Psychotherapy for OCD - The Content of Your Thoughts

In psychotherapy for OCD, we actually don't care about the content of your thoughts. The more that we give into our compulsions, the stronger the compulsions become. We know that this circuit in our brain becomes hyperactive in people with OCD. And essentially what's going on here is that I have a thought. It leads to a particular action. Since the action relieves my mental stress, that behavior gets reinforced.
