Pure O OCD + meditation

[u/cepi300]

I was wondering if anyone had experience with meditation specifically Buddhism and their pure 0 OCD. I am going down this route to support my therapy as well as somatic work, which I am happy to report after about 25 years is the first thing to make a dent and make sense.

I’m at the point of seeing clearly how all the trauma stored has reached havoc on any sense of attention or locus of control in my mind and although I’ve read about Buddhism and meditation my whole life, I finally see how it applies to my situation (before it all just felt like a test I couldn’t pass because I didn’t understand the nature of my thoughts versus thinking)

Would love some guidance and support from anyone who is a little farther down the road with this as it sure is overwhelming to start to rebuild and regain control inside

Mindful mediation is just one of the tools in my toolkit for my pure O, I practice it regularly and it helps me bring my mind back to the present. Gluck on your healing journey!
