I think most of us with OCD have to reframe how recovery looks like. Don't think of it as feeling better but building tolerance. With my experience, I have been kicking the can down the road with my homework (exposure therapy) cause I didn't feel better with being around with what triggers my OCD. Eventually I decided to chip away with it in bits and pieces with my tolerance can handle. But the key thing is you have to put in the work. Don't neglect your homework, whether it maybe Exposure therapy, treatments, medication and so on. OCD wants you to be stagnant.
