Getting Better

Don't ever forget that you have every right to find and choose the tools that you'll need to manage your OCD. Once you've learned what's available, use the tools that work best for you and give them your time and energy. It may be that mindfulness isn't what allows you to make peace with your OCD. I started practicing mindfulness with the intention of helping make things a little bit better. Four years have passed since and I continue to practice mindfulness but now with a new goal, to make OCD go away. I think it's possible. It's not going to happen overnight and may take years but I'm okay with that. Not doing anything and having nothing change is a far worse alternative. We are capable of so much more than we'll ever give ourselves credit for.
