He feels overwhelmed at the moment i keep telling him to take time and he can get through it. I have no experience with OCD.

Does he have a therapist? Pdoc? Medication? Every OCD is different. My husband has OCD and in his case unless he performs the compulsion and gets whatever he is obsessing about under control, there is nothing you can say or do that stops it. I mean there are some strategies he learned in therapy but I mean again what works for one person doesn’t work for the other. What’s his OCD about?
