TeenHelp - Incredible self-help for OCD

My fellow OCD fighters,

I would like to share with you an incredible resource I stumbled upon in the end of the October. It's a practical 4-step method designed by Dr Jeffrey Schwartz of UCLA that has helped thousands of OCD sufferers overcome our struggles. I've been religiously applying these 4 steps for the past 6 weeks almost, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that it has changed my life.

I had put up an earlier thread saying that my OCD had got to a point whereby I couldn't bear to do nothing about it anymore. I had decided to seek counselling with my university's therapists. Unfortunately, they assigned me a psychotherapist, and if anyone has been in the OCD battlefield for a field, you'll know that talk therapy is the least effective for OCD. What we need is cognitive behaviour therapy or exposure and response prevention. Now, these 4 steps came at a very opportune moment right around the same time as when my therapy sessions started, because otherwise, I would have been totally helpless. These 4 steps enable us to do CBT/ERP.

The best thing about the 4 steps method is that we can practise it on our own. It's designed to be a self-help tool. I know there is a lot of skepticism around self-help with mental health conditions, but this protocol is written by one of the world's leading OCD psychiatrists who has saved thousands (including mine) with this method. I don't know where I would be without it. It's quick simple and straightforward to follow. I even got his book "Brain Lock" which further goes into explaining these 4 steps. But it suffices to say that the link I've attached is by itself a great manual for these 4 steps. In fact, it can be applied to overcome other struggles as well, as is explained in his book.

Hence, without further ado, I want to share this with you, in hopes that it might be useful to someone else out there: https://hope4ocd.com/foursteps.php

Good luck!
