Resistance to letting go of OCD??? Resistance to Letting Go of OCD
Just wondering if anyone else has sensed at times a reluctance to let go of the OCD. As miserable as it makes me and as desperately as I want to be free from it, when I sense an improvement and find myself feeling more mentallyh free of the obsessive thoughts, I "notice" and feel drawn back to them. I guess that makes sense in one way since OCD is actually a coping mechanism ... I'm reluctant to let go of it because of whatever it is I'm using it to cope with. Problem is I'm a very logical thinker so of course this sense of reluctance "tells" me that the OCD thoughts are real which is why I don't want to let go of them. Anyway, hope this makes sense ... would love to hear if others have experienced being drawn back to the OCD thoughts as they sensed improvement, and how they handled it. Thanks.
