    "If I do it all correctly, they won't be racist towards me" WOW I never knew that was OCD. I thought maybe I was just keeping myself safe but it's like you have to constantly wear a mask bcs you never know if someones hatred towards you will be enough for them to take your own life. It's hard. It makes it hard to go outside.

    What does she mean when she says: "I can help you use this technique to hear your ancestors better?" 43:02

      Hi! Saraa here. Thank you for your question. This is what I meant: OCD often shows up as a kind of “voice” telling you what to do. It can tell you that you must do certain things in order for the world to be as it should. And if you don’t follow those rules, a lot of emotional pain can happen as you worry about the outcome. For someone who believes that their ancestors voices guide them …the OCD “voice” can get in the way by clouding their mind. While I am not an expert in this area of ancestral guidance, I CAN help you learn to identify the OCD voice, challenge it, set boundaries with it and get a handle on it. That way it can get out of the way of your own spiritual and ancestral practices. I hope this answer provided more clarity. Thanks for watching 😊

      This sounds like it has been hard for you. It’s important to remember how ever OCD shows up, the treatment remains the same. Exposure Response Prevention therapy teaches us to confront our obsessions and sit with the discomfort we feel around them. Then, we learn to resist the urge to do compulsions. At NOCD we are proud to offer effective, affordable, and convenient OCD therapy. It's customized for each person and their unique needs, but here's how ERP generally works: After asking you about your specific symptoms, a trained therapist who specializes in OCD creates your ERP therapy plan. Based on that, you'll work together to rank your fears or triggers based on how stressful they seem-this way, you can gain coping skills gradually without getting overwhelmed.
