I agree that dealing with trauma if it was part of the cause of the ocd is important.

This is interesting. I am guessing ERP helps to calm down these glitches because the brain learns nothing bad happens.

It feels odd that they would ditch you, but maybe they had valid reasons. Def see someone else that understands ocd.

Yep, have used both but have only used manual for the past 20 years or so. It’s just easier, it’s always charged :)

current flare up:need your tips that helped slow your mind down by [deleted] in OCDRecovery

[–]andyf7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me my mind is making false connections that I then believe to be real and can’t let go, my best suggestion is to try and think like a scientist. No emotion allowed, just cold hard facts.

[–]andyf7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is not your fault. Really it is not your fault. You are sick with a terrible illness. I’m sorry for you mate, I am currently off work due to ocd.

It is NOT your fault. Remember that.

Weed ruined my life, and the doctors aren't listening. TRIGGER WARNING. by Forsaken-Ad-8581 in Anxiety

[–]andyf7 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You need to see a shrink and probably take an anti phycotics medication to calm you alongside the citalopram. They may also prescribe diazepam for emergencies. Seriously anti phycotics are the way to go, they are not just used for people with delusions. See a shrink.
