Hello, everyone! It's me again. So this past week has been undeniably tiring for me as I've been having OCD flare ups and it has been bothering me so much to the point that I literally have to hold my breath in order to not feel anxious. However, I am still trying very hard to do my best and to not let OCD take over my life like how it did before. Here's hoping that all of us here will be okay and that no harm will fall upon us. I really hope that you guys have the support you'd need and that all of you are doing well.

Thank You for your kind words and support.
Sit with the anxiety and the feared consequences, by focusing on it, in a room.
The anxiety will be high in the beginning, but it will slowly get lower.
Let the thoughts be there.
Do not interact or argue with the thoughts.
Relabel the thought as an OCD thought.
The thought might still be popping up, but it will slowly fade away.
The thought will lose its importance.
I hope this helps.
