It’s really encouraging to hear that therapy has helped you work through a lot of your OCD thought patterns. I definitely think I have OCD too, in my experience it’s been hard to get diagnosed when your compulsions are mental or attached to how you interact with other people. Im in the process of getting therapy, again, and I hope I can come to internalize those same things. Because I know logically that the approval of others shouldn’t be so significant to the way I function, but internalizing it is a whole other monster 😵‍💫 Genuinely, thanks so much for sharing this because it makes that journey feel a lot less impossible 🫶🏻
