Donnahoney1 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hello I havnt been on the forum for over a year as my ocd has been much better than it was, however Iv noticed it creeping back after a stressful few months Iv had and at times ocd is bringing up old obsessions that I had previously sought reassurance for in the past and it’s making me feel the need to ask reassurance again for the same old obsessions, even though Iv done this a million times over once before about the same thoughts, is this just a blip and should I ignore these urges to ask reassurance? as I’m terrified ocd is going to start again! I know you can’t avoid stressful events. It makes you vulnerable to ocd again. Thanks for any advice Link to comment
Gemma7 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hi Donna That's great to hear you've been doing well. Yes treat this as a blip and ignore these urges to seek reassurance and you'll feel better in no time Link to comment
Donnahoney1 Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 Thank you I forgot how awful it felt as it’s been a long time it’s like the urge to ask or mention that particular obsession again is burning a hole in your brain until you do it! My ears ring at the same time. Link to comment
