It sounds like you are describing Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. If so, Dr. Jeffery Schwartz at UCLA has developed a more effective treatment for OCD that is available free and online (GOOGLE: Dr. Jeffery Schwartz 4 steps). The treatment is intended to be self-administered, i.e. you are your own therapist, so you have to be very motivated. The treatment outsmarts OCD rather than taking it head on because OCD is indeed bigger and stronger than your will power.
Good Job Elizabeth! I might be suffering from OCD too. Since I was a teenager, I had obsessive unwanted thoughts. I'm seeing a mental health counselor at my college now, and I look forward to my next appointment next Thursday.
Excellent! EXCELLENT! Elizabeth describes the reality of getting through OCD. I know myself.....4 years of therapy.....this lady knows what she is talking about.
