Utilize technology for tracking progress and staying organized from "summary" of REWIRE YOUR OCD BRAIN by CATHERINE M. PITTMAN AND WILLIAM H. YOUNGS

One effective strategy for managing OCD is to take advantage of the technology available to help you track your progress and stay organized. With the use of smartphones, tablets, and computers, there are countless apps and programs designed specifically to assist individuals in keeping track of their symptoms and treatment goals. By utilizing these technological tools, you can easily monitor your progress over time and identify any patterns or triggers that may be exacerbating your symptoms. For example, you can use a mood tracking app to record your daily emotions and behaviors, allowing you to see how your OCD symptoms fluctuate throughout the day or week. Additionally, technology can help you stay organized by setting reminders for medication, therapy appointments, or other important tasks related to your treatment plan. By having a digital calendar or to-do list, you can ensure that you are staying on top of your responsibilities and not falling behind on your self-care. Furthermore, technology can provide a sense of security and reassurance by allowing you to store important information, such as coping strategies, emergency contacts, or relaxation techniques, in one easily accessible place. This can be especially helpful during times of heightened anxiety or distress, when it may be difficult to remember or recall these essential resources.
  1. Increase your awareness of your symptoms, and ultimately enhance your overall treatment outcomes. By taking advantage of these digital tools, you can empower yourself to take control of your OCD and work towards a healthier, more balanced life.
