Have you ever noticed that when someone tries to rationalize your OCD intrusive thoughts away it doesn’t help? Even when you tell yourself your compulsions don’t make sense, do you have a hard time not doing them?

That feeling of danger, incompleteness or fear is not in your mind, it’s in your brain. There is a biological reason why you just can’t shake off those uncomfortable feelings.

Once you understand the science behind your doubt, it will make more sense why it is so important to override those feelings and not give in to OCD’s demands.

In this week’s Youtube video I talk about why those OCD intrusive thoughts feel so real and what to do about it.
