A normal, healthy person being scared, realize that the feeling exist and that it will pass, and is not consumed by the feeling (if not the case being extreme, where his/hers life is in dager), but have some perspective to it.
An emotionally damaged/hurt person can't do that. Feelings are not ponds that you step in and can step out from, they are frickin quicksand. So instead, to cope, they can resort to what others would call "over-thinking" (as the example with locking the door).
Thus, being emotionally healthy will reduce the need to dodge emotions, and regular reason will take over-thinkings place.
However, confidence will play a part in the game, being a subset of emotional health in general. The question is how broad approach of emotional healing that is needed for the specific individual, E2 being broader in its nature while being ASC aimed at one specific part of emotional health.
Not sure where you went with that lol.
Self-confidence is the answer to OCD. So is emotional health, but self-confidence is more specific, which is what the asker of this question was asking for.
Now, stop bothering me with weak logic and bad thinking.
