This is what's gonna happen. You're gonna get on that call with the therapist, you'll be scared to death. You get the courage to open up and let out your deepest darkest thoughts that utterly disgust you, and think "this is horrifying, how are they gonna react?" They are gonna nod their head and be like "yeah that sounds scary, seems like you have OCD". This is literally what they deal with daily, your worst thoughts are not going to make them bat an eye. I can't diagnose you because I'm not your therapist but if you are that distressed over THOUGHTS you have, it's probably OCD.

My ocd is different, but I am a massage therapist for 22yrs now and I can promise you we do not have the credentials to send anyone to the hospital. It is also very normal to have emotional releases during and after massages, it's actually quite healthy! Your body stores so much physically and emotional stress and when released you can have all sorts of things come up. I hope you keep going and know a good massage therapist will never judge and are used to seeing people go through different experiences, I hope this helps ♡

As long as you don’t have active plans to carry out suicide, no need for hospitalization. The therapist definitely shouldn’t send you if it’s simply suicidal ideation. I have depression and suicidal ideation at times and have never been hospitalized for telling a therapist that

so I need to get back into ERP, but it’s so hard to manage these thoughts and learn to deal with them. like I swear my mind has to make everything about it. Like every time I clean my room, my mind’s like yup make sure it’s clean so when your parents find you, or something so stupid like if I get a headache, my mind convinces me that I like the pain and that that’s why I get my thoughts because I actually want to do it. It’s so exhausting. Because I know I would never want to take my life and I treasure my life so why does it do it to me? It’s hard to comprehend the fact of these thoughts too because I don’t know many people with this exact theme. It’s such a scary feeling. And I’m constantly questioning whether I have actual depression or if it’s just my OCD. Yes I have been diagnosed with suicidal OCD, but my mind still tries to convince me otherwise. I just don’t know how to let these just sit and pass without panicking.

i’m terrified to get a diagnosis. What if it’s not actually OCD??? I made a list of reasons why i think so and then i think what if im lying and i actually don’t do this stuff and am just dramatic and i just want to have OCD so then my thoughts are justified?? I have struggled in the past year with Pocd & Rocd and then also some bits of thinking im constantly in danger or being watched? I’m scared.
