OCD Support

Living with obsessive thoughts or compulsive behaviors can feel like endlessly walking in a loop—no matter how many steps you take, it feels like you’re going in circles. You may find yourself stuck in cycles of doubt, repetitive actions, or intrusive thoughts that feel impossible to ignore. These patterns can take up hours of your day, impact your relationships, and leave you feeling frustrated, anxious, or ashamed.

Common experiences of OCD include:

• ​Repeated checking, counting, or organizing rituals
   

• Intrusive or unwanted thoughts that cause distress
   

• Feeling compelled to perform certain actions “just right”
   

• Mental rituals, such as replaying events or seeking reassurance
   

• Avoiding situations or people to prevent triggering obsessive thoughts
   

• Difficulty focusing on daily life because of persistent thoughts or urges
   

• Frustration, guilt, or shame about behaviors you feel you can’t control
