Committing To Overcome OCD Is The Hard Part
Thursday, 2 April, 2026
William Schultz knew what he was supposed to do to treat his OCD — and still couldn’t do it. He understood ERP, understood the logic behind it, and understood that avoiding his fears was keeping the cycle going. But... every time it came down to actually facing those fears, William would back down. For years. Until he realized OCD wasn’t going anywhere on its own.In this episode, William walks through the moment that finally shifted things for him — when he stopped trying to feel ready and made a decision anyway. He shares what it’s like to choose uncertainty on purpose, what “taking a calculated risk” actually means in OCD treatment, and why that moment of commitment is often the difference between staying stuck and finally moving forward.At NOCD, we specialize in exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy, the most effective treatment for OCD—a treatment that can help you live a fulfilling life.
