Episode 168 - What If Questions & The OCD Time Machine
Contact me for a free session, visit: www.robertjamescoaching.com
If you struggle with OCD then it can be very easy to get lost in questions about the past. To want to have a time machine and to go back and change things. To take up the missed opportunity or to live your time again with a better grip on OCD. This is just another tool that OCD uses in order to keep us stuck & the more we are able to disengage from this kind of thinking, the better.
