I know I am not a bad person but my brain continues to fight with me everyday and honestly I feel like it’s winning . I’m jus afraid of thinking subconsciously that I am

[@ElizabethGonzalez-jt7ns]

Ash Bien ... you’re not alone sis

[@borninjordan7448]

Me too.

[@coltonlarson2841]

You are seriously a savior! I’ve been battling depression/anxiety/OCD for a month now. It seems like it all hit at once. Your videos are the only way I get through the day.

[@borninjordan7448]

Sorry to hear that, bro. Hope you're doing OK. I've been through the same.

[@xx-zh8wy]

THANK YOU. Im 16 and just started therapy for my ocd. your videos make me feel way less alone and it helps when you can laugh about the ocd thoughts, your videos make me smile and laugh at my ocd bullshit. thank you so much seriously

[@tylermikol8145]

Pure O stole the last 15 years of my life. I’m 30. It’s brutal. It’s no doubt distorted the view I have of myself. I’ve been trying to break things down with humor so I’ve been joking that OCD makes me look at myself through poop colored glasses.. lol This is powerful stuff Chrissie. Thanks so much. My hope is growing which actually makes me wanna cry. HOPE! What is that?

[@tylermikol8145]

“Why do I feel like I’m behind in life, why do I feel like I’m damaged goods”? You hit the nail on the head chrissie....

[@rosiespaniel9941]

im so sorry you had to go through that and suffer for so long:(( are you doing any better now?? i hope so💖

[@bala1000mina]

Thank you so much Chrissie, very inspiring video for me! Thanks for illuminating the tough route of those who suffer from OCD for better recognition of the issue and healing sooner! God bless you!

[@lavarp1613]

Thank you I love your videos sometimes better than therapist.

[@ChrissieHodgesPureOCDAdvocate]

Hey Lavar! Have you found an OCD therapist yet? Check out Dr. Phillipson's center at ocdonline.com if you can!

[@lavarp1613]

Chrissie Hodges/Pure OCD Advocate yes I found a place I think I'll have to call monday because no one returned my call.

[@layceelay5382]

I've had a huge problem with intrusive thoughts ever since my I was littler and my mom told me not to look at the sun. since then, I've dealt with intrusive thoughts of running in front of semis, harming people, rape, incest, pedophilia, letting the devil crawl inside me, and spiders. the list goes on. I love your videos and I do kinda wanna buy your book. I live near sloans lake in the Denver area if you ever wanna help me in person. i love your personality as a therapist as well as your extensive knowledge on the subject.

[@madelinestevens9758]

Laycee Lay same

[@ElizabethGonzalez-jt7ns]

Laycee Lay ... I have the incest one. It’s fkn hardddd. How do you cope?

[@rebzeb5814]

Thanks Chrissie. Once again, you hit the nail on the head. It's such a hard battle - us pure OCDers need to support each other as we're the only ones who truly understand the shit this illness puts us through. Thanks for being such an incredible beacon of hope.

[@Julia-2709]

Thank you so much for one of the best, most touching and insightful videos about ocd I have ever seen .I never felt more understood in my life.

[@L0VEisAmixtape]

🥹😭❤ PREACH!!!! Thank you for keeping it real about this process of recovery not actually being this nice clean road and all the other stuff. Thanks

[@Angie_bae]

I lost friends and boyfriends over this. I don’t care that they are gone. Even if I feel hurt I need to move on. I got one friend and a good boyfriend left. I need to make sure I don’t lose those.....but I probably won’t because they are amazing

[@winnmarr6840]

She is speaking my mind, she is in it. Feel everything she says. Thanks

[@johnntanya]

Hi Chrissie. I just found this video of yours today, and it feels as if you were speaking to me directly. Pretty much every feeling that you’ve mentioned in this video is where I am at right now and have been for the past year and a half. Thank you for sharing.

[@riverogue13]

Thank you so much for your advocacy and bravery!

[@Alex-iq3hj]

Sometimes I feel like I have no insight over my thoughts :(... How do you recognize your thoughts when it all seems so real that it''s scary? Great video though! I feel this on a spiritual level.

[@Rose_Blue87]

[@outofbraincells]

Thank you so much!! I need advice, how this process of grieving looks like/how to go through this? I have a problem of understanding my own emotions since I remember so I really don't know how to do this

[@fernandorensi]

Fantastic!

[@MarianaFFFernandes]

This is a very important topic, thank you! I feel that many times, that I am behind, that I will never reach the level of a person without ocd, romantically, socially, in my job... It sucks! And I hate some decisions I have made based on believing in my thoughts. Strenght for all! :)

[@stephentreanor5044]

Omg this is so me my self esteem is so low at the moment 😥 I’m getting better but it’s so fucking low at the moment and it does feel so real at times, it’s horrible

[@stephentreanor5044]

And I’ve got to say, I love you Chrissie I think you’re absolutely fucking amazing mate. Xx 😊

[@elenalockett7226]

I’m so scared :(

[@ChrissieHodgesPureOCDAdvocate]

I'm sorry to hear that. There is help available. through ERP therapy. (Exposure Response Prevention Therapy). OCD is very scary, but it is a treatable illness.

[@avaxxx2739]

Hello chrissie, I struggle with hocd, at least I think I do. Is it normal that I constantly need attention? Like I need people to notice me. The way I walk, make my friends jelous etc. I'm really scared about it.

[@dillonandrews1135]

All places who does erp does not take insurance at least in my area .

[@coinguy5684]

I have pure ocd thoughts about looking at my face and looking threw my eyes is this normal ?

[@ChrissieHodgesPureOCDAdvocate]

Sometimes people will refer to these as 'somatic obsessions'. You may want to look up some info about it. Try www.ocdbaltimore.com.

[@coinguy5684]

Chrissie Hodges/Pure OCD Advocate thank you do you have any advice to help me

[@coinguy5684]

Chrissie Hodges/Pure OCD Advocate I can be very distressing and feels so real

[@Idontlikethatshit.]
