Thank you both. This was enlightening and beneficial. Cheers.
Many thanks to Kristina for a great podcast. For anyone who is interested in learning more about the proposed treatment protocol discussed here for disgust-based contamination OCD, here is a link to a clinical article published in the Spring 2023 IOCDF Newsletter (see page 13): iocdf.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/2023-Spring-OCD-Newsletter.pdf
It's the first time I'm learning about disgust-based OCD. I believe I might have it partially, if not entirely, alongside my OCD.
By the way, the video is of great quality.
Glad this was educational.
21:23 I loved hearing the breakdown of "mastering". Sounds like a harm reductionist approach. Thank you both for this extremely informative conversation!
Well put - in fact, this approach was very much influenced by concepts from harm reduction. Here is a blog I wrote a while back about the use of harm reduction with OCD in general: anxietycamp.blogspot.com/2021/05/tofu-and-ocd-treatment-case-for-harm.html. Thank you very much for your kind words!
What about disgust based social contamination. As I have fear disgust in social situations and ERP doesn’t work it makes it worse. Exposures make disgust worse
