    Much love to all of us suffering with intrusive thoughts. These monsters will NOT define us!

    So much of this is simply listening. People feel heard and get better.

    This was informative and helpful. Thank all of you for doing such necessary awesome mental health work. Will definitely look into ACT. I relate to the concept and practice.

    the pandemic allowed me to differentiate between a real threat vs a perceived threat; it actually helped me to cope better...

    Beautiful insight by Ethan @ 40:05 about the subtle narcissism that can accompany the overwhelming feelings of anxiety surrounding OCD. The duality of self infatuation alongside self persecution makes it hard to address the core of the disorder without just making yourself out as a villain. Its hard to gain stable footing for personal mental health growth while you keep pivoting between the two.

    I have had thoughts also about going to the bathroom. Thank you Jason for discussing the intrusive thoughts about going to the bathroom. I thought I was the only one and was weird.

    I'm so glad other people suffer through this...I thought it was the worst thing ever until I became clinically depressed where I was not able to work ... ocd was not even on the radar because I had bigger fish to fry like just getting through the day while every second of every day totally sucked.. I got better thank god or whomever and now I have my ocd left and honestly I'm almost glad I had that depression because I know there are worse things than ocd and I never did before

      But I have to admit my ocd is back full force so now I'm dealing with it

      I really wanted this to be interesting , To me it was more like describing acts of violence by getting into detail about them. Most people coming here have. an idea about that what their thoughts are, and don't need to hear a description of thoughts of violence. Maybe because there were four people heading the panel that I found it distracting, and that it came across as not well presented. Thank you all for your time, I am going to name drop and say that considering the name of this video, and I thought it may be informative., I think I will spend time watching "therapy. In a nutshell' .

    @International OCD Foundation Will you read the comments and respond as much as possible?

    I was very obsessive about the rules surrounding COVID, until I got COVID and was sick for weeks!
    After I got it I said screw it and threw the damn rules out the window.
    Yes, I still wash my hands and sanitize and try not to stand too close to others and breathe all over them **shiver** but, I also realized that all the precautions that were forced onto us were mostly ineffective and merely hopeful precautionary ideals that *may* help.
    Because of this realization and the exposure I went through, my anxiety and fear of sickness and death from COVID was completely alleviated.
