Hi Dr. Jeff! My boyfriend has pure O OCD. His intrusive thoughts sometimes just break him down beyond functioning. What can I do to help him get through these times? It's very hard to find material made specifically for Pure O and I've done a lot of research but I'm having a very difficult time finding anything. Do you have any suggestions? Is there any right or wrong things to say? Thank you! And thank you for the work you do!

Thank you so much!

Another question I had is this- I've read that accepting and acknowledging the thoughts they suffer from can help ease the torment. I can imagine it would be incredibly difficult to do so, but have you found that to be true? Would you say that it would be helpful?
