To any anon struggling with OCD, what do you do when you notice yourself starting to ruminate?

When I start to ruminate, I go and start to urinate

You need to force a change of pace so that you occupy your mind and return to a more grounded mental state

this. OCD is unironically like being on psychedelics, there is some degree to which just redirecting your focus makes it go away, though obviously it's not always 100%

Just don't be a nagging bitch to others.

My ocd is pretty mild, luckily, ive noticed it gets bad when I’m stoned, alone and it quiet (like going to bed after smoking), which I suppose now sounds kinda obvious. I guess like others said, if you have somekinda distraction or stimulant, it should help some.
Doesn’t help when you’re trying to sleep tho.

Distractions and involvement. Don't let your mind spin on useless things.
