Is it an OCD thought or not? This questions can be very hard for a lot of people with OCD. It's almost as if trying to get to the bottom of whether a thought is OCD is the most pressing one of all. 

But learning to let go of this incessant search for certainty is an essential skill for overcoming OCD. Today I discuss my struggles with trying to work out if a thought is OCD or not and how I try to let this go. 

I hope you enjoy and find it helpful.
