  Hey guys, today's podcast really small like simple one.
• 0:06
  I wanted to do kind of like a more off the cuff like just
• 0:11
  conversation with you guys. So this one's all about OCD.
• 0:14
  So I recently uploaded a vlog on my YouTube channel talking
• 0:17
  about. Oh and if you don't know
• 0:19
  anything about my YouTube channel, it's just youtube.com
• 0:22
  forward slash of the aspie world a spie world and basically
• 0:27
  talking about OCD right and how I managed to overcome one of my
• 0:30
  oh CDs so OCD like obsessive Also have disorder is a comorbid
• 0:36
  co-occurring condition which is quite common in in autism.
• 0:39
  Right? And so we might be listening and
• 0:41
  thinking oh, yeah, I have OCD as well.
• 0:43
  So one of the things I used to do was I used to go around it
• 0:48
  walk in the streets are overrun and I'd see elastic bands on the
• 0:50
  floor that were left over from the postman and then I'd always
• 0:54
  want to pick them up because I think oh, you know the bad for
• 0:55
  the environment. I might need them at some point
• 0:57
  and then it became Obsession where if I didn't pick them up,
• 1:00
  I'd feel really bad and I feel like something bad is going to
• 1:01
  happen. So then I thought how am I going
• 1:04
  to cap this because it's obviously not healthy for me or
• 1:07
  anything like that. So I decided that I would think
• 1:11
  about it differently. I thought if I didn't pick them
• 1:12
  up, then I'm giving somebody else that opportunity like, you
• 1:15
  know, a kid might need elastic bands for a school project or a
• 1:18
  guy who's trying to set up his own business to not money for
• 1:20
  elastic bands. So maybe he can pick those up
• 1:22
  and use them. So this is what I did.
• 1:25
  So where you had intrusive negative thought that was
• 1:28
  impacting your ability and causing an OCD I voluntarily
• 1:33
  Putted a positive inflection on it.
• 1:35
  So it's based at how I beat it, you know like you put positivity
• 1:39
  in summer or something that was negative and then all of a
• 1:42
  sudden it becomes this like more interesting experience where
• 1:48
  it's a positive experience for both sides.
• 1:49
  You win and somebody else wins. So I think like if you're
• 1:53
  dealing with you know bad or CD audio CD in general try doing
• 1:58
  this because it might be the thing that completely changes.
• 2:03
  The game for you know, you might be something that helps impact
• 2:05
  you in a positive way when I really hope so because every
• 2:09
  super super awesome, but this one was like just a really quick
• 2:11
  one because I wanted to put this out there for you guys.
• 2:14
