I want OCD to stop

[AnonymousParticipant]

I want my OCD to stop, just stop but I don’t know how to do this. And the terrible feelings about myself and anxiety make it a hundred times worse than life before OCD. I just want it to stop.

A good book is ‘How to stop worrying and start living’ by Dale Carnegie.

If we get the anxiety under control, the OCD melts away over time…
