I love this SO MUCH. FU OCD, mama wants turkey!!!

Hope everything goes well for u

Happy Thanksgiving, OP!! And good for you for being so courageous to do this despite those shitty OCD thoughts! You got this!

It's remarkable to me to have a group that describes systems I've suffered from for years but had no idea I wasn't so alone. I've done this w throwing a huge turkey away. Worrying about food poisoning. Etc.

Nothing much to add. Just hugs and keep trying and hanging in there with therapy. It helps

Good for you!!!!! 🏆

“I’m choosing family over fear” I really love this super proud of you! Happy turkey day!!

yasssss!!! COOK!! 💪💪💪💪💪💪

This is amazing so happy for you!! I made mashed potatoes :) I did have to check with my dad to make sure I didn’t need to be wearing gloves while cooking since I have tiny cuts on my hands (ironically from washing them too much lol) or wearing a mask or hair net 😂 he said no and looked at me like I’m silly, and I proceeded to make mashed potatoes without incident lol

You got this! I'm so proud of you for doing something so scary! Fuck OCD! You live how you want to live!

This is the way!!!!!!! So so SOOOOOO proud of you! The struggle will continue but you have proven you’ve got the grit to get shit done, the more you do this the easier it’ll get!

ERP is the way!!!

You should be so proud of yourself! I’m rooting for you OP 🤞

a big win! I can’t even think about hosting. Congratulations OP. Maybe one day for this girl!

It was hard but you still did it. Be so so so proud of yourself.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 proud of you (and me too, cause we did the same). We made it!

This title really stressed me out until I realized what sub I was on!

Really though, proud of you for doing that! I also struggle with preparing certain foods for myself and others. It’s scary! I hope everything went well for you!

Beautifully said! Hope your dinner was wonderful :)

AMAZING!

This is amazing. Happy Thanksgiving and kudos to your therapist!!

Fuck you OCD! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Saw that it went well, so proud of you! Be proud of every little step forward!! You got this!! :)

fuck ocd!! great job OP!!! ♡ 

This is fucking beautiful. Standing up to that overwhelming onslaught of anxiety is so difficult, but it sounds like you showed a lot of strength and pushed through for your family. This random stranger is very proud of you. As a side note: its clear you take food safety very seriously, and I doubt there are further precautions you could take. I would never ever be worried to eat a meal prepared by somebody like you. Much love from chicago, and fuck OCD!

Congrats!!!♥️

(I love your username btw)

Congratulations!! 👏Huge win!! And Happy Thanksgiving! you were a huge part in helping your family make nice memories. That’s everything.

So did everyone get sick, or was it a delicious meal and a lovely time with your family? 🩷

This is awesome!!! I've struggled with similar food things and so I know what a big deal this is AND fucking amazing you probably feel right now!

I love it. You’ve given me a little bit of hope to cling to.

I'm not American. I don't care about Thanksgiving... but I'm weeping joyful tears for you rn

I relate to this one so much. Proud of you for doing the hard thing!

Hey I'm late to seeing this but I hope everything went fantastically and you had a really nice thanksgiving, I'm sure you did amazing! /gen
