I think you only hear from them once. They don’t/won’t talk to you after that much at all unless it’s like tech issues. It’s not like a chat buddy for your OCD… unfortunately…

I agree. My therapist rocks but my advisor has never checked in on me or anything. I only talked to her in very beginning for help with billing.

I’m on ssi cause of my ocd I get 533 a month I can’t afford to pay for therapy I have Medicaid it doesn’t cover shit and it can only be used in my state but here’s no inpatient ocd facilities in my state so I’d have to go out of state there willing to do single case agreement but I’d have to find a facility to do that and nowere will do it so I just can’t get help that doesn’t make sense I’ve seen doctors therapists and hospitals been on medications and I’ve gotten better but noone was helping me wit the rituals and rules I had noone really understood my ocd when I went to the hospital when I was younger they new I had ocd I was takeing showers for 2 hours cause the rituals were takeing so long and I had to get them just rite but I couldn’t shower in the time they wanted me to I told them that but they had to get all the kids showered and they could shower normal but I have ocd so they made me sit for 2 weeks in the hallways all day I ate in the hallway and wasn’t allowed to tlk to anyone so I sat there basically being punished for takeing 2 hour showers I didn’t want to take showers that long they yelled at me everyday as if I was being uncooperative they told me if I don’t shower they’ll have someone put me in the shower I was so scared then finally someone asked if they let me shower and knock on the door every few minutes to let me no the amount of time I’d been in there if that’s help and everyday we got down by a few minutes till I was takeing normal time showers I was still doing the ritual though they didn’t help me wit that they just wanted to do there job get kids in and out of the shower i had so much more ocd to that was just a more noticeable one that bothered others to they thought I was magically better cause I was takeing medication and took normal time showers but I was still struggling but to scared to tell anyone and to let anyone see my ocd cause of wat they did to me bout showering if I would’ve gotten the proper care then I could’ve actually gotten better not been made to feel embarrassed bout my mental illness just cause it’s unusual and can’t be treated in groups like other mental illnesses I’ve begged for help the past couple months I’m almost non functioning and scared to leave the house I just want to get on medication and tlk to a therapist and get better but money and insurance is keeping me from that it sucks.

I havent been connected to a peer advisor and have been having treatment for about 2 months now. I really need an advisor because sometimes I just need that help from someone who knows. Please can I have peer support? Thank you

Hi there! I think if you message (or talk with) your therapist about a peer advisor, they can connect you to one.

@Minde They only check in with you before you start with your therapist and when you end therapy. At keast that is what mine told me.

So the peer advisor isn't a long time thing. They basically follow up with you after your first session with your counselor and help you set up with billing.

My free call with NOCD gave me so much hope. For the first time I felt like someone actually understood what I was going through and there was no judgement. I finally found a resource that could help me. Then I found out that they bill in USD and that I’m not covered for it under my insurance. I wish the service was more accessible/affordable. The therapist they were going to pair me with was even located in Canada too. It left me feeling pretty heartbroken and back to square one. There are little resources or therapists trained in OCD in my area. This makes seeking treatment exceptionally difficult.

Should I start therapy? What if I say something that they think is odd, strange, illegal, etc.? What if they tell me it is not OCD? These are just a small handful of the things that I have heard from people who are worried about starting therapy. And, it is unfortunate that these types of questions, and the fear of their answers, keep people suffering. If you have these questions, I want to know about them. I hope that you will gain some insight and inspiration to take that step and try out NOCD ERP for your OCD. So, let me hear from you and let's overcome these fears together.
