Welcome to the OCD and Anxiety Podcast with Robert James, a seasoned coach who has lived through these challenges himself. In this episode, we explore the often-overlooked compulsion of rumination—a mental habit that feels productive but actually keeps us stuck in the obsessive-compulsive loop.
We delve into the nature of rumination, why it feels automatic, and how it deceptively presents itself as a means to figure things out. But rather than providing clarity, rumination only leads to further compulsions and deepens the cycle of OCD.
Robert shares insights on how to interrupt this mental spiral, challenging you to stop viewing rumination as a thinking problem and start seeing it as a behavioral one. By mastering the art of recognizing when you're caught in the loop and shifting focus to more value-driven actions, you can begin to manage OCD symptoms more effectively.
