Hint: it’s often the things that matter most to you.

OCD doesn’t randomly choose topics. It often latches onto the things that feel important, meaningful, or worth protecting. That’s why OCD can feel so confusing. The thoughts can seem significant because they target what you care about most.

The themes may be different, but the cycle remains the same.

Relationship OCD: The relationship itself often isn’t the problem.

With Relationship OCD, people can become stuck in cycles of analysing their feelings, questioning the relationship, seeking reassurance or trying to feel completely certain about how they feel.

OCD often targets the things that matter most to us, which is why relationships can become such a powerful focus for doubt and fear.

Over time, the relationship can start to feel less like something to experience, and more like something that needs to be constantly “figured out.”

This is one of the many ways OCD can show up.

A gentle reminder for the start of the week: be gentle with yourself 🤍

Living with OCD can be exhausting. So much of the struggle happens internally…the overthinking, doubt, analysing and mental back-and-forth that other people often don’t see.

If things feel heavy today, you don’t need to have everything figured out. Small steps still count.

Take a breath, take your time and be kind to yourself this Monday. 🦋

After an OCD therapy session, you might notice a range of different responses. This could include relief, feeling settled, feeling unsure, or feeling mentally exhausted.

This can be a normal part of the process, particularly when you’re starting to approach things you’ve been avoiding.

Here are some tips on how to care for yourself post-session at the OCD Clinic.

Shireen recently shared some reflections on a type of anxiety that’s been coming up more often in the clinic. We’ve been seeing people experience a kind of anxiety that feels broader and harder to pin down. This type of anxiety is not just about day-to-day concerns, but about the state of the world, the future and a sense that things feel uncertain or unpredictable.

This kind of anxiety can be difficult to explain, and often doesn’t fit the usual stereotypes of what anxiety “looks like.”

She explores this further in her latest blog, including why it can feel so intense right now and what might help.

Next in our series: Suicidal OCD.

For some people with OCD, thoughts about su***de can show up in a way that feels intrusive, unwanted and difficult to make sense of.

The distress often comes not just from the thought itself, but from what it seems to mean leading to patterns of analysing, checking or trying to feel certain.

This is an area where people often feel confused or alone, and it can be hard to talk about.

Understanding how OCD can show up in this way is an important part of reducing stigma and supporting people to access the right help.
