Discover How to Free Yourself From Your OCD and Take Back Your Life!
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
can devastate your life,
|
Does recurrent obsessive and distressing thinking interfere with your life but you can't suppress it no matter how hard you try? People have said OCD feels like a "brain itch" they just HAVE to scratch. | |
Do you frequently feel like you must perform tasks or rituals "correctly" such as in a certain order, a certain number of times, or with perfect symmetry? | |
Do you KNOW your obsessions and compulsions often don't really make sense but you STILL can't seem to stop them? | |
Are you overly focused on things like dirt or germs or other kinds of contamination that leads to compulsive cleansing such as frequent hand-washing or sanitizing? | |
Do you feel drawn to repeatedly check things such as door locks or appliances because you doubt yourself? Do you ever find yourself checking to make sure you didn't hurt someone? | |
Are you compelled to count things? | |
If you DON'T perform a task, ritual, or compulsion, do you worry that something bad will happen? | |
Is collecting or hoarding a problem in your life or do you struggle with other obsessive and compulsive disorders such as hair pulling (trichotillomania), Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), or hypochondria? | |
Do you ever get afraid that you're going to act out in an embarrassing or socially inappropriate way such as by suddenly shouting obscenities or doing something that goes against your morals and values? | |
Are you compelled to seek reassurance from people or engage in superstitious or impulsive behaviors? | |
Are you embarrassed or ashamed about your condition? |
The above is a just a small sample of some common symptoms of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. As you're going to discover, there's no reason you need to suffer with OCD, and you CAN take back your freedom and life.
What is Obsessive-Compulsive Behavior and when is it a problem?
You might have heard people described themselves as "obsessed" about a lot of things, like golf, cooking, or their career. You probably even know someone who has some compulsive or irrational behaviors like biting their nails when they're stressed out, or wearing their "lucky socks" for an important job interview. What's the difference between those types of obsessions and compulsions and a true problem like OCD?
If you found your way here and you're reading this, you probably already know the answer - the difference is the effect the obsessions and compulsions have on your life. When we talk about obsessions as they relate to Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, what we're really talking about is frequent and recurring thoughts that are unwanted and upsetting. Compulsions are the actions or rituals that you may perform in an attempt to reduce the horrible feelings your obsessions cause that can interfere with your normal life.
Here's how your OCD works and the ONE BIG REASON it can be so powerful...
If you struggle with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, you know how incredibly powerful and time-consuming it can be and how much it can seem to disrupt your entire life.
Although OCD is classified as an anxiety disorder, it can be very different than other fears, because what you're ultimately afraid of is very often unavoidable. If you have a fear of flying for instance, you can make the decision not to travel by plane, or at the very least, not do it very often. If you have a fear of heights, you can avoid ladders or balconies, and it's usually not going to have a very big impact on your daily life. But when you have a fear of your own obsessions and have your life ruled by your compulsions, it can be much different than those other fears that many people seem to be be troubled with. Why?
OCD can be so powerful and potentially devastating for one big reason.
When you have a problem with obsessions and compulsions, what you're ultimately afraid of....is YOUR OWN THOUGHTS.
And that can feel REAL frightening, because as fast as you run, no matter where or how you try and hide, you're always there. You become your own worst enemy and your compulsive behavior can feel like an itch in your brain you just HAVE to scratch. Just like everyone else I've ever met that has struggled with OCD I think you'll agree with me when I say that the harder you TRY to suppress your anxious and obsessive thoughts, the more IMPOSSIBLE IT IS!
Before I explain how I believe you can overcome your OCD, I want to be sure you understand how your OCD works, why you're not strange, crazy, or weak, and why what you're doing now may actually be making you WORSE...
First, let's clear something up. Struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder doesn't mean you're strange, crazy, or weak.. Most people with OCD are very intelligent and wonderful people, but their intrusive thoughts and impulses have hijacked their minds. You're anxious and acting in an obsessive and compulsive way because your anxiety has tricked you into associating whatever you're obsessing about with something that's dangerous and mislabeled it as a "threat" in your mind. Then it takes it a step further and convinces you that your compulsive behavior will make you feel better. It's a "one-two punch" that can quickly spiral into something that runs a large part of your life, but let's look closer at what's really going on...
Your obsessive and compulsive behavior is simply your mind's reaction to a message that isn't valid. When your brain perceives something to be a threat to your physical or emotional well-being, it does what it's supposed to do - it engages your internal alarm mechanism that signals you to do something protect yourself - no matter what!
But it's all a big mistake! A giant "mental misunderstanding".
Whenever you have a thought about something that makes you anxious, your mind can start obsessing about the thought and you can feel an overwhelming desire to avoid or escape the "threat" as your body and mind take drastic measures to keep you safe and out of harm's way.
This engages what is known as the "fight or flight" response, which commands your body to take massive and immediate steps to protect itself, regardless of whether the threat is actually valid!
The big problem is that what you're obsessing about can be completely overblown or not under your control anyway, and the compulsive behaviors that you perform as a means of stopping the obsessions or anxiety may not have any impact on the situation at all!
Your Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder doesn't occur on a rational or logical level, and that's CRITICAL to overcoming it...
This primitive self-preservation fight or flight response takes place in a part of your brain called the "R-complex", also called the reptilian brain. This reactive part of your brain doesn't use logic or critical thinking to make decisions, it just ACTS, which is why knowing that your obsessing isn't necessary and that your compulsive behaviors don't make sense usually doesn't matter. Your emotions in this part of your brain have little to do with your intellect or reasoning ability...the choice to get anxious, obsess, and take compulsive action isn't occurring on a rational level you can easily take control over.
Once this response is set in motion, within a fraction of a second, stress hormones such as adrenaline cascade through your body which cause symptoms such as racing and obsessive thoughts, an accelerated heartbeat, trembling, sweating, a strong urge to escape the situation or take some action to "fix-it" and more. Of course you know that this response isn't doing you any good since you're not in any actual danger, so you need to be taught how to train your mind to respond differently so it doesn't keep getting tricked into starting the fight or flight chain reaction when there's no need to.
Your OCD is a destructive CYCLE that can be BROKEN...
Let's slow things down and examine exactly what's happening with your OCD so you can see that it's a predictable cycle.
First, you think or feel something that makes you anxious. Maybe it's a flutter in your chest, a thought that makes you doubt yourself, a memory of something that happened in the past or may happen in the future, or anything else.
This anxiety triggers your fight or flight reaction which gets tricked into believing that a threat is present, and you begin to obsess about the thought or some other thought that has made you anxious before. Your mind is doing what it supposed to do - figure out what the threat is. The problem is that since nothing is REALLY wrong, it decides to relentlessly figure out what COULD or MAY be wrong and obsession can be the result!
Your mind wants to do SOMETHING to feel better, and it wrongly decides that engaging in your compulsive behavior will allow you to put an end to the anxiety you feel by "solving" the problem. Your brain is like a problem solving machine, which is fantastic when there's a real and solvable issue or threat, but it can be a disaster when there isn't.
Your obsessions and compulsions are what's known as "conditioned" responses.
Every time you even think about a situation that typically causes your OCD behavior, you recall how you responded the last time you were in the situation and your brain makes the assumption that if you considered it a threat IN THE PAST, it should react the same way NOW, and it engages the flight or flight response you learned about earlier and the destructive cycle that causes you to obsess and perform compulsive behavior begins once again. Your OCD is the result of this ongoing cycle of anxious thoughts, obsessions, and compulsions that have been repeated and learned...
Your Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder gets stronger the more you "practice" it... you need to teach yourself SOMETHING NEW.
This "learning" of OCD or any other conditioned behavior is thought to be accomplished by the formation of "neural pathways" in your brain. Every time you experience the anxiety which causes your obsessive and compulsive behavior, you form ADDITIONAL neural pathways that strengthen your anxious response, resulting in a faster and more severe reaction of anxiety or even panic that makes it highly likely you'll continue to react in the same way in the future. You can actually "train" yourself to have OCD!
It might be difficult to believe that YOU are mistakenly reinforcing your OCD, so let's look at how you learned to do something else that has now become second nature...
Think back to when you first learned how to ride a bike.
When you were in the early stages of learning, you had to focus very intently to what you were doing, and you may have even fell down and scraped a knee a few times while attempting to maintain your balance as your brain learned and formed the neural pathways required for bicycle riding.
As you continued to practice, those neural pathways grew more powerful and multiplied, and you fell less frequently as you learned how to make the many minor adjustments to balance required for cycling. When you think about it, riding a bike is pretty complex...you need to constantly balance, steer, pedal, and pay attention to where you're headed, all at the same time!
Even though it's complicated, rather quickly, you learned to ride a bike without conscious thought, the countless reactions and coordination needed became instinctual and you no longer had to "think" about how to ride...you just DO IT.
To this very day, many years or even decades later, you could get on a bike and ride away easily, even if you hadn't ridden a bike since grade school! All because of the wonderful neural pathways you formed a long time in the past...
In a similar way, as you form additional neural pathways in your mind about your obsessions and compulsions by repeating them, you make your negative reaction more automatic, more deeply entrenched in your brain, until that reaction can occur virtually without thought. This is why your OCD now seems so much a "part of you" and why the anxiety you feel can come on so incredibly quickly and powerfully, and why often will-power alone isn't nearly enough to overcome it.
Doesn't it make sense that the key to overcoming your OCD would be to replace your incorrect and destructive neural pathways with new, better, and more accurate neural pathways of confidence and calm?
Here's how I think you can do exactly that...
Now you understand why what you may have tried before hasn't worked, and why overcoming your OCD isn't a matter of "will-power"...
Everything that we've been discussing occurs on a very primitive and instinctual level and is why I believe so many treatments and therapies for OCD fail. They try to fix a problem with an emotional origin on a logical level....how could that possibly work?
Traditional talk therapy will usually try to "convince" or explain to you why you don't need to be anxious, obsessive, or giving in to your compulsions and that you should just relax. Let me ask you, are you CHOOSING to obsess? Haven't you ALREADY tried to quiet your mind? Do you think you just need another explanation about how your compulsions don't REALLY help you? Do you really think that what you need is a therapist to explain to you why having OCD doesn't make logical sense and you'll feel better?
I didn't think so.
Like you learned, once it's set in motion, your instinctual response of fear can be virtually out of your control and can easily convince your mind that obsessing and compulsions are needed! Will-power, positive thinking, and endless rational discussion often won't stop your anxiety any more than you can talk yourself out of a headache. You need to learn to stop the anxiety that sets off the destructive OCD cycle that makes you so miserable BEFORE it starts.
I developed an easy to follow, step-by-step system for overcoming your Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder that I'm confident can finally help you get back the life you deserve...
My name is Rich Presta, and for many years I used to suffer with extreme and debilitating anxiety and fear that prevented me from living my life to the fullest. I had limitations on myself, struggled through my days, and hid my internal battle from everyone I knew because it made me feel so weak, different, and ashamed.
I eventually overcame what was holding me back, but it took way too long and by the time I did the "best years" of my life were long gone. I made it my life's mission to share all that I learned about how to overcome anxiety and fear so no one has to suffer needlessly like I did for so many years. My programs have been used successfully by individuals all around the world and have been seen in Psychology Today and Natural Health magazines, as well as on Discovery Health channel, MSNBC, CNN, and more.
I worked with Dr. Cheryl Lane PsyD, a Doctor of Clinical Psychology, to develop a step-by-step system that I believe can help you destroy the very core of the cycle that perpetuates your OCD, so it never has to hold you back from your life again. It's not about "coping" with your condition...that never made ANY sense to me. You don't want to COPE with your OCD, you want it GONE.
It's not about taking addictive or dangerous medications that only hide the symptoms of the TRUE problem. It's not about phony New Age cures, hypnosis, affirmations, or other nonsense that often does NOTHING to help you overcome your OCD.
Instead, I'm going to show you how I believe you can go to the source of your anxious response that has become habitual and automatic and CHANGE IT. In fact, I'm so confident in the incredible results you can experience with what I've developed that if you don't agree it's completely life-altering, then I don't want you to pay for it.
It's called the OCD Rescue Program, and it was developed for people just like you who are tired of struggling with their Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and want to lead different and better lives.

Let me answer some questions you may have...
By this point, you know how your mind got "tricked" into thinking what you experience when you get anxious is dangerous and that your anxiety is actually CAUSING YOUR CYCLE OF OBSESSIONS AND COMPULSIONS. You also know that you only have to learn how to teach it a new way of interpreting and reacting to those feelings in order to put your OCD behind you.
We've talked about how leaving your OCD untreated can actually make it worse and a more deeply established part of your automatic and instinctual response, and how much better and easier your life can be when your OCD and self-imposed limitations are replaced by confidence and peace of mind. Now that we've removed so much of the "mystery" about your OCD and what causes it, you're probably feeling that conquering it is more realistic and achievable than ever, and that's fantastic, BECAUSE I BELIEVE IT CAN BE.
You understand that The OCD Rescue Program is completely natural, so you won't need to risk addiction or dangerous side effects by taking drugs to try and manage your thoughts and feelings. You'll be in control of yourself and your body, not numb and sedated.

There really is nothing more I think you could ask for...
But maybe you're still a little unsure whether or not the program can work for YOU.
Perhaps you've already read other books about OCD or even tried therapy, and even though you know that the OCD Rescue Program is far different than anything you've ever tried, you're still just not sure.
I understand exactly how you feel, but I'm not going to let that get in the way of you overcoming your OCD and changing your life. I flat out REFUSE to let you struggle needlessly just because I didn't make it easy enough to get started with the program.
So I'm going to make sure there's absolutely NO REASON for you to suffer with your condition even one more day...
I'm confident that The OCD Rescue Program
can CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
In fact, I guarantee it will or you won't pay a PENNY...
I know you've already tried other things to help. I understand why you may even be a little skeptical, I really do. Let me be clear, The OCD Rescue Program isn't a "magic bullet" or "miracle cure" and I think it would unethical to present it as such. It's going to take effort and dedication on your part too and because of that there's no way I can predict with absolute certainty what your individual results will be. That's why I'm going to let you study the program, take plenty of time to try it out, and make up your own mind, on your terms. If it's not everything I say it is and MORE, I don't deserve your money.
That's more than a guarantee - that's my personal promise.
Here's what you need to remember...
I worked with Dr. Cheryl Lane, a Doctor of Clinical Psychology, to develop the OCD Rescue Program because I know how terrible it is to live with limitations and feel scared of your own thoughts and hopeless. I've been there. But I also know how wonderful it is to say good-bye to your fears for good. I want you to know too. | |
You can use and evaluate The OCD Rescue Program for a full 60 days and THEN decide what you think. If you don't LOVE IT, you won't pay for it, it's that simple. | |
Do the research yourself and see how widely recommended the program is, read what others think about it, and then decide for yourself. I'm convinced that if you do your homework, the choice is obvious. | |
You'll learn our incredible four step technique that almost no one figures out on their own... that's incredibly simple to master and can often allow you to QUICKLY shut down your fear so your body and mind can relax and do what it's supposed to. | |
There's no new age mumbo jumbo, hypnosis, or ridiculous exercises to do, just advanced and cutting edge methods that worked for me and many others, and I think you'll find can work for you too. | |
The program costs less than a single session with most therapists (and good luck getting them to offer a guarantee)! | |
You can access the program immediately and privately from the comfort of your home. You can be started in the next 5 minutes. |
You can change your life for less than you probably spent on your last pair of sneakers.
It's important to me that help is within reach for everyone that needs it, so even though other programs can cost several hundred dollars for material I wouldn't consider half as complete or nearly as effective, I've decided to make the OCD Rescue Program incredibly affordable so not a single person needs to continue to suffer needlessly with their condition.
The entire program which includes everything we've talked about and is completely guaranteed, can be yours for only a single payment of only $97.
