How to Handle Intrusive Thoughts (Try this)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- We all have intrusive thoughts, but when you have OCD those thoughts get stuck in your head. They get loud and constant and are hard to ignore. So how is someone meant to get any relief from OCD and these thoughts?
It is often the opposite of what you may think. OCD wants you to argue with it. It wants you to feed it with OCD compulsions. It wants you to grow it with mental compulsions. It wants you to overthink and over process these bad thoughts.
But the way to handle intrusive thoughts is the opposite of what most people think. You have to beat OCD at it’s own game.
In this week’s youtube video, I am teach people how to handle intrusive thoughts and get their life back again.
This video is for educational purposes only and is not intended to replace the guidance of a qualified professional.

I suffer from these!!!! It sends pure terror!!!! Scared of losing control!!!!! Pure terror!!!! Don’t wish this on my worst enemy
Maggie Stroud Exactly. Do you suffer from anxiety?
I feel you so hard. My intrusive thoughts are about death and religion. I hate it. They scare me everyday. And they've been getting worse. Badly worse. My anxiety has EXPLOTED I cannot sleep due to this thoughts. My head constantly hurts.
@@ariannaabreu3532 i understand u, they’re killing me! i’m scared
@@Iheartmag i be thinking of suicide, I feel like such a horrible person
@@burningtirez4548 dont fell that way! are they intrusive? or do u let it happen?
We have these thoughts/images for various reasons, because we hate them, because we are disgusted by them or because we are afraid of the seeing them. Every time we try to avoid them or push them away they show up more. They're not in our minds because we want them. It's actually the complete opposite.
Gut/brain inflammation (caused by inflammatory foods) causes anxiety, which leads to more ocd. Lowering that will lower the thoughts. It is really hard to get out of the ocd cycle unless you fix the inflammation problem. Also, don't treat them as if they're real/physical cuz they're definitely not. Your heart is in the right place, so don't worry.
Well said, but it's like hell mentally....
@@flambojr.4235 I've been struggling with intrusive thoughts and ocd for 6 months now, and I still cant seem to let my thoughts pass without attaching myself to them. You mentioned having a certain diet that helped you, I was wondering if you could go more into detail on that, do you eat vegan or alkaline or do you still consume animal products? ✌💫
I basically avoid anything inflammatory. Anything proven to cause inflammation in studies, as well as things I know that trigger me. So I avoid;
1. All Milk
2. Fried foods
3. Artificial Sugar
4. Green tea
5. Non-organic foods
6. Coffee
7. Eggs
8. Pineapple/Papaya (Damages gut in excess)
9. Really spicy foods
I know for a fact these things caused me terrible ocd attacks. Ever since the change I haven't suffered one. 👍 I still eat most meats and vegetables. Potatos have irritants on the skin so check if they bother you, I'm still unsure myself. Changing the way you handle thoughts are a must too. You have to see these thoughts as the opposite of what you want. If you see/hear (ocd.thought) it's because you oppose and don't agree with it (that's the reason why they are in mind). Just acknowledge they're there cuz you're afraid and disturbed by them. 🍀
@@alana.m6850 If you do try the diet change I recommend doing a 16-21 hour fast to lower your current inflammation after. Take a magnesium glycinate supplement before the fast. Treat your body like a forest. Inflammation is the fire that leaves destruction even after being put out. Exercise and fasting helps rebuild. You should be able to drastically reduce the intensity of the thoughts. Hope it helps. My ocd started when I was 19 and at 21 it is mostly controlled. 😊
I have suffered from this for years. A tip, these thoughts are NOT YOU! When these thoughts come to mind, instead of feeding it. Tell yourself a positive thought about yourself. These fears are lies.
last couple months I’ve had sexual intrusive thoughts it makes me feel like such a horrible person to the point where I think of suicide man it feels like hell .
Same I feel like I shouldn’t live and I’m scared of losing control 😣
Hang in there man, no one deserves this. You gotta battle through it💪🏾
Please tell yourself that that is not you! You are better than those thoughts!
Same and i have so much going on with my mental heath it sucks
hey they are thoughts.. its not you.. allow them and dont associate it with yourself
I am 14 years old and have been struggling for a while and fighting with my mom to go to a therapist because I was worried about what they would think about me but I looked up how to deal with fleading thoughts and this video came up and I watched it and it really helped thank you so much
I’m 14 and it’s hard it’s like you like you teenage years are ruined and your parents don’t understand
@@kevintopete9337 yeah it sucks
i’m 15 and i totally feel you. i finally told my mom that i’ve been having some mental health issues and wanted to get diagnosed but she dismissed them and said it was “just a phase.”
@@babyshart4895 bro i haven't told anyone but my younger brother he gets it man that suck perhaps u should tell her that its serious and that ur not joking
Some support: The crisis lines are on google. Maybe search up the instructions to. The instructions for Canada: just text the word text or Text or TEXT I'm not sure which one. They are also on Quora (the phone numbers) if you search up something bad mental health related. They show up at the top if you click on the page from the website. Numbers that you can call are on google. Make sure it's the right one for your country.
My thoughts are s*xually inappropriate and it's hard to accept it. It makes me worry that agreeing with it will make it come true
I’ve got to stop watching porn, if u do, Nd if u pray . Tell God to help u
@@bigpump6601 God can't cure OCD or PTSD
@@elipeeli The past year I’ve been struggling with it as well and it’s made me hate going to work or being around a lot of people. The words “RP” and “CP” keep popping up into my head when ever I’m on Google and RUclips and it just makes me wanna cry and yell. I hate Rapists and Child Molesters and would never hurt women or children or want to see women and children getting hurt and for these words to keep popping up just makes me feel like a monster.
@@allengreene9954 hopefully you can find a therapist or psychiatrist to talk to. You may have OCD or something else but you should probably see a professional if it's really bothering you. I'm seeing one and it's been helping. And remember, if you dislike a therapist and feel they are not a good fit for you you can ask for a change. But never suffer alone or in silence. Good luck
@@elipeeli Thanks. I just don’t know because I’ve never had it like this. Also I’ve been watching movie scenes of rapists getting beat up and killed in movies to counteract the bad thoughts which isn’t really healthy either......
I have really bad intrusive thoughts its 2:17am rn and it causes me too just.. cry. And cry. Its constant 24/7 and it feels like I'm losing my mind. It feels like a person In my brain telling me all of this.
it’s happening to me right now and i don’t know what to do, i can’t make it go away and it’s making me want to die
@@inspiringviolet184 thank you so much, i will give it a try!
Same I see images also and it’s not fun I feel like I’m losing my mind I just want it to go away I feel like it’s just those thoughts taking me over and when I try to think it never stays
Help me please
This makes me cry because I relate to you all so much and it feel like I'm constantly screaming in my mind. Like I'm stuck in some prison and people are showing me disturbing images involving everything I love and destroying it. I just wanna enjoy things but no matter what I do, the thoughts keep coming back
I’m 12. I’m definitely too young for all this and it really panics me. It’s been going on for a while I’d say about a few months and I’m so sick of it. You feel like your losing yourself. It drives you crazy and I hate it. If this doesn’t work I might go to a professional but I think this will! Thanks!
Im also 12. Its straight up pain, i also am experiencing it since August. I think I might go crazy and i hate it
@@isilostit2135 hey btw since then the intrusive thoughts have stopped without therapy or counselling
@@ehals009 How long did it take for it to go away? I'm 13, and I've been experiencing it for a few weeks, I don't know what to do
I’ve had these thoughts since 11, I was able to get rid of them but they kept coming back, I’m 13 and I’m still suffering with them but I’m still trying to get rid of this
i suffer from ocd intrusive thoughts and images for years and it’s getting bigger and bigger. everyday i feel like im losing myself. im so tired😩
I dealed with this for almost a year now and I'm tired of it! 😩
I’m dealing with this for nearly a year and a half and I’m exhausted to. When is it going to end?
Same like bruh I just wanna relax but nah intrusive thoughts go brrrrr🤪😜
Thank you. Don't give up y'all. OCD is treatable and you are not your thoughts. They don't have to have any meaning! 💗🌞🙏It's true resisting or mocking the OCD or letting the thought happen but continue to do what you need to do in this moment is key. Love your videos. I'm training to be a mental health therapist too.
These thoughts are ruining my mental health, i try so hard to erase them, sometimes I'm calm but then next day, i feel like i want to die.
Don't Try hard to erase them your only giving them energy and they will come back again again. Trick is to imagine the worst one u can it is hard at first but keep doing it until the brain stops sending panic then when they come out the blue u don't trigger your anxiety cause u know its only thoughts and thoughts happen all the time your brains a thought super highway but your attracting the warning inducing ones when they are nothing. Thoughts are not facts
@@scott7034 I have this OCD where I'm afraid of becoming someone I don't like. Like adoption their traits and what not. Is there any advice for that?
Same. Just yesterday I was completely fine. Then today an intrusive thought popped in my mind. It comes and goes for me and I’m getting tired of dealing with it. I was never like this almost my entire life. It feels like I was a completely different person when I had a healthy mindset. 😩 I don’t really know who I am anymore. 😔
literally same
@@hueso5071 hi! May I ask when it started?
You got to have it to understand it. I spent years learning something, but I spent my whole life experiencing ocd. A couple years of educating yourself, vs waking up and falling asleep everyday for most your life, huge difference.
I get violent images that stick in my mind and it distresses me immensely. A lot are violent things happening to me and once it’s there I can’t get rid of it
this is so true 😭.....mahn I'm really tired of these thoughts and sometimes I really question my phsycological health to the point that sometimes I think I'm a phsycopath 😭😭😭.....and the worst part is that I'm only 16 and it's really scary to Handel these thoughts 😔
I'm 16 too 😭 , I get stressed immensely , I can't handle them anymore. !
ok, to stop that don’t watch shows with those things in then
Bunny I feel the same
@@anonymous641 I'm only 14 having a bunch of these crazy thoughts 😭
This was extremely helpful when you used the fingertrap analogy I just started crying from relief
Thank you very much. This is really easier said than done. I started recently giving up, and ended sleeping all day and night long, resulting in multiple headaches and depression. Because whenever I want to do something productive, no matter how simple is that task, intrusive thoughts strike in and start to make me feel bad about myself and unworthy.
This actually made more sense than any other video I’ve watched. I’ve not been diagnosed with it yet but I’m 100% positive I have it. Thank you for sharing. I thought I was crazy, then also reading the comments make me feel so much more normal.
I'm not diagnosed with OCD, but I an diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. I've always struggled with intrusive thoughs but it's been the worst it's ever been for a little over a year now. This video has made me feel seen and valid, for even just a moment, so I have to say thank you.
I don’t know if this is a form of ocd but I get mean thoughts in my head I don’t mean about people I love. Or when I hear about someone dying or someone who is sick my mind will say “hope they die” or when I am talking to someone in person I get these thoughts and I don’t mean them. They give me severe anxiety and I don’t know if I’m a bad person or not. I am scared for the future for a loved one to pass away and I get mean thoughts about them . Do you think this is ocd?
Hello, I'm not an expert but I do have OCD and can relate to what you're experiencing. It sounds like it might be OCD but a therapist would probably know for sure.
Same 😫 it’s horrible 😢
@@o0xXKilahKandyXx0o I was diagnosed with ocd and don’t worry those thoughts do go away! I’m still struggling with other thoughts tho:(
@@chelzyramirez3663 I got some tips :) My ocd started 2 years ago and today it is 99% handled by just eliminating inflammatory foods. Ocd will remain if you consume milk, artifical sugar, green tea, pizza or anything with oil. If you do water/dry fasts you will see a huge reduction in thoughts. Also remember these thoughts only appear because you're strongly against them. It's trauma based.
It also helps to know you're only an observer to bad thoughts & tension.
@@flambojr.4235 thank you so much! Did you do all this on your own?
That's genuinely excellent; there are points where I feel as though the most mundane things cause stress for me in such great portions and they occupy so much of my mind at times. This really helped since I've been trying to talk back to the thought for so long, I never thought of agreeing with it sarcastically. Releases so much emotional stress and tension on my back; I've halted therapy for two years now, and I'm glad that you posted this, genuinely.
Glad you find it helpful Arnav.
Thank you for this video, that's a good idea! My intrusive thoughts change daily, I actually don't have them daily it's only when something happens that's upsetting to me and I can think about it for days even weeks. I try not to think about it but it just pops in my head over and over hundreds of times in one day. My intrusive thought past 2 days is... so I just trained a new employee and he is mentally challenged a little so he is a very slow learner, we only have 3 days to train them so I did what I could. I know for a fact I did a good job training him and I was very patient and understanding with him which really took allot out of me. Well one of our annoying regular customers who acts like he works there said to me-infront of the guy I trained "Is he done training yet?" I said yes, "well you didn't do a good job at all you need to start over" I said no I don't need to retrain him because I know I did a good job training him, "oh is that what you think? " I said no that's what I know I am one of the best trainers at this company, "Oh yeah who told you that?" Me- umm the ones I trained, my managers, area managers and every job I have worked at that wasn't me to be a trainer..."So you listened to them?" I said yes I did and walked away. The more I think about it the more it angers me, like how rude that was only said to bring me down. It worked!
You are truly a blessing. Thank you.
Thanks a lot, ma'am. It's given me a completely new insight on how to deal with thoughts.
My intrustive thoughts/images were gone for almost a whole year, and recently came back super bad. I was washing dishes, and washed a knife, it was awful
Me too! That’s a reason why I don’t like washing the dishes but mostly cause I don’t like washing them. But same it’s a scary feeling I have to think of another thing distract myself. Hope you are doing fine! :)
Same. I haven't had an intrusive thought in 4 years and all of sudden they came back. It's frustrating dealing with them. 😔
@@hueso5071 i haven’t had an intrusive thought in months and i got one yesterday and now i keep on having different weird irrational thoughts that cause panic/anxiety attacks and it doesnt let me be enjoy life and be calm and happy 😔 it feels like you are back to where you started and it’s sucks so much i feel so hopeless and im suffering so much :( and im only 18 and im scared bc how am i going to live like this for the rest of my life??🙁 and to make it worse i get false arousals 😞 this is so fucking terrifying and scary...sorry for the essay i just needed to vent what im currently going through 😀👍
@@abigaillll._ no worries bro. Hang in there. I’m dealing with intrusive thoughts as well. I use to have a healthy mindset but somewhere along the way I developed a minor anxiety disorder and that causes my intrusive thoughts. Whatever you need to get off your chest, we’re here for you. You’re not alone.
@@abigaillll._ how are you now, I’m 18 and feel the same as you did when you typed this paragraph
Watching this video and reading the comments... I never felt that understood, I finally understand what is wrong with me and that I am not the only one
This all made so much sense, and I do wish it was as easy as just letting the thoughts go
Thank you so much! I have been suffering for months and never realize what is was, this makes perfect sense now.
I recently had a really disturbing nightmare based around one of my really horrible intrusive thoughts that I get rarely, but ever since it I cant stop getting the intrusive thoughts about it and I am constantly crying. I really pray it will get better :(
I have intrusive thoughts for 2 days and just was starting to panic and get emotional. without this video i probably would not be able to calm down but now that i no that its a comon thing i can calm down a little bit.thank you soooo much for talking about this.
Hello, i have been going through thoughts like this and its very exhuasting on my mind. i think it would help to talk to someone with same problem. msg me on here for contact info.
Me too. I feel like I’m going crazy and wondering if I’m a horrible person because I know I would never do these things but they come in mind and making me question if I really will
I am literally BLESSED to find this video omg thank you
This was a big help! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Your videos are amazing Natasha, thank you so much for sharing them. We refer to them a lot for help and guidance.
Thank you, I really need help right now and you helped me, so thank you for what you do. I wouldn't wish this disease to anyone. Our brains are so powerful and losing control of your thoughts is a bit like dying a little on the inside. It's horrible. You gave me hope though. And all those comments that say they are doing better, it gives hope. It can change. We can start living and breathing again soon.
loved the metaphore, thank you for this video
I have had a viral syndrome for months now and I have been struggling with sticky and intrusive thoughts. This video was very helpful.❤️
Brilliant very well put.
Thank you!!!!! I feel like this will help a lot I have been struggling at the moment it feels like it's haunting me and I
can't get away the accepting and agreeing part kinda scares me but I understand where you are coming from so thank you I think this will really help!
Pippa, If negative thoughts affect your internal physical health visit a good psychologist. Heal yourself with determination. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety-stress. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back erect, hands on lap with palms upwards, eyes closed, be still and observe your natural incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 10-15 minutes. Slowly negative thoughts will reduce and relax the mind. During your daily activity keep observing your breath consciously. Do the above meditation daily to feel relaxed. For more healing enter the following on google search “528 Hz affirmations for health and healing you tube”” and listen for 10 minutes before sleep. Repeat softly in the mind. You will get relief quickly. Best wishes. Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.
Thank you for helping me
I am happy to help ❤️
Thank you soo much for posting this video 🙏 I'm gonna try this from now for sure.
This video helps me understand and explain how this work so well! Thank you ❤
Thank you Natasha. This was actually helpful
This one was great. Thank you 🤗
When you get the thought dont give it amotional rssponse. This takes the power out of it defeating it .
My intrusive thoughts are more then a heavy lethal bullet stuck in my chest
Best video on topic yet. ill try this
Thank you so much I really needed to hear this
* Singing * "Intrusive thooouuughhts!"
Hahaha I laughed so hard. It appears that you are at least somewhat of a singer. ❤️
this was so great it helped distract me // take back my power
Yes! Thank you for making this video. Gonna implement the mocking of the intrusive thoughts 🙂
How did it go?
Thank you so much for this wow. Thank you 100xs.
Omg! Thank you thank you thank you for making this video!! I have struggled so long with intrusive thoughts, and I've never seen it in this perspective! The second I tried it I started feeling better!!! You have no idea how much I wish I can hugged you right now lol! ♥️
Glad it was helpful Nicole 💓
This helped a lot! thank you Natasha :D
Thank you so much Natasha stay blessed !
Wow!! This was so helpful. The tool you used to demonstrate OCD was great. It always helps to give a visual for something that isn't a physical object (thoughts).
Thank you
Thank you. I feel as if I’m the almost opposite in some way. I think at it and it accidentally pokes at it. I sometimes push it back but most definitely i mock it and some reason i find myself in a lot of circles. 😅
We need more therapist like you
Wow, so good. I am 24 and love the Lord and I have been in counseling the past month, and we are learning that I am showing concerning signs for intrusive thoughts OCD and it gives me a lot of clarity and hope because it can be really isolating and entrapping when going to friends for advice and you’re processing is way different and you walk away feeling less encouraged than you did walking into the conversation. Being Christian and having intrusive thoughts can be really hard too. So if you are curious about yourself and thinking, please reach out to a counselor with some history on this. Because without it, I wouldn’t have been able to research, find videos, get clarity that I’m NOT CRAZY. and so on.
yes!! i’m christian and 12 and have blasphemous thoughts that really scare me and i feel like i’m disrespecting God. i try to kind of fight them because i don’t agree with them and it doesn’t really work. i honestly give up with life.
You are a life saver 🙏🏽😩🙂
Thank you! I finally get it!
I wish Natasha gets more views...her way of telling is also to the point, not beating around the bush!
Omg this helped me tremendously thank you so much you saved me.
Thank you for the great video
Great video
Thank you very doctor Natasha your video is really helpful, even though I don't have the access to a Doctor because I'm in meddle east. But you're always here thank you again for that
i didn't know this was an OCD thing. I worry about harming people and am scared about it but than i don't care and almost act on them
Great job
My life feels so fucked my suicidal thoughts have gotta worse ever since I started having intrusive thoughts my depression and anxiety too idk what to do i wanna stop having these thoughts but they won’t stop
Are you ok now?
This counterintuitive approach is so helpful! Does this work for anxious feelings/sensations as well?
I feel like I may have ocd, I always get really bad intrusive thoughts like sexual things or sometimes incest and sometimes murder. But I know I wouldn’t wanna do any of those it’s just I always second guess myself. And then a lot of times I have to tap my finger a certain amount of times or the world is gonna end. I just don’t wanna self diagnose because I don’t have access to get a test
i’m the exact same!! last year it got extremely bad for me and i couldnt reccomend cbt (cognitive behavioural therapy) enough it helped me through so much, i would reccomend looking into it even if you arent diagnosed :)
@@faygofrl6370 it helped me to look at things from a normal persons perspective and realise how irrational my fears were, it also helped me face trauma and get to the root of my fear :) i really hope your okay if you ever need to talk my insta is @harryogradyx

Great way to explain
Dont talk about my intrusive thoughts because they are just so...awful. But I literally have them every single day. All the time. I feel like im going to grow older and become what they tell me to. It feels like my own personal hell its gotten so bad that ive had some suicidal thoughts.
Hello. Your intrusive thought is actually what u fear the most its not a thought you like or you wouldn't be here. Only thoughts that are the opposite of yourself make you angry and sad hence why u are here. 90% of people get intrusive thoughts but either don't speak about them or just ignore them but yourself have gave them energy so they will always come while u give them that. Like trying to get to sleep while thinking about how u need to get to sleep or else u will be tired and all these things can go wrong as a result. When that happens u make sleeping near impossible cause u give it your full intension. Try not avoiding your thoughts but actively thinking about them in the worst way. It's hard but the more u do it the more u realise this is not my real way of thinking this is just a meaningless thought I have given far too much power and time. Keep thinking it until that really sets in and then in time when that thought appears your brain won't trigger that panic like it would because your brain will be used to this garbage thought u have given it time to realise its just a thought that means nothing
@@scott7034 When u stop having anxiety against those thoughts, don't you get feeling like why I am not feeling disgusted by those thoughts anymore, I think I should feel disgusted and you wanna fear those thoughts again???
@@scott7034 i seriously need to hear this... I was so scared of my own thoughts that i was unable to do anything... I had that fear of doing or thinking out of compulsion after i have read your comment i understand that it just fears... And thought... It means nothing.

Thank you I pray this helps
I like this!
Thank you!
Thank you!!
I don’t get intrusive thoughts but I feel like everything has to feel the same on both sides of my body - what is this
Orla that might be Symmetry OCD. Here is a video on that: ruclips.net/video/UT34NOb5rn0/видео.html
Thanks
In my case this thought come - 'happienes is nothing stay sad' - this thought come in my mind
I've recently been dealing with harm OCD with very vivid images and thoughts saying "do it." It sucks big time. OCD thoughts are just a counterfeit, they're not real and inviting them to be there without interaction certainly destroys its power. Making a mockery of the thoughts is kind of entertaining in its own way. May as well have fun with it.
Agreeing with it sounds like a horrible idea, accept it but don't agree with it. That has to be clear. Don't agree with it just acknowledge it. Don't panic or make yourself panic
Wow, your soo good.
Thank you so much
Thanks you Miss.
💘 OCD can be treated by Buspirone/Esketamine ! Wishing all ocd sufferers getting healthiness & happiness.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you 😍😍 very much Madam......
God bless you!
Hi Natasha, you are helping me with my moral ocd. I would like it a lot if you could make a video on guilty feelings if I hear or see an inappropriate thing. Eg on tv 🤗 (age 10)
Thank you
you just helped me so much liek u do t understand i hate my intrusive thoughts i struggled with them forever
Thankyou !!
I have cursing intrusive thoughts and I am afraid I'm really cursing someone and will affect their life in a bad way.😢
Oh wowwww 😯 I have thoughts about swearing too... I think it means I want to actually say bad words which I shouldn't do... It's against my religion but sometimes I wish I could be like other kids and cuss... 😓
God bless you, thanks a lot mam😭❤️
I deal with anxiety & I think I get frustrated & start having some disturbing thoughts. I get afraid that I will snap & do something that I really don’t want to do. It’s to the point now that my body & mind gets hot when these thoughts come up. Not a good feeling. I do my best to try to get them out my mind. Usually successful but just nervous that I’m going to lose it & harm someone that’s close to me.
Take a deep breath. I have the same thoughts. The fact you think them and are so afraid shows your love for those around you and how you will not do that.
same, it's horrible, the anxiety that i feel gets over my body, i always try to make myself forget about it and watch something i like but it's still damaging.
Same. I start to sweat and my hands begin to tremble. It felt like I was about to faint and vomit.
Wow. So many people like me... it really made me realize im not alone. Please feel free to comment if you want someone for support or to talk to. Because i understand. Maybe make a groupchat if i get enough people. I suffer from perinatal ocd and a bit of the violent one. Everybody hang in there and i love you
u really are not alone, intrusive thoughts can make someone feel crazy when in reality they’re a good person for being able to recognize the incorrectness
The worse with OCD is that no many “specialists” really know about it and how to HELP patients to don’t get worse. That is hopeless 😞
I agree - that is horrible. I would recommend going to the International OCD Foundation’s resource page to find help at www.iocdf.org/find-help or contacting NOCD who provide teletherapy at go.treatmyocd.com/at_parenting
Like I have OCD where im playing with slime, and I’ll be like, “ I could eat this right now..” and then I have to put it away across the room. And yet my friend has the audacity to say “omg my OCD is soo bad Rn, like the paper towels aren’t evennnn!”
Breathing slow helps with the thoughts because ocd is an anxiety disorder and breathing slow reduces anxiety wich makes the thoughts less intense since there made from anxiety so combine exposure with breathing and you will be on your way and not just that it can also help out with other disorders
Thanks
i'm gonna keep this advice and come back if this helps cause i think it might! :)
Can you please do a video of ONLY past memories that don't even matter, haunting you and how to get them to get out of your head, when they are stuck on a loop. For kids who are struggling with it.
thank you so much oh my god
