Contamination OCD taking over my life

As crazy as it sounds, the more you stay in your room, the more it reinforces the idea to your brain that everywhere else is unclean. This doesn’t mean you have to lay in a garbage truck right away to get over the contamination fears, but it does mean you can start finding small challenges to build up your resiliency. I won’t lie, it’s scary as **** like omfg it’s terrifying. But that’s why we start with the smaller things first.

OCD is hard, stay strong. 💕
