Edna Foa writes, “Legitimate inquiry is often made by suffers of OCD “would normal people do those extreme things?”

How successful do you want to be in life? How much do you want a life that works for you? Yes, you have to work hard sometimes. Yes, even before you are absolutely convinced it is worth it. You have to trust that others have done hard work and it paid off for them and it could for you, as well. Or you can be skeptical and not take necessary risks, just be willing to accept the consequences of your behavior.
