Thank you finally a real video on more then one racing thoughts. Idk what I'm thinking about but it's more like 10p0 thoughts at one time and I'm about to cut my throat. I have no life and I multitask thousands of thoughts at once. Please help. I can't stop the thoughts bug I can raise and lower blood pressure and slow my heart don't. But the thoughts are debilitating. I can't handle it anymore. I'm always angry for thr past decade
Hey buddy! Nope! It just means accepting we have a disorder and moving forward. OCD does not mean we have a life sentence of chronic suffering. We can get to a point where we have the abscence of chronic anxiety, guilt, and or shame.
@@aguywhohikes1271 Thanks for the reply! So in accepting we have a disorder does that mean it’s lifelong or during the process of recovery can we leave it behind? At the end of the day I just wanna stop identifying with OCD and live the short number of years we have on this earth lol just feels unfair. I just want to get to a point where I don’t worry about OCD every single day.
Hello Nick, thank you for your time! Love your videos. So I’m amazing about the distraction…. I have a toddler and I notice when we are busy and I’m talking with other mothers at play dates I’ll still have intrusive thoughts but I do notice since I’m distracted it really sets my day better. I don’t focus on me being distracted all the time but is it ok to say, “I like to keep busy because it helps me not focus on the negative thoughts or feeling as much.” Probably not?
Please do a video on self-life acceptance and Somatic OCD. You expressed something similar to me when you explained that when you developed Tinnitus, you couldn’t stop thinking about it. Well, I get these terrible tremors, and I can feel them in my arms, and see my hands shaking profusely, and even feel them throughout my whole body sometimes. I can’t accept this and I can’t stop thinking about it. I’ve had signs of Somatic OCD since I was young and have had themes in the realm of imagined thoughts, but I’ve never had thoughts surrounding something that is actually happening. My brain keeps trying to find out if they’re real or somehow psychosomatic, or only real because I focus on my body so much. I need help so bad man.
Hey buddy! I can def do that! Life acceptance is a huge part of the recovery journey. Oh yes, OCD loves to check if something is real or not, one of it's main tricks.
I like the way you all explain things to us.
Thanks Nick. I am finding the breakdown of chapters in the books through an OCD recovery perspective very beneficial. I love this youtube channel!

What book are you reading
So accepting that I have OCD means
it’s a life sentence and a brain disease? That sucks on an absolute monumental level man.
