I'm on a med for it, but I'm in therapy too. It's been reiterated over and over to me that the thoughts/impulses (that's what my OCD predominantly is) are just that, and to try to let them go on by, or laugh at them, or say stop. I have to do all of this. Moreso lately, as my sleep has finally become more productive, overall anxiety better, etc, I don't experience it as much. But when I do, it's very bothersome and it simply disturbs me. I hate it. I have to do so much ****ing "self-talk". It gets old. I'm probably wrong in saying this, but I almost wish I had behaviors moreso than thoughts (I do have minor OCD behaviors, but they're not nearly as irritating as the thoughts).
