      Yes I can relate. I think it’s helpful to engage in an activity you enjoy, weather it be listening to music, talking to someone, writing about it or going for a walk. Allow the feeling to be there and know that it will pass. You are so much stronger than you think.

      Bro that is literally how it is for me after my OCD spikes, in one of my classes they mentioned that OCD might be correlated with high serotonin and i always wondered if the serotonin decrease (or decrease in OCD sympotoms) increased depression due to depression being cooralted with low serotonin :00

      Yeah dude It takes me a month to read a book. I used not to read at all. I re read until I get satisfaction
      I say I read so slow because every book I read at least 3 times in a row, just because I rereadb almost every other sentence. Even in nature when I hike I control everything I look at until I've looked deeply enough. Did I see everything. Did I miss details in the tree bark, did I look close enough. I missed something look again.
      Or I didn't truly read that sentence. I didn't mentally imagine it I just glossed over it.
      Like for normal people this could happen occasionally and could be good reminder so they can deepen their awareness. But for us OCD people it's literally CONSTANT. it's not helpful it's neurotic.
      Alan Watts talked about how the ego tries to control the senses so that people strain their eyes to see or tighten the muscles in their head to hear better or hold their breath to read deeper and it's utterly futile. it doesn't help you see or hear or read better. Still i do this all the time. I breathe shallow and strain my muscles. Did I truly appreciate that cloud. Did I truly capture those words. Let me go back. Is that ocd? YES

I am always guaranteed to learn something new about myself (and OCD) anytime you post something. I’m really grateful for this channel. I think I’ve decided I will definitely be taking your course. I just love the way you explain things. It really clarifies some aspects of OCD that I didn’t fully grasp before and I suspect your course will be the same. Thank you for all you do!

    Hey Nathan! I feel like I actually don't do any compulsion when I have these unwanted thoughts. For the last week I've trained myself to say "sure" and "maybe maybe not" to these thoughts but they keep coming back and stop me from enjoying things. Like today I saw a movie and the entire time these thoughts ran in my head and I kept saying maybe maybe not in my brain. How do I stop these thoughts from not ruining the things I enjoy. Also I feel like there aren't any compulsions in my case. I just get a thought then some relief then the thought is back. I don't do any reassurance seeking or any compulsive behaviors. All I do is invite the thoughts. Your help would be appreciated

    Hello, I’m not diagnosed OCD but I believe I may have it. I do have a question though, for a while I have been struggling with intrusive thoughts, and I still get anxiety over it, but at the same time I feel numb? Distant? Blocked? I’m not sure, I feel like I really am this terrible person because I don’t feel that same amount of anxiety I had before. And then I start asking myself “what if I really am this person and want to do these things?” But I know I don’t deep down, I’m just scared of being a bad person when there is in fact no evidence to support it.
    Idk, it’s just something I thought to ask you! Thank you!

    Do you know what is difficult and how to deal with it? When compulsion is at the same time what you should perform. Is there a prescription for this? That is, for example, once a month every guy should do some self-examination of his body. In my case it's a compulsion and sometimes I do it several times a week. In this situation, even if I restrain myself, once a month I still have to succumb to it.

Actually I think I picked the wrong one (I'm studying psychology but littérature sounds more right)so I wonder, is it OCD? As I tend to compulsively look for content on the net about the subject and psychology or is the anxiety the response of a bad choice? Or both
