You understand OCD and anxiety. You know the thoughts can be intrusive. You know you’re not supposed to engage with them.
But there’s always that one thought that makes you question everything. The one that feels too important to ignore, too real to dismiss, too risky to leave unanswered.
So you start analyzing, checking your feelings, replaying what happened, and looking for just enough certainty to finally move on.
Except you never quite get there.
And the kicker? YOU KNOW YOU'RE DOING IT. You do this all the time. You might even recognize exactly what your OCD is doing.
BUT. IT. STILL. FEELS. REAL.
So you start thinking:
- What if this actually means something?
- What if I'm ignoring something important?
- What if this isn't OCD/anxiety?
- What if I need to figure this out before I move on?
- What if I make the wrong decision because I didn't think it through?
I've heard some version of this thousands of times throughout my career, and I've experienced plenty of it myself. There's a reason you can understand it ~intellectually~ and still get completely sucked into it when the thought hits.
That's what we'll work on together.
How much of your day revolves around trying to figure out what's happening in your own head?
I mean, think about it. You wake up and notice an uncomfortable feeling, you start wondering what it means. You have an intrusive thought and immediately jump to trying to determine whether it says something about you. You make a decision and then spend the rest of the day reviewing whether you made the right one. You have a great afternoon planned, yet mentally you're somewhere else because you can't stop trying to solve the unsolvable.
Something feeling real, important, or urgent doesn't mean you have to make figuring it out your next most important priority.
You CAN feel something strongly without having to investigate it. You CAN have a thought that makes you uncomfortable without spending the next week trying to figure out what it means. You CAN have questions you haven't answered and, yes, still make decisions, enjoy your relationships, show up for your kids, do your work, and live your actual life.
I want you to learn how to do that. <3
Here's what we're going to work on.
Over two days, we're going to change how you approach the thoughts and feelings that keep pulling you in.
DAY ONE
WHY DOES IT FEEL SO REAL?
Wednesday, November 18 | 2:00–3:00 PM CST
First, we're going to look at why your thoughts and feelings can be so incredibly convincing, even when you KNOW you have OCD or anxiety.
We'll talk about:
- Why a thought can feel so important, even when you don't have any new information
- How fear, guilt, discomfort, and other feelings can make something feel like it's an undeniable fact
- Why knowing something is OCD/anxiety doesn't automatically stop you from feeling like you need to do something about it
- Why you keep thinking "but what if THIS time it's different?"
- How trying to figure out whether something is OCD can become another way of engaging OCD
- Why the constant need to get answers, review, analyze, and mentally revisit things keeps you caught in the same patterns
DAY TWO
WHAT DO I DO ABOUT IT?
Thursday, November 19 | 2:00–3:00 PM CST
Now we get into the good stuff, because you can understand everything we talked about on Day 1 and STILL find yourself spiraling the next time an intrusive thought shows up. I want you to know what to do in that moment.
We'll cover:
- How to recognize the 30-second window after a thought hits, when you start talking yourself into investigating, analyzing, or fixing it
- How to stop turning every uncomfortable thought or feeling into a problem that needs solving
- What to do when you feel the urge to check, replay, seek reassurance, or convince yourself that everything is okay
- How to stop making decisions based on whether you feel completely comfortable or convinced
- How to redirect your attention and behavior toward the things you actually care about, even when your mind is still making noise
We'll walk through examples so you can see how these ideas apply to different forms of OCD, anxiety, panic, and intrusive thoughts.
I want you to get your LIFE back.
Not some somewhat-tolerable version where you still have to accommodate every intrusive thought, monitor every feeling, and spend half your day trying to convince yourself you’re a good person. I’m talking about watching a movie with your family without mentally checking whether you’re enjoying it. Making a decision without replaying it 32 times to make sure you didn’t make a huge mistake. Being alone with your thoughts without treating every uncomfortable sensation like an emergency. Having a conversation without analyzing every word that came out of your mouth. Getting into bed without conducting a full-blown debate of everything you thought, felt, said, or did that day.
Imagine having the confidence and ease with which to say, “Maybe. Maybe not. I’m going to go live my damn life anyway.” This is what’s possible when you stop treating every thought and feeling like it deserves your immediate attention.
A little bit about me <3
I'm Jenna Overbaugh, licensed OCD and anxiety specialist. I've been working with people who have OCD and anxiety since 2008, including individuals with some of the most severe, life-consuming cases in residential treatment settings.
I also used to have OCD myself, and I know what it's like to get stuck in the mental gymnastics of it all, questioning things that other people seem to move past without a second thought. I've also spent way too much time trying to get my own brain to cooperate.
My work combines years of clinical experience with a very practical approach to helping people change how they respond to their thoughts, feelings, and fears. I care A LOT about helping you understand what's happening in your head, and I care even more about helping you stop organizing your entire life around it.
I want you to have a life so big, so bold, and so entirely yours that OCD and anxiety simply do not get to call the shots any longer.
