You Are Not Broken: Talking About the Fear Cycle

It’s easy to think we are when we don’t understand its just a fear cycle we haven’t yet learnt to get out of.

Thanks, Robert. I hope you know that you're doing great things.

to escape the fear cycle, i always told myself (amongst other things) that there are people out there who aren’t scared of what i am scared of, people who don’t have anxiety or depression or OCD, and that their brain is the same as mine in anatomy. so there has to 100% be a possibility to recover from OCD and to get rid of my anxiety, because the normal state of mind is actually healthy. that especially helped me in the beginning:)

Rob you are amazing, this group and your videos have helped me so much, I have suffered and been locked in for 30 years thinking I was mad, I'm on recovery, still a long way to go but at least I got on the train 😁

Hi Rob. I have overcome the fear of my ocd a few times. Completely accepting it and returning to a pre ocd state multiple times (over the last 7 years since it started) but then always falling back into being latched well and truly again. Sometimes I go months without it sometimes just a few weeks. Although I know what I need to do to be free from it each time it’s like I forget how to be accepting again, my brain just won’t do it. I have managed it in the past sometimes after months of being latched again but why does it take so long each time when I have overcome it time and time again? The ocd is always the same each time so I should surely be programmed to deal with it each time by now shouldn’t I? What are your thoughts on this?

Yes! Those bloody terminology, redundant!..
