This is making so much sense to me! For the first time in 15 years of living with OCD (and questioning that diagnosis because my real event OCD/harm OCD/POCD/ROCD/false memory OCD were never specified in the handbooks) I feel like I finally understand what's happening in my brain!
Thank you for this! I overcame hyperawareness OCD following these principles. I sort of stumbled across this mindset by accident on my own but it’s my saving grace through life ❤
Jade is one of my favorites to listen to. She makes it all so clear with examples and she gives hope about what the process may look like even for someone who can only find access to self help.
So very helpful!! I have found that unconditional self acceptance has made the anxiety lift and the result is that it helps to train my brain. It’s helping with understanding that my fear isn’t reality because there’s no anxiety attached to it anymore
I am consistently amazed and grateful for the content of this channel. I appreciate the counter-narrative regarding how acts can permanently define us, and I think it is something that other OCD channels don't really capture adequately. Yes, it is important to focus on exposure etc. However, it will always feel contrived until you appreciate the existential component that accompanies everyone.
Again, thank you Jade for the courage to speak on this really difficult topic. I am sure this will really help me with my personal recovery.
Thank you for this one Jade. This reminds me of a method Dr. David Hawkins talked about. Breaking down a fear by saying “and then what” to it. So like I’ll poison my family, and then what, and then they might die, and then what, and I’ll be all alone and maybe in prison, and then what, and so on. Eventually most fears lead to fear of death and you say, and then what to that too. Releasing more and more layers of fear. I’m paraphrasing but it was something like this.
Very useful information and testimony. I've recently listened to several worthwhile videos from you and your mates. Nice, forthcoming, and lived experience. Glad you are in recovery and thanks for sharing. Be well.
this was explained brilliantly! thank you so much.
Jade, your explanation sparked a shift inside of my mind even though I’m still confused and I’m still trying to wrap my head around this concept, but a lot of the things you’ve said were very comforting and hopeful and I thank you for giving me some light
Thank you very much for making this!
Thank you for making this video
This is beyond helpful, Thank you
excellent, very well put. i really liked the video!
Helpful to the core.Thanks for sharing the experience and tools of recovery
Well said! Your voice is so soothing ❤️ 👏 bravo!
Thank you so much. So helpful
Very helpful video. Thank you so much.
You are so brave - and such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story.
The judgmental labels we hear in response to peoples' behaviors or words (like it's their character) are difficult indeed. What does this person need when they harshly label? Safety, assurance, certainty? Why do they choose to write people off? Because it's painful to acknowledge the fear that comes from these events, so the response is to transform it into anger?
Very good explanation Jade. Thanks! On the front end of my recovery.
Very good VERY GOOD JADE !!!
Thank you ❤
I started watching these videos, they are so helpful thank you so much.
Growing up Christian it was normal to do all these compulsive behaviors to avoid hell. Im still terrified of going to hell and its really silly since I've left that belief system in order to recover and I realize how paranoid that way of living is.
Super helpful, thank you.
Very useful and explained so brilliantly..👍👍👍🥂
So great, thank you. I have this exact fear pf going to prison so helps alot
Thanks for this video it makes me realise that the regrets and mistakes I've made were down to poor mental health, and i can try and accept myself, now and can use this for other themes that ocd has latched to cheers
You really provide amazing information
Grateful for the Sharing..
Thank you so much.
Makes sense very helpful
Very well said
Thank you so much ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Excellent ty
omg I watch the whole season of friends 5 times. It was the best distraction
I understand what you're saying but i struggle to feel compassion for child rapists, that's a real tough one!
Never heard the saying controlled in a box before. Yet i understand what it means somehow.
This is so hard for me right now but working on it. I want to recover
So great video ?
How about harm ocd do you have session ?
Can't b explained much better
There has to be a reason why people with OCD likes friends so much.
It has been really triggering for me to apply that concept, I am affected by lots of type of OCD's and recently I have been really affected by the pocd theme and it has been very hard it feels so damn real it's crazy. But I have learned to rather listen to the body's response to the thought and just watch and observe. I know deep down that im not that, but you keep saying that if my ocd fear happened it "wouldnt be the end of the world" but it would clearly be. I could not live with myself if it ever happened, id rather end my life than do harm. So I was interested on how do you apply that deep acceptance with that particular theme i am really confused.
Please answer if possible.
Can Unconditional acceptance be applied on sexual thoughts related to mother or sister ?
I mean as Rob says 1 in a billion chance if it'll happen I'll face it whatever happen. Isn't that not okay to accept that even in 1 in a billion chance in this case ?
Unconditional self acceptance means exactly what it says on the tin, unconditionally!
I have excruciating ROCD with panic attacks. My last relationship I stuck out even with brutal ROCD. I can honestly say ROCD did not lead me to decide to end the relationship it was merely because we had different values.
However I am terrified of a next relationship where ROCD rears its ugly head again.
Mines the normal I will be trapped with this girl the rest of my life I can't commit because I find other woms attractive and i will be bored with her and want to leave but she loves me and I'm a bad person I should be ashamed. I only want sex and an not interested in her really. Ect
The I only want sex thought is making me ashamed I feel there is a small bit of truth to it because I get socially anxious with potential romantic partners and use sex as a compulsion to alleviate the anxiety like a drug.
I really don't care anymore if I am just a sex addict. I know I'm not it's my ocd brain amplifying it but the shame and need for certainty, trying to fix the thought and the mind of a sex addict is overwhelming.
I honestly just don't give a shit anymore if my mind shames me when I'm with a girl saying "she will find out you are using her for sex and don't care about her and are just manipulating her for sex and don't care about spending time with her or don't love her or will cheat and all those shite thoughts
Unconditional self acceptance - yeh maybe I am a sex addict and a narcissist and a bad person and should be ashamed of using and manipulating the girl I'm with maybe I will have karma. - but I'm still a good person
We have a ROCD webinar coming up if you are interested 📧 phil@ocdrecovery.com
