All right with you?

I need help, I'm 23 years old, I have OCD and BBD due to being bipolar. Since I was 14 years old when I was chubby alive with thoughts focused on body parts, if anyone here has overcome this devastating disease 100%, could you advise me on how to overcome it?

I already do therapy. We are more than our appearance, I believe this more and more each day, appearance is something immensely superficial.

I thank

Does your current therapist have training in Exposure Response Therapy? My son would plateau with a therapist and cease making progress if they didn't use this approach. You can read about ERP at the IOCD website. Best wishes.

He specializes in CBT, not exposure. I'm researching a lot on the subject, it has a lot to do with the subconscious... I think about trying to reprogram it via internalization.

Not what you're looking for?
