The thing about reassurance seeking with OCD is that in the moment, it really feels like it’s going to help.
It feels like if someone could just answer your question one more time, if you could just Google it one more time, or if you could just get 100% certainty, you’d finally be able to move on.
But that relief usually only lasts for a little while. Before long, the doubt comes back, and OCD asks for more reassurance. That’s how the cycle keeps itself going.
If this feels familiar, you’re not alone. OCD is highly treatable, especially with specialized OCD therapy. Book a free call with our team today to learn more, ask questions, and get matched with a therapist who specializes in treating OCD.
