oh lord did I need this mini-video breakdown.. Yes you are right ahah this would create another paradox within itself of categorising as either "good thoughts, feelings" versus "bad thought and feelings must be mental illness thoughts and feelings" creating some sort of personal hell along with spitting off parts of ourselves known as alienation and demonising those parts which evidently makes it worse even though those parts were at times protecting us but also hurting us .. yeah you are right this an ocean and doesn't mean it is us as a whole -- Lets keep going my fellow OCD Survivors we can do it
Mark make a topic how to go through all these in a pressure exam or job ..because its way to difficult..when we did nothing the ocd haunts less for me...but in pressure and stress anxiety flares up...and how to be successful in life with all these..
Absolutely, so I'd actually look at what would even bring up an idea that uncertainty around relationship stuff would be different from any other uncertainty. There are usually some unhelpful beliefs or compulsions there, which is what gets us caught up doing compulsions around relationship stuff we're judging as different.
@@everybodyhasabrainI also have relationship based intrusions but I feel like there’s a valid reason why I look at relationship brain stuff differently than other brain stuff. I think it’s because relationships have a greater impact on my happiness and more uncertainty. Sure I’d be unhappy if I was poor (and misfortune can happen), but I’m at peace with the certainty I have that I’ll make the most of my skills to be financially independent. How can I see relationship brain stuff as just brain stuff when I prioritize relationships more in my life? Even before my current relationship (first of my life), I had anxiety related to the family dynamic after my sister came out
@AryanShahGamingMusic I'd first look at the beliefs around relationships and what you believe it means to prioritize something. There could be totally different beliefs that would be more useful, and different ways to understand prioritization
@@everybodyhasabrainThank you so much for replying but I’m really confused by what you mean by this 😭. It would be really helpful if you elaborated a bit
you are a very nice guy Mark 😊 thanks for the cool vids!
Thank you for the kind words!

Right I suppose any coping tells our brain we can't handle this experience, it is a bad thought / experience.
Yes. It's like searching for a way to cope with walking past some trash in the street.
Mark make a topic how to go through all these in a pressure exam or job ..because its way to difficult..when we did nothing the ocd haunts less for me...but in pressure and stress anxiety flares up...and how to be successful in life with all these..
I've discussed that topic often in livestreams.
Can u share once what were those advice.. actually didn't join some live streams
Love your content. Do you think this practice can also be applied to ROCD?
Absolutely, so I'd actually look at what would even bring up an idea that uncertainty around relationship stuff would be different from any other uncertainty. There are usually some unhelpful beliefs or compulsions there, which is what gets us caught up doing compulsions around relationship stuff we're judging as different.
@@everybodyhasabrain thank you Mark! I'll keep exploring :)
