Episode 26: I'm answering your questions about ROCD, trauma, transitions, unwanted thoughts, crushes, and more!

In today's episode, I'm answering questions that our Instagram audience submitted! Here's what I covered: 1. Why does the same theme of my ROCD come up over and over? 2. How to develop "right-sized" expectations in relationships without feeling like you're giving up? 3. I convinced myself that I don't have RA and that my feelings are the exception. Why? 4. I'm a bisexual girl in love with my girlfriend but I'd love to have sex with men. It makes me so upset because I want to be with her and not open my relationship. It makes me spiral. How do I break free without breaking up? 5. I'm so scared to look for a new job because all of a sudden I feel unworthy. What's happening? 6. What to do about unwanted thoughts about my ex. 7. What are good healing practices for pelvic floor trauma due to an assault? 8. How do I deal with my anxiety about how my partner looks when in public? 9. How to move forward when progressing in a relationship (engagement) when you aren't 100% ready 10. How do you get "over" RA once and for all? I keep having good months and then relapsing hard. 11. How do you deal with thoughts and feelings about no longer wanting to be with your partner? 12. Do you know if the fear of a certain pain/sickness can actually evoke that pain/symptom? 13. Do you ever regret being with someone who is different than you? 14. Why do people expect a relationship to be compatible from the start and not let it grow with time? 15. Can emotions of love come along the way or do they have to be present from the beginning? 16. Any advice for big transitions that is bringing up all the fear? 17. Could you speak a bit more about emotional pedestalisation? 18. I just turned 24. What advice do you have for someone in their 20s just starting to heal? 19.
