Your compulsions don’t control you
Those of us living with OCD experience recurring unwanted thoughts, images or impulses (obsessions) and can often engage in repetitive rituals (compulsions) to feel better. We will often know that our obsessive fears are irrational but feel unable to control them or the anxiety they produce.
Obsessions are often exaggerations of common worries including: germs, sickness, turning off electrical appliances, locking doors, driving safely, order and neatness, violence or gruesome images and sex.
Compulsions often include repetitive actions performed to prevent an obsessive fear from happening or to reduce anxiety. However compulsions can also be thoughts. Common compulsions include: washing, cleaning, checking locks, stoves etc, ordering or lining things up, counting, praying and repeating actions.
