A member asked:
What are your personal experiences of success using erp to treat adult ocd? relapse rate? treatment success in symptom reduction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ERP works if you do: Exposure and response prevention (erp) for ocd works. It only works, however, if you work and stay committed to it. A therapist who is a good fit will push you to stretch your limits but not so hard that it feels impossible, and will support you through setbacks and encourage you to keep on pushing your limits. If you keep working on it, little by little you will be successful.
