Robert James explains how chasing certainty and seeking reassurance actually strengthens OCD and keeps anxiety returning.

He shares five practical shifts you can use right away: notice the certainty hunt, stop feeding it with attention or reassurance, allow discomfort without solving it, return to what matters, and practice postponement and small reductions of compulsive behaviors.

Over time these steps build tolerance to uncertainty, weaken OCD’s hold, and help you reclaim your life
