October 23, 2023 THE GUILT TRAP: UNDERSTANDING OCD & ITS EMOTIONAL IMPACT
THE GUILT TRAP: UNDERSTANDING OCD & ITS EMOTIONAL IMPACT

In this episode, I reflect on some of my blog posts from 2010,
particularly those centered around the theme of guilt. I express amazement at
how certain aspects of my feelings have remained consistent over time. These
feelings of guilt revolve around various individuals in my life, including my maternal
and paternal grandmothers, my father, and a minister from a previous church. I
recount the countless hours, days, and years spent feeling responsible for the
well-being and happiness of these individuals. However, I’ve now reached a
point where these feelings of guilt have largely faded from my present-day
consciousness.
I believe that we should listen to our current selves when we
experience guilt and recognize that these feelings are temporary, urging us not
to let them occupy unnecessary mental space. However, implementing this practice
is challenging!

September 18, 2023 OCD UNLOCKED: STRATEGIES FOR EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT

In this brief episode, I explore the topic of journaling
and reflecting on your personal journey with OCD. I mention an old blog I
had forgotten about and highlight the progress I’ve made in dealing with OCD.
The main focus of the episode is on the value of documenting obsessions and
rituals through journaling. This practice is seen as a means to gain insights
into one's past experiences with OCD, their current situation, and their aspirations
for the future in terms of managing the condition.
