered with it as long as I can remember. Horror of a thing but there is hope, like this Channel a lot
I lovee life with its ups and downs❤️❤️Don’t give up guyss❣️We are the masterminds of our lives we got this❣️
Every thing was going well but when one morning i decide to expose myself to the place where i had my first panic attack it feels like im back to that old anxiety mode
Will you do a video particularly about ROCD exposure and prevention?
Hey Nate, thanks for the great video. I’m a Lutheran Pastor in Chino, California who struggles with OCD and scrupolosity. I learned severe videos from my therapist Diane Tiberg, and I really enjoy watching you.
The thoughts get me down and make me live in fear I have several themes👍
This video was amazing. Please keep doing what youre doing.
Please recommend some books to read to fight ocd !! You are saving lives everyday thanks !!
The Compulsive Reassurance Seeking Workbook is a new one that I wrote the "foreward".
Freedom from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is one of my favorites.
Thank you for uploading these videos. Your advice is direct, clear and always kind and full of humor. It makes OCD a much less scary thing to overcome.
Well, your video(s) are/have helped me! Thank you!
Thank you so much using the bicycle example. My daughter has anxiety and phobia with so many things…now arfid and ocd. I’m literally taking the training wheels off.
Really appreciate the vids man. The first really threatening OCD thoughts I had involved acts of self h@rm. I was in a really big rut for about 3 months until I actually found out that I have OCD. I started doing CBT and ERP through a counselor along with your channel. It has gotten way better, and all I have to say is maybe OCD will win, maybe not.
These videos are so helpful. 🙏
Thank you Thank you!
I get a repetive thoughts about my relatives coming into my university and ruining my career , whenever I get a though about any of my relative my mind automatically starts playing videos and images of my relatives coming into my university, this thoughts makes me so anxious 😟 please anybody help me 🙏 please reply
This might sound mean but I think it’s great. A long story…
I’ve been a little ‘on the mend’. Meaning the rumination hasn’t been bad and the feelings of doom have been quiet.
This morning I was hit hard by it. Horrible knot in the back of my neck with the feeling that I was going to hurt anyone I see.
On the drive to work I nearly ran over a puppy. I stopped to make sure I didn’t hit it, otherwise I’d be ruminating on it all day. Got back in my vehicle only to have another dog playfully run in front of my vehicle. Stressed I yelled at the thing. It spooked it enough to get out of the way.
I heard the momma dog (not a small dog) start barking after that. I thought ‘great now she’s going to start chasing my vehicle every time she sees it now)
Even more stressed I decided to listen to an OCD and Anxiety video to see if I can pick up something to help with this feeling of doom.
I came to this video and for the most part it was background noise to what was going on in my head.
Then at the end of the video there was that song. I heard it and thought ‘that’s a terrible song!’😂
Snapped me right out of that doom phase and I’ve had a good morning since.
you dont know how many people you are helping buddy
ERP is the best treatment and it works people ! Keep doing it and you get better and will recover! I had harm OCD.
FOR REAL MAN?
would you recommend it also for HOCD?
@@ApexFlex-pn8wq yes please do erp but with a professional therapist or do the master your ocd course. You can do it and most likely you find the fear won’t happen. Good luck.
I get intrusive thought that my relatives will come to my university this thing makes me so much anxious what should I do
I currently suffer from Harm OCD, how did you overcome it ?? I have Pure O tho , i typically think im evil or such things
Thanks man, been diagnosed for a few yrs now but realizing I’m not sure how to recognize it much less how to combat it
I’m here. Watching while waiting for my eCBT therapist to be assigned.
You are an inspiration Nate. Even after years of practice and bunch of good information, I find myself learning new ways with your videos. Thank you for what you've done for this community, truly appreciated. I guess I can speak for everyone who has visited your channel so far, or should I say maybe maybe not. :)
Thank you for making these videos. They always give me some extra motivation to stay steady in my ERP therapy when I need it most. The work you do is awesome.
You are the Best!!!! Keep doing your videos, they are great❤
Thank you so much for your time and support.......best wishes from Liverpool 🇬🇧💖🇬🇧💖
Always the best help and content!!
Self conscious all the time, noticing everything I do, start to talk and say words in wrong order, and makes ocd worse and I get more self conscious and sad
Hello, I really like your videos. My 11 year old daughter has developed a contamination OCD, we started the ERP, but now, she can't say what scares her, she knows the anxiety is going up, but doesn't know why. How common is this? Thanks again for your videos, you're doing an amazing job.
I have this problem where I’ve compared my gf to a particular individual that I find unattractive because they have a similar nose/hair. Now I see their face in hers when I look at her and it brings me a lot of anxiety.
I get the typical thoughts of “what if I can never unsee this” “what if I can’t get passed it”
I know I just need to accept and lean into it but the anxiety it gives me is a scary one. A little more personal than some of my other themes it feels
Thanks for the videos
Iam so happy to find this channel
Another awesome video Nate. I love your approach and style. Thank you so much.
Thank you, I’m going to take the risk but know I will be taking control.
im a strong follower u have helped alot
Yess❤
Can you please help me with hair picking.??
Please it will be huge on me nate🥺🥺.
You see it's hard to study when you have this types of urges while studying and it's get really embarrassing when you're studying in public places.:((
I'm trying to overcome it with the help of you're previous videos but it's really hard 😢.
Please suggest something,it will be a life saviour!!!!
Anxiety is totally destroying my life i literally feel sick and dizzy everyday,even the smallest tasks are too big for me to handle 😢
I know how you feel, I am a retired carpenter and am afraid to do the easiest chore,66 years old and scared every day, but I will get better. My father told me to "learn to laugh at yourself and let yourself off the hook, " it helps
@@StephenMacInnis thank u so much I'll try that may God bless u🙏
Thank you for your video. It has help me with my sleep and my swallowing
Hey man! Love the videos and have been watching for years now. Can you please touch on false memory/cheating ocd?
I needed this
This is so actuate. It really works.
I love your videos , they’re so helpful . God bless your soul brother
Thank you so much! I was wondering if you could do a video on certain foods or things that heighten ocd/anxiety. I find when I have caffine my ocd flares up, or if I'm eating poorly
Your a hero man
I never thought of OCD related to positive outcomes like the viral video example.
Thanks for your comments! I hope you're doing well!
This reminds me of something my wife was talking about to me the other day. I think it’s called Ominous Positivity or something. Basically, it’s “good things will happen to you and there’s nothing you can do about it.” “Good luck and fortune will curse your life”
my goat 😤😤😤
Maybe this video will help me , maybe it won’t! Thanks for the video 😊
We call them stabilisers in the UK. I think that works even more with them being compulsions
Ohhh interesting. I love all the different words and changes between countries.
@@ocdandanxietyI get a repetive thoughts about my relatives coming into my university and ruining my career , whenever I get a though about any of my relative my mind automatically starts playing videos and images of my relatives coming into my university, this thoughts makes me so anxious 😟 please anybody help me 🙏 please reply
soooo informative thankyou sooo much 😊
You’re an amazing help in my life❤ thank you🥰🥰🥰
The only part I disagree with is, but there’s nothing wrong with washing your hands a lot. As long as you don’t make your hands start bleeding frequent handwashing is fine.
What about being obsessed with past sins as Christians? Is the help with that? Analyzing them over and over, ruminating etc.
I worked in hospitals many years, after covid I became very germophobic and I may had developed ocd.
Unfortunately I was not able to get help due to the huge shortage of staff and over time it made it worse. kaiser employees were on strike they couldn't attend me I had to wait 1 month to get an appointment, and when I was close to my appointment dates they canceled on me because of the staff and covid shortage.
I also tried getting help outside kaiser but unfortunately, by the time I was able to get help I had felt in a very deep depression and became an alcoholic and I lost my job
It's been almost 3 years and I'm still not the same, not the same in a way that even although I'm no longer working in those situations I still struggle with my daily life tasks.
I never was able to figure out if I just had a stress disorder, ocd or ptsd
Yk i have really bad mental compulsions and im 16… im obsessed with comparing myself to others and feeling like im not enough and feeling bad about myself and whenever literally smth really minor has to happen to just trigger these obsessions of feeling horrible about myself.. and i start comparing myself and get anxious becoz i don’t wanna feel like this.. and nothing seems to help and that monster inside my head knows that im doing the right thing rn to overcome this so it stops me by pulling me into intense rumination… it gets so bad😩 and literally any behaviour of mine can trigger those obsessions of feeling bad .. like even writing my true feelings here in this comment would make me feel horrible about myself like why can’t i be strong this n that.. i just expect things to be absolutely out of this world perfect!! So bad!
Search for Dr. Greenberg articles online. He has good technique for working against rumination (RF-ERP). Also do loop tape with your worst fears and play it while you’re busy.
Love your videos! Thank you for all you do!
I have ocd without physical compulsions, the mental compulsions are ruminating, i think? I hope to do your workshop but id like to ask you some questions first!
😂But I Doooooontttt Like It 😋

Is Exposure and response prevention effective with Generalized anxiety disorder.
Or there are other options that can help.
I'm really struggling to apply this while working in healthcare. My fear of bloodborne pathogens has ramped through the roof. I work in dental offices and there is often aerosolize, and while I trust my PPE. It's the coming home part and not tracking anything it.
What about when you have mental obsessions and compulsions? For example if you have rumination has a compulsion does that mean you resist the urge to ruminate? Or if you pray right after your obsession you resist the urge to pray?
I miss you more than you ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever does this sound like ocd?
Your videos help me so much 💕
I constantly ruminate about if im gonna develope scitzophrenia, personality disorder, if im manic, or gonna go crazy, my grandpa is also in psycosis cause he has ptsd from war and im afraid its gonna happen to me, anyway you can make a video about this?
Feel the same, wondering what I will say next, like I am waiting to see what I say, lots of stress in my life, wife has cancer, I have osteoarthritis and neck injury, I have adhd also. Afraid to say anything because I think I will say wrong word or something
@@StephenMacInnis I'm alot better now you just gotta risk it and if something happens than it happens focus on your symptoms just recognize the thought and say yea maybe maybe not and trust yourself, I also have adhd lol
@@StephenMacInnis it's alot easier when you find something to work towards while recovering in my experience, hope everything goes good for you♥️
One argument my compulsion goves when i dont do it, is that" see u avoided me that day, i came back, one day u have to do", which is uncomfortable.
love this video
I have a confidence now
You teach us so much ❤
Hey Nathan, is it possible that watching the videos are actually a compulsion? I struggle with constant problem solving for my own anxiety and now fear that reviewing the videos is one of my compulsions. Thank you so much for your videos and all that you are doing to help!
Not an expert but if you're doing it to get relief, it might be a compulsion and it might be smart to treat it as such :) but even smarter to find a good therapist and ask them about it!
❤ thanks for this video
Thank You so much
Thank you. You are wonderful.
My training wheels are lustful magical thinking and sinism...coupled with rocd. I've come to realize I don't know what or who I really am. I like a lot of stuff and I don't like a lot of stuff. Some times I don't like the things I like. Hard to find help too
Hello,there's hope for you.I suggest you to read the book "How to stubbornly refuse to make yourself miserable about anything,yes anything" by Albert Ellis.Hit me up for more
I have pure O ocd tells me I am schizophrenic or something is wrong, that my medication for ocd is making me worse, that I’m going to hurt myself and check the time to see if iv got through the day. Iv had everytype. Apparently I’m complex because mine changes thoughts all the time so great having this illness iv been in theropy since I was 12 😣
Agoraphobic? PTSD Major Depressive Disorder to name a few ... I think your videos are helpful I struggle daily but I keep trying
Nate mine is about my health I have bad physical symptoms from panic and I ruminate and sit scared all day….been to the ER 5 times in the last two months. Just go for it right just do my daily life….
LOVE YOU 🙏🏻
Ive been going through postpartum depression and anxiety and your videos have done a lot for me thank you so much!!!
I have moral scrupulousity (without religion) and it is the worst thing I've ever gone through. I could not stop doing the compulsion of confessing to my family. It got so bad that I went to stay with my brother for 6 weeks. I've gotten quite a bit better, but I'm scared to go home and be around the people I used to confess to because my ocd has made them a trigger, and I hate that it's done that. I return home in one week. Do you have any suggestions for when I'm overwhelmed by old triggers. My compulsions were so intense I felt out of control.
Hello!
Read the book :
"How to stubbornly refuse to make yourself miserable about anything,yes anything" by Albert Ellis.Hit me up for more
Hi Nathan, is your treatment course tailored to each person or is it a general type of treatment. I feel like i need personal guidance to help me learn how to stop partaking in mental checking of my body. It seems like sensorimotor ocd with regard to eating / swallowing. I dont know how to disengage with the internal checker while eating. Had this 5 years now. I have loads of books and have been to therapy but haven't done erp yet. I find it hard to know how to apply these teachings to myself.
It’s designed to help with all themes of OCD because we aren’t really treating OCD themes. We’re treating the OCD. I do have special videos for different themes though.
@@ocdandanxietyI get a repetive thoughts about my relatives coming into my university and ruining my career , whenever I get a though about any of my relative my mind automatically starts playing videos and images of my relatives coming into my university, this thoughts makes me so anxious 😟 please anybody help me 🙏 please reply
Also, I feel like I have ADHD coupled with GAD, which sometimes brings in severe OCD. How can I manage all those together?
❤ you are awesome!
Do I have to do it everyday even when I get better and I'm not suffering as much?
Inspiring ❤
Mine is the fear of anxiety. I have anxiety about anxiety.
