You can't always see an OCD compulsion, but that doesn't make it any less real. In this live event, OCD therapist Alegra Kastens shares how to identify mental compulsions like replaying past conversations or mentally "neutralizing" unwanted thoughts, why they can feel automatic (but aren't), and what you can do about them. She also answers questions about OCD and mental compulsions from the NOCD Community.
