OCD, Fear, Control and Exposure Therapy

I want to address a question about exposure therapy to bring out how to work through control issues and the fear that drives control. OCD is rooted in control issues, which are driven by fear. Letting go of control is essential for facing fears and experiencing greater freedom. Exposure therapy, where individuals confront their fears without giving in to compulsions, is a helpful tool in the healing journey.

I will address the 7 distortions and how they influence the OCD struggle. There is a heavy responsibility that impacts Christian OCD strugglers, where some carry a burden of feeling responsible for others' salvation. In this broadcast, I want to emphasizes the importance of recognizing that the weight of the world is not on one's shoulders and that sharing the gospel should be done without compulsive behavior.
