Sometimes, you can simply change the ritual and OCD will evaporate. More often, you need to put that change in the compulsion with some insight into the intrusive thought/feeling that was driving the ritual in the first place. Really unpacking the intrusion can be an exposure in and of itself, but helps you gain clarity on what OCD is really telling you…and sometimes how opposite OCD beliefs are from your own!
If everything were easy, we’d all be experts at allll the things! The reality is that life is often pretty hard and difficult and ERP treatment is no different. It’s hard work, it’s not easy…but it’s work that works!!
It’s not always an intrusive thought that prompts the “o” in OCD…sometimes it is simply an intrusive feeling connected to the sense of being intolerable.
