How to Cope With OCD

I define a compulsion as anything a person does to cope with, check on or control anxiety uncertainty and other feelings they don't like. So I take a very, very broad perspective on it, but I find that so helpful because in terms of maintaining recovery, it puts this great buffer between me and OCD. And then inevitably, if I started doing all the normal compulsions again, I would, you know, want to go back into doing the OCD compulsion. That's an intensely unappetizing. Yeah.
