persistence

June 30, 2021

I struggle with contamination related OCD, and one of the main ways to treat it is by exposing yourself to the things that make you anxious and preventing yourself from doing what you want to that will make you feel better (like washing your hands). Its a constant fight, and my Zox strap Persistence is a visual reminder to keep going and to push myself even when I want to give in and say its too hard, I'll do it later. My strap means so much to me. Just a couple days ago, it helped inspire me enough to make myself get out of the car and go into the building instead of letting my anxiety overcome me and just drive back home.
