It seems that you are trying to make your ways of fighting off compulsions perfect and checking to see if you have relief, which makes you feel the opposite. To actually get relief you need to go against these new obsessions. On Psychogy Today there is an article called Obsessing about Obsessing: When OCD Goes Meta about someone who had similar problems (Sorry can't link). Once again, your best bet to achieving relief is to see a therapist. Hope you feel better soon! OCD sucks.

That's very likely what's happened but it makes no sense still. As soon as I find a way of getting past them I have the 6 hours of freedom then I begin thinking about how I achieved it and I'm back to square one. I honestly can't stand those sites anymore I used to visit them daily when I was really bad a couple years ago but the fact that I'm still suffering now just shows how shallow the information is. Who makes those articles, who writes all these self help books? People who study this **** in college and read books about it and talk to sufferers not actual sufferers themselves. Then you always have those judgemental ones who say in their stupid 3 step programmes about clients who still had problems after using their "cures" in 3 in steps or whatever bs they're trying to flog that it was the clients fault.
Some years ago I looked into a book like the secret it was Esther and hicks and wow did that f me up. I'm still suffering from that disgusting bs. Like I highly advise anyone with any sort of mental health problems not to read anything associated with the secret that stuff ****s with your mind until you start thinking like a machine.
I honestly lost faith in psychology and Ive got an appointment with one soon next month and I'm not looking forward to being judged by them, honestly they really don't give a **** they're just doing their jobs but I question their motives and abilities to actually understand someone else's problems before putting their realities infront of someone else's. How easy it should be because it's easy for them so this person must be A or B etc.
