OCD obsessions feel sticky, and compulsions trap us in the web. 🕸️
That’s the exhausting cycle of OCD—thoughts that won’t let go, and rituals that keep us stuck.

New blog post! 💀
Week 3 of OCD Awareness Month in our Haunted House of OCD series: The Bedroom.
When the house settles and the air goes still, every creak gets louder — and so do the thoughts.
Where rest turns into rumination. 🛏️

OCD is like a jump scare 👻—in your own head.
Intrusive thoughts can appear out of nowhere and scare you to your core.

🧠 Reminder: Compulsions don’t actually help.
Compulsions are the actions we do in response to obsessions — those scary, uncomfortable thoughts we’d rather not have. 😣
They might bring a moment of relief, but they keep the OCD cycle spinning. 🔄
We can learn to face the fear without the compulsion. 💪🏾

New blog post for OCD Awareness Month 👻

Step inside The Haunted House of OCD—starting with the bathroom.
It’s not ghosts that haunt this room, but intrusive thoughts, “what ifs,” and the never-ending search for certainty.
