I have Pure OCD, and I sought out high risk behavior to feel good
The best way to describe my life with Pure OCD is that I was inadvertently putting restrictions on my capabilities. I would talk myself out of things that were sensible. I was susceptible to behave compulsively and sought out high risk behavior to feel good. My concern going into therapy was financial, the economic insecurities of taking on another medical bill. But man, I learned so many tools in ERP therapy. My therapist was compassionate and a good listener. One day I was having a rough time and the therapist could tell. She offered to continue the session at a better time, so I appreciated that. Doing the work in ERP therapy allows you to experience a sense of serenity that we all want to achieve. I now have tools to carry with me on my journey.
