I’m 14 and I have been struggling with my intrusive thoughts for years, and since I watched your videos and listen to everything they have completely stopped. I have some, but I don’t have much is a used. Thank you so much for everything. I’m still watching a video to this day.❤

Im 41. Its been a lifelong battle. When i was really young and it wasnt as bad I thought everyones mind was like mine. constnatly worried, preoccupied, unable to focus on things that im interested in because im worried about something bad happening or me doing something wrong and hurting someone....and then getting into some sort of therapy and understanding that no. Everyones mind is not like that....its not just that im experiencing the same thigns as them but im just weak.

some days are good. some days are bad. I work at it everyday. I know it will be till I die. My shadow.

GUESS WHAT I'm doing so much better. my mum told me she was proud of me and now I'm even more motivated.

I’m 41 years old and it has always been with me. It has certainly gotten worse with age. I fear the future as I have spent a lot of my life isolating myself and really only have my parents in my life. I can barely function in this world even with their help so the future really scares me. Your videos are truly helpful though and it’s helpful knowing I’m not alone in struggling.

It's been more than 12 years :( and I'm still trying to get better.

I have such horrible racism OCD I avoid everything and can't stop noticing things from a racial perspective and it kills me.

Wondering when OCD will subside is a compulsion within itself, it is literally OCD at work because there is no inherent nature of the thoughts that makes you do anything. You considered them an attack on your well-being.

OCD refers more to reaction to the thoughts than the thoughts themselves, they are *no* intrusive thoughts. Just the meaning we give that makes it as scary as it seems.

There’s no reason to wonder whether it ends when it technically ends depending on how you’re reacting to your own brain, nothing to do with the thoughts themselves.

Ive been having health anxiety and general anxiety disorder for about 4 months now and recently ive been having this fear of having schizophrenia...I dont know what to do, everything i hear or see makes me question if its real or not, im always hyper-aware of my surroundings....This makes me very anxious all the time😢

[sarahholland]

[Akkashmishra]

Is speaking out something out loud count as a compulsion to prevent my mid from saying something wrong

[arielyaskow]

When you recover, does OCD come back ? Do you have to keep doing exposures to ensure it doesn't?

[monkeylady]

Epic prank

Edit: i am editing this one year later. I have never watched this before

[LubaLuba]

You guys are charging too much for something that in most cases grow out of

[EmperorLelouchx]

I thought this stays with us for life? Or am I wrong

[mastowl_]

You can't heal at all. I'm 21 i have ocd since i'm 16. Don't bother yourself, it's definitive.
