Reacting to compulsions

[DanGrim89Participant]

Hi I react badly to compulsions, and it is getting so that I’ve noticed that avoiding the thoughts and compulsions is of no use. I try to talk back against my intrusive thoughts, but I’m fighting against them. My life is about not doing things to avoid these compulsions, its no way to live.
