OCD often dismisses small gains as insignificant. If we do not challenge OCD on this, we begin to distrust ourselves and our ability to cope with challenges.

 

When we recognise our efforts and small steps forward, we start to see that we’re more capable and resourced than we realised, and more able to take on bigger tasks.

 

We don’t need to feel proud of every small achievement, but we do need to notice them.
