Feelings Aren't Facts - Especially When You Have OCD
Manage episode 493750154 series 3636479
It's common to think that if you don't feel happiness or peace, it means you have done something wrong and need to repent. Scrupulosity OCD can find tons of evidence for you to feel this way, and even though you can tell it's harmful for you to think this way, it feels so real!
In this episode, we talk about how to address when emotions feel like evidence, and feelings feel like facts. In addition, you'll hear about:
- Pema Chodron's quote, "Pain is not a punishment, pleasure is not a reward" and how it applies to Scrupulosity OCD
- Strategies for how to address OCD stories like the one mentioned above
- A healthier way to respond to your emotions
