Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Treatments
One of my favorite ways to stop Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is to say my fear out loud to disarm it. Here’s a real example: I talked to someone that said they were afraid that someone was watching them through their web cam even though it was off.
I told them this technique and they said to themselves, “I am afraid that someone is watching me through my web cam even though it is off!” They later reported back to me that they couldn’t help but laugh. I guarantee this won’t be a problem for them anymore.
I find that it’s the simple things and the little things that make the huge difference. There are no such thing as big things, as they are only just a whole bunch of little things put together. Great journey’s start with one small step.
Telling a friend your fear out loud will also help to disarm it, they’ll laugh and you’ll laugh and this will teach your brain that this is something you don’t have to fear anymore almost effortlessly.
The secret is to not use brute force to change the way you think, instead to give your mind enough proof that it’s fears don’t make any sense. This will help the brain to change naturally. What’s great is that you won’t have to spend a lot of energy or effort to make a lasting change.
The times of utilizing and relying only on your will power have come to an end. It simply doesn’t work, period. I would look for ways to change my thinking about certain things instead of relying on forcing change in my mind with will power.
I only started becoming free from obsessive compulsive disorder after I believed that I could be free of it. Here’s another trick I use to get rid of pesky ocd thoughts: If I have an obsessive thought, I will close my eyes or even keep them open and envision how I would act if I didn’t have the ocd thought.
I will have daydreams about it. I will envision being myself without OCD. I then try to act out what I pictured. Sometimes when we want to do something, we first need to play it out in our minds.
Athletes do this right before their competition, they envision winning and this prepares the mind and body to do what they have envisioned. After all, how can you get somewhere if you don’t know where you are going? You’ll end up exactly there, somewhere.
Too many people follow the tide and believe whatever they are told to believe. I would challenge you to challenge your beliefs and make decisions for yourself. We were created to create, not to blindly follow and go with the flow.
If you go with the tide, this will cause you to not be successful, will keep you from getting prosperous and you will still suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder. To be successful, rich and OCD free, you must learn to challenge what you have always believed. This is the only way.
Take action: What are you going to do to get rid of your obsessive compulsive disorder? I would recommend using the above material as a powerful foundation as these are some really powerful tools you can put in your tool box and they will serve you well just as they have done for me.
