  281- I Overshared, What Do I Do, And Forgiving Myself For These Thoughts

  Aug 10, 202650 min

  Today I’m answer two questions. Anxious Questioner wants to know how to handle a situation where they shared some details about their OCD and now they are worried it has changed the way the other person views them, and they want to know what to do. To answer this, I do offer some direct advice, but I also go over some solid guidelines on how, when, and why to share details about your obsessions, if you share them at all. Diane asks the next question. She wants to know how to let go of the content of the thoughts to get on with her life. Scrupulosity has gripped her after a rough medical patch that has left her struggling with unnamed thoughts that stop her from looking at people or sitting next to them. I discuss ways to give herself forgiveness and offer some exposure advice!

  #277- Rhinotillexomania And Picking The Right Treatment

  Jun 28, 202647 min

  Pick Me reached out to me to ask a question about picking (every pun intended) the right treatment for their Rhinotillexomania, or compulsive nose picking. I discuss the differences between OCD treatment and the treatment approaches for Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors, or BFRBs. I share a ton of ideas for competing behaviors and behavioral blockers, and if you watch the YouTube video, you will see a bunch of fidget examples, or you can hear me describe them.

  #271- Am I, Or Am I Not, What My Obsession Says I am?

  May 11, 202634 minS0

  <p >Today’s question was a bit of a tricky one, and deserves a tricky answer. There seems to be a mix of responses across the internet about whether you are what you fear. Some people saying, “No, you are not your fear and your fear is evidence of it not being you because obsessions are ego-dystonic.” Whereas some people say, “Yes, the obsession could be you,” and even fewer saying “Yes, you are what your fear says you are.” But what if the content of the obsession did not even matter, and trying to answer the question conclusively was a waste of tim...

  #270- Treating Religious Scrupulosity With ICBT, feat. Claire Breedlove, LCSW

  May 4, 20261 hourS0

  <p >For today’s episode, Claire Breedlove, LCSW, joined me to talk about her work treating Religious Scrupulosity among the Latter Day Saints (LDS) population. Claire joined me on episode #189 where she discussed her work in general, but on this episode we do a deeper dive into her use of Inference Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT). This was a fun conversation to look at the differences between ICBT and the traditional ERP/ CBT treatment methods for Religious Scrupulosity and why Claire has shifted her practice to primarily ICBT. Even if you aren’t LDS, but still struggling with Religious Scrupulosity OCD...
