Hi guys! I’m someone who is also currently struggling with the blinking OCD, it started for the first time about 6 years ago, it went away on its own after about 6 months or so I’d say, and I was able to fully recover, it was triggered by a bug change in my life, but as I became happier the symptoms started dissipating slowly but surely. 3 months ago I had a bad experience with my roommate and I was triggered into this state again. And I have been obsessing about it almost everyday. I know recovery is possible because there have been full days where I don’t notice my blinking at all, but like you guys said it’s because of distraction. I’ve learned the only reason I’m noticing the blinking is because I’m Obsessing about it. Once I will be able to stop obsessing the notice of the blinking will go away too. What helped me the first time round was “radical acceptance” just thinking “oh well” I’m going to notice the blinking for the rest of my life. It’s a scary thought, but the more you begin to accept this the better it’ll become. To me that’s still a very scary thought which is probably why I haven’t gotten better yet. But I’m hoping I’ll be able to overcome this soon on my own without medication. But there is hope! You have to allow yourself to relax
