"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I don't want to bring any negative issues to the board but it seems in the past year i got OCD. Now out of all the things i could have OCD about my OCD scares me out of doing physical things with girls. It's really horrible, and in public im seen as such a funny guy, smiling all the time. For the past year i have been trying to be strong, trying to tell myself the thoughts wern't real and to be a man about it. But these thoughts are really affecting me up to the point where i can't even have a sexually fantasy anymore. And now the thoughts are affecting my ability to talk to girls. I takes alot of my time because instead of having a clear head or doing other things with my time like finding a job or doing work. I spend almost every hour of my day trying to battle my thoughts. I tried every single thing, i tried to stop thinking about the thoughts, i tried to see them as neutral, i tried to stop fighting them, i tried to better understand them. But now it's beggening to become a problem because im getting tired of them altogether. I know i could be more comfortable and a stronger guy if i could overcome it. Anyone got any advice, anyone here ever had it. I'm planning to get counseling but im going to be sure to hide this from any girls i talk to. I told one a year ago and she seemed freaked out by it. :mad:
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Unlike a lot of other mental illnesses, there are some pretty effective drugs to treat OCD. Hell, I understand that Hallucinogenic mushrooms are a fairly good treatment.

As odd as it is I use it to clean my room and due to cleaning it like get out bleach and clean I am able to control it. Sad as it is I sometimes will make a mess to clean up to make my OCD stop. Seems to help.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

do you have compulsions to go along with the obsessive thinking?

I've had ocd my entire life. as far back as I can remember I've had it. I only realized it and got a diagnosis when I went through a very anxious period in my life, and once I knew for sure it was a "disorder" let me tell you it got 10 times worse.

my advice is try not to focus on the thoughts, they will come and go. work on bettering your mental state, meditation helped me a great deal as well as exercise. when you have reached a healthy state of mind your ocd will dissipate naturally.
