Self-recovery from obsessive-compulsive disorder

Many people have some obsessive-compulsive disorder to a greater or lesser extent, and there are also many people in life who claim to suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder. In fact, the most important factor in distinguishing obsessive-compulsive disorder is that people with obsessive-compulsive disorder extremely hate inharmonious things. For them, messy books are not allowed to appear among a row of neatly arranged books. If you suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder, don't worry. Just make sure to maintain a happy mood and recover on your own, and you can return to normal life.

Obsessive compulsive symptoms have the following characteristics:

1. Usually the patient's own thoughts or impulses, not influenced or imposed by the outside world;

2. One's own thoughts or impulses always recur unpleasantly;

3. The act itself makes the patient feel unhappy, but if he does not do it, he will feel extremely anxious;

4. There must be at least one thought or action which the patient is still resisting in vain, even if other symptoms are not resisted.

How to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder yourself

1. Learn to go with the flow

People with obsessive-compulsive disorder often imagine a trivial matter as a huge event, or even a disaster. Therefore, when thinking about problems, patients should not get stuck in a rut, adapt to the environment instead of changing it, learn to enjoy the process, and not attach too much importance to the results. After trying your best, if you cannot change something, you will learn to go with the flow and experience the happiness that comes with the process.

2. Calm yourself

The patient's psychology is stimulated by some accidents, which affects all his activities for a period of time. In severe cases, it may even cause inner trauma, which requires a long time to heal. During this period of treatment, let yourself feel the tranquility brought by solitude, accept the facts of your own situation, and slowly get out of the predicament.

3. Train your mind to enhance your confidence

Try to use your own willpower to fight against compulsion, relax the tense and fearful mood, and tell yourself that this behavior is meaningless to distract yourself. At the same time, recognize and overcome your own character weaknesses, act decisively, and slowly train yourself to face it bravely.

4. Talk about your nervousness

Finding someone you trust the most and telling him or her about the hurt you have suffered in a certain situation or at a certain time in the past, pouring out all the unfortunate experiences, as well as your inner tension, anxiety, fear, etc. is a universal method to alleviate all psychological problems, and this method can often help you relax.

5. Don’t be too hard on yourself

Live for yourself, don't suppress yourself, don't pay too much attention to other people's opinions, consider your own feelings, and don't always have thoughts like "Am I doing well?", "Is it okay for me to do this?", "What will others think of me?", etc. If you are too picky about face and suffer in your life, you will be the one who suffers in the end.
