This guy gets it! Do NOT get tired of making these videos - they're great!

My OCD kept telling me that something's bad gonna happen in your future life, so I told it that you are right, that's why I'm gonna enjoy these present moments as much as possible.

I would say that It is in control now. Mostly I don't prevent my thoughts from coming and I also don't try to seek reassurance for the obsessive thoughts. Try to agree with the thoughts and accept the risk. The main focus is to embrace the uncertainty.

@@sadiamomtaz333 when I try to disengage i become more hyper aware of the thoughts and sensations, and I feel powerless against them. Being mindful feels ingenuine/forced and like I’m trying to distract myself from the issue my brain wants to focus on. Did you experience this too?

You'll notice a spot where you become aware that the OCD is affecting you, and and hitting that spot refused to engage or satiated in any way it'll cause you to be in emotional stress but that is one of the ways to walk off from the OCD issues

i hate how fucking ocd always changes the fears, i stand up to it, it loses power then it transforms into somethng slightly diferent and bam i am back at square one :/

Hi Nathan, I just wanted to tell you how much these videos have helped me. I had a crisis of anxiety/OCD recently, was in a CONSTANT state of anxiety that I hadn’t experienced in over a decade. I discovered your videos and it gave me some tools that I will continue to come back to, and your humor is EXTREMELY effective!!! Thank you SO much for this! Please keep going!

Ive often thought of OCD being a bully. You illustrated this well.

You made me aware of something I've been suffering from for years. I knew something was wrong with me, but I was scared that others wouldn't understand. I will fight this. Thank you so much!!

Not being a butt, but EVERYONE has intrusive thoughts. It's just people that OCD they tend to get stuck. NOTHING is wrong with YOU! Watch his video about treating the OCD like a bully. It takes awhile, but if you try to fight OCD it gets stronger. Ignore it over time and it gets weaker.

Wow! I literally found out there’s a name for something that has been going on for a while! No one but ourselves know the struggles we face each day. Thank you for this video, it’s so awesome!

Unless we are willing to tell someonelse about them which might be hard to do

This was hard not gonna lie. Everytime a thought says that I’m gay or bi, I’ll say “ok, whatever” and I feel like my thought was saying “Ha, you just admit that it this or that”. Feels so weird tho. I don’t know if I really do have OCD, but I do have anxiety. Gonna talk to my therapist about these thoughts again. Anyway thank you and thanks for helping people.

Thats what ocd does, its a bully. Its gonna keep convincing you until you become a boss. I'm no professional but all I'll say is just accept the thoughts as they are. They aren't actions, they aren't something you would ever do, they are just in your brain, we're all human. Even my mom gets intrusive thoughts, we all do. Just people with ocd including myself make it seem like a big deal. Just stand up to ocd like its a bully, don't ignore it, don't push it away. Don't overthink Like let me just say if I get a crazy thought about me flying or blowing something up with my hands? Would that really happen? Heck no, thats just our brains. We either have good/weird/disturbing thoughts. Our brain just makes up weird ideas in our heads

This was great! My therapist talks about standing up to the bully all the time but hasn’t brought in the specifics like these ERP examples. I am going to ask them in the next sessions if we can work on some specifics so I can better stand up to the bully

Thanks a lot man, keep making these videos. Just subscribed.

You are my life saver 💖, you understand the struggle perfectly

Your videos have borderline saved my life. Thank you.

Your ocd videos are so amazing! I am talking to a guy with ocd and this is so helpful! I want to support him and help him manage this. I know the ocd isn’t him and he always ask why I stick with him but I know he is totally worth it! He deals with all of this stuff (in fact I’m sending him this video so he knows other people deal with this too and it is just the ocd bully!) and he just started exposure and response therapy and while it sucks it seems to be helping! Again, thank you so much for your videos! They are really helping me get a better understanding of ocd

Thank you so much for this❤😢 I've been struggling so much recently and you just helped me gain back perspective.

Thank you for the helpful materials! God bless!

Thank you I have been struggling alot these past few months between OCD ptsd and the loudest lately Depression, you advise is valuable so thank you

Thank you soo much 🥺🥺 I did that after watching your videos and it really helps💯💯

Really happy I found this site. I've been managing OCD the past decade and it seems to have gotten worse lately maybe due to pressure, stress and other factors. I know I can control it with some "positive" influence and self-help sites. Thank God for your videos. I seem to have improved a bit. One step at a time.

These videos are brilliant!!!!! So helpful

“You are so much stronger than you think you are” !!! Thanks Nathan. I feel so hopeless when I have so many inteusive thoughts attacks and totally get out of balance and feel desperate and weak to overcomw this..

If we stand up to them successfully they eventually slink away. Just watching your video has given me hope to say you know what OCD your right and I don't even care!!!!!!

Great video!

Your videos are great. Keep making these videos!!

Watching these videos amidst an ocd crisis is a good way to put things in perspective. Hearing him talk about detailed examples helps me grasp that its made up so the threats don't seem as real

Thanks for the video Nathan !

Thanks. These videos have really helped me.

I really enjoy your videos. Thanks!

Excellent! I’m going to try this.

Your videos have been a lifeline as I’ve just started standing up to the bully...it is the scariest thing I’ve ever done but all the examples you give are SO HELPFUL to make me not feel like I’m crazy but just need to teach my little brain a new way to be in these areas that I’ve kept under lock and key for so long! Makes me want to cry! Thank you! 🙏🏼😭

Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏼

Thank you for this video. Just watching and listening to you made me feel better and a little more relieved. I definitely intend to stand up to this bully. Not going to let it keep control.

Your videos are really helping me thankyou

Thanks so much ....I feel so lost and powerless sometimes ..I pray like a hundred times a day ...it's a difficult life

THANKS THANKS THANKS I was literally doing the opposite things with the bully in my head 😮

Wow this is helping a lot!!

To all the bullies in my life - you are absolutely RIGHT to say those things to me.

Great video.. great saying. Are you using acceptable and commitment ideas etc? Good how you label ocd (ruminating, worrying, anxiety) as the bully.

You are awesome.. Thank you for the help.. ❤❤

You should make a video on ocd thoughts that cause stress or anxiety symptoms. For example, what if you have self harm internally and stress yourself out from a thought such as “why am I not freaking out right now, why am I calm?” Also, questioning one’s reality. those type of ocd thoughts where you break down philosophical questions and can’t answer them exactly and you become obsessive. Your tips help with this, but to focus for a second on this type of ocd would be extra helpful. Good job!

Yes I wanna do this. Wanna be the boss finally. And I hope everybody Else Will too. ❤️🙏

Thank you so very much for these videos . what a blessing too see these , very helpful .
