yes but how erp can help in these case?

The technique that I try to use is to relabel the thought as OCD.

The thought will come with high levels of anxiety in the beginning.

But the anxiety will slowly get lesser.

The thought will lose importance and fade away.

I have the same symptom of obsessive thoughts constantly changing, and they create anxiety.

I hope the technique helps.
