A Teacher's Review: Overcoming OCD and Anxiety with GO-EN
I used to worry a lot about whether I was doing things right, and I kept checking everything over and over. I spent so much time at work double-checking, and even at home, I wasn’t sure if I had really checked everything.I couldn’t sleep until I made sure the next day that nothing went wrong. Since I started coaching with GO-EN, I’ve been checking less,and I’ve started to feel less anxious about the things I do. Before my first session, I thought I was going crazy feeling this way, but now, when anxiety comes up, I can recognize it and accept it a bit more.

What is OCD?
Obsessions are repeated, persistent, and unwanted thoughts, urges, or images that are intrusive and cause distress or anxiety. You might try to ignore or eliminate them by performing a compulsive behavior or ritual.
These obsessions typically intrude when trying to think of or do other things.
Spending your time to get rid of your uncomfortable thoughts and feelings like fear and anxiety might reduce the valuable time in your life. Obsessive habits such as repeated checking, organizing, and asking your family for reassurance,” Am I OK? ” It doesn’t give you lasting relief, just a brief respire. You might think stopping these compulsions will not help because you believe they reduce your uncomfortable thoughts. However, as you know, the relief these compulsions give is only temporary.
The OCD thoughts will come back in the same situations.
Are you struggling with these problems?
Cleaning and Washing
You might fear being contaminated by touching objects that others have used. So you keep on sanitizing things again and again.
Checking
On some occasions, you check doors and windows to make sure they have been locked. Or you continually check the stove to make sure it is off. You cannot leave the office until everything is complete, or else you will get fired!
Harm
In some cases, when driving, you suddenly imagine you might have hit someone. So you check your surroundings or ask passengers if something happened. You might even check the local news about any car accidents.
You might also ask other people whether you were the wrong person.
Ordering and Arranging
When you see specific numbers, such as 13, 17, or 666, you feel a compulsion to say a prayer or special phrase.
Next, second-guess yourself on everyday things, such as simple mathematical problems or phrases.
These unwanted thoughts, images, and urges strongly drive anxiety, disgust, and fear.
And then you hyper-fixate on them.
“Am I a good person? Did I do something wrong?”
”Am I safe? How is my family?”
”Did I lock the doors and windows? Or not? What if I didn't?”
Obsession over unwanted thoughts may impede the enjoyment of your day. Maybe you wanted to be with friends, go to school or relax. However, your OCD thoughts may hold onto you.
What is the difference between normal anxiety or OCD symptoms?
When you feel normal anxiety, you get relief after you have locked the door in your home and even if you go back home to make sure whether it was closed or you only need to don’t once.
If you have OCD, You might have intense anxiety before you lock the door, and once you have locked it, you return home again and again. However, even if you check the lock repeatedly, your anxiety does not go away. So you might replay the action over and over in your head. You might go back home and check, ask someone like your family member who you trust to do it instead of you.
How will you help yourself from OCD suffering?
The most effective treatments for OCD are Exposure and Response Prevention(ERP) and medication.
Exposure and Response Prevention(ERP)
ERP is the gold standard treatment for OCD. ERP is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) that was developed specifically to treat OCD and is backed by decades of clinical research.
ERP works by carefully exposing people to situations that trigger their obsessions and then helping them resist the urge to engage in compulsions as a result.
In time, this process teaches them to sit with the discomfort and anxiety that comes from obsessions without resorting to compulsions that may provide short-term relief but perpetuate the OCD cycle and make it worse over time.
In our coaching, we will find and produce ERP steps that cater to your needs. And then you can try these ERP steps to aid you when your OCD is triggered. Our online therapy Go-EN will help you take these steps away from the controlled environment of a hospital or coaching room to the places that trigger your OCD for example, restaurants, schools shops etc!
What is Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)？
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
ACT may also be effectively paired with ERP to treat OCD. The American Psychological Association recognizes ACT as an evidence-based practice for OCD.
ACT can help people with OCD develop psychological flexibility, or the ability to enter and respond to potentially stressful situations, that can help them in the OCD recovery process. While you challenge your OCD with ERP, you will feel intense fear or anxiety. ACT will help you while facing your fears.
The goal of ACT is to help you be more flexible in how you respond to thoughts and feelings. ACT has many exercises to help you decide how you want to live your life. These exercises motivate and reduce symptoms through six core paths (acceptance, cognitive diffusion, values, committed action, present moment, and self as context).
In our coaching, you will learn these ACT exercises to support you when you are struggling with OCD.
Remember, you have the power to choose your path to recovery.
About Medications
Medications
Whether you use medication or not, it's crucial to engage in a collaborative discussion with your medical provider. While I can not prescribe medication as I am not a medical provider, I can certainly share our coaching information with your medical provider, should you wish.
When we combine ERP therapy with taking medication, the results aremore significantr symptom reduction.
