Listen to the podcast to hear how I learned this lesson, many times over, and then go take an SSRI or whatever your brain needs. You can still be an artist if you’re not tortured. Trust me.

🧠 OCD Recovery Tip:
Certainty is a trap. The more you chase it, the worse it gets.

Choose action despite doubt.
You don’t need answers — you need practice allowing uncertainty.

Checking to see if your symptoms are present is engaging with the problem. Once you truly stop caring if the symptoms/thoughts are there, you will no longer be checking for them, and you will begin to feel better. It takes practice, but you can do it.
