No More Reassurance: A Chrome Extension to Help OCD Sufferers Avoid Online Reassurance Seeking
No More Reassurance is a Chrome extension designed specifically for OCD sufferers who find themselves constantly seeking reassurance online. This compulsive behavior can hinder their progress towards recovery. With this extension, users have the ability to select the websites and phrases they frequently turn to when seeking reassurance.
When a user attempts to visit one of these websites, a pop-up message will appear, encouraging them to reconsider their decision and avoid seeking reassurance. They are given a 30-second window to rethink their choice before proceeding to the website. This simple yet effective tool aims to help users break free from the cycle of reassurance seeking and empower them to manage their OCD symptoms more effectively.
No More Reassurance serves as a constant reminder to users to challenge their compulsive behavior and actively work towards their recovery. By providing this gentle nudge, the extension helps users take control of their actions and make progress in their journey towards better mental health.
