I finally made some progress!


Recommended Posts

For the last few years I've been washing my hands so much that I have used two packets of liquid handwash every day. This has cost £14 each week and it's also possible that some of the ingredients are harmful when used in such huge quantities. So I went cold turkey this week (I'm still using bar soap but less of it) and I'm really glad that I've actually made some progress!

Also I went into town for the first time in a couple of years yesterday because I'm not willing to let the OCD and social anxiety control my life any longer.

Nice one Belanna! My hands are so sore from over washing at the moment.  I'll try and use this as inspiration.

Thanks Don K! definitely cut back the washing as much as you can. I'm 30 and have been washing my hands obsessively for 22 years- enough is enough!

This is what it takes... saying Enough already! and standing up to OCD. Well done. You have momentum now; keep it going.

Thanks Polarbear! just got to keep this up, whatever the outcome of my appointment on Wednesday. Severe OCD just saps all the joy out of life!
