Yep. Although I don't see it as a major problem at the moment. I used the standard CBT techniques of challenging thoughts, exposure (not all that useful since my OCD is more obsessional than compulsive, relaxation techniques. Just understanding them for what they are helps a heck of a lot. My personal favorite is to make fun of the obsessions. Sing them to a silly tune at the top of my lungs. Talking about them helps too.

I still have my moments, mind you. But the severe ones come far less frequently.

Have you had any success with therapy?
