Washing

[phil06]

I've had an OCD recently where I need to rewash my washing in the machine twice as I worry it's not been washed or not enough powder.

Anybody else had this worry? Even a second wash I did today I worried it wasn't washed

I don't have any contamination issues in my OCD but the endless checking, rechecking, etc was found in many ways throughout my OCD.

I worked on reduction through the ERP style but just couldn't get that to work in certain circumstances. Instead I tried to do something as a check once but take over the thoughts by stating I am choosing to do this, it's not out of my fear.
This did work with these ones.

Recuction of overall anxiety levels plays a good part in this earlier on. Later on you feel like you have more say in whether to do something, take control or let it pass.
