EVERYTHING PERFECT

Quote

Since I can recall I have had PERFECT OCD! Meaning everything had to be JUST RIGHT! Nothing could have a minor flaw, scratch oe be NOT what I deemed perfect. It has become better as I have become older but the waste of time researching, returning items to stores and constant perfectionism has always been draining!

Try to do something a little wrong. For example, if you have a painting on the wall, try to move it a little. Try it to not be perfect, just a little moved. That is just an example. You may try any other thing that you are making just perfect, do a little imperfect. It will cost you many stress and anxety. But it is fine and normal. Eventually the anxiety must go down. And you will know that you won a little battle with OCD. Then you may step forward and do another thing a little imperfect. In some period of time you will realise that you dont have to do everything just so perfect. Humans are imperfect and that is fine

How do you do erp for a health contamination issue such as someone who has an illness , virus or disease and does not want to spread it ? Washing hands is necessary so how do you do erp when you must wash but not excessively like is common with ocd

If I travel different routes back from places than I took to get there, it causes me severe anxiety and ruminating that I caused harm to people.

I dont then i get the fear that i i will unneccesarily limit my self and then o get the feeling to check something related to that so i know i wouldnt limit myself but then it means i have to avoid anything eelated and limit doing even normal things. So if i get the idea of doing something should i never do it or be like i'll just do it later and delay it?

Is erp done as thoughts and urges come in or do you purposely think of something that you fear then try to not respond

What is erp for health anxiety just disregard? How about erp whenever you feel a part of the bodiy and makes me anxious like scalp has bumps, skin muscles all that have to be symmetrical/ or even just feeling anything can make me anxious 😩

What is the ERP for this?
Accept uncertainty, allow the thought that he is not handsome to be there without trying to get rid of it or do compulsions. Maybe you don’t think he is handsome, maybe you do. Feelings and thoughts are not facts
