Do you have unwanted thoughts or urges? Do you feel driven to do things just to feel okay? And is all of this taking up way too much of your time?

Welcome to the OCD club nobody wants to join. But the good news is there is a way out and this book will show you how. Drawing on a highly effective treatment called Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), you’ll be introduced to a step-by-step plan that has helped thousands of people to take their life back – and now you can too. You’ll discover:

• How OCD works on the brain so you are one step ahead
• Worksheets to understand what you’re dealing with
• What your core fear is and how to connect to your values
• Self-compassion strategies to manage setbacks

See this book as your own OCD therapist, supporting you every step of the way throughout your recovery. It’s time to stop living by OCD’s rule and break free.

"This book will frustrate your OCD. Nathan has taken the essence of what OCD is, of what ERP is and how to apply ERP to OCD and made it digestible and understandable. You will not need another book on OCD after this one." - Patrick McGrath, author of The OCD Answer Book and Chief Clinical Officer at NOCD

"A good self-help book makes the reader feel like the author is right there with them on the journey. In Your OCD Will Hate This Book, Nathan Peterson does this right from the start by directly addressing your scepticism in a truly disarming way. He then clearly and thoughtfully lays out the most effective and evidence-based techniques to change your relationship with OCD through behaviour. To make a book feel like a real chat, and then press the point that talking about it just won’t cut it, is to crack the self-help code." - Jon Hershfield, MFT, co-author of The Mindfulness Workbook for OCD and Director of The Center for OCD and Anxiety at Sheppard Pratt
