hahahah I’ve given lots of people advice that helped them improve. We post on here to express our feelings to at least someone when we cannot do it anywhere else and sometimes just a positive word from someone else or advice if they’ve experienced something similar or even something that fits your situation is AMAZING!! On the other hand this app could be a negative thing to those solely searching for reassurance when really they need therapy or medication alongside. But this app is a great way to learn more about yourself and express feelings or vent. Nobody is obligated to respond to anyone but having people to relate to cab be very beneficial!
Lol thank you for responding
I think peopl3 can benefit from this app/site, i had to stop using it because it was becoming compulsive in 'reminding' me that I have OCD. But that's just me! As long as it's helpful and not a hindrance or compulsion (reassurance) then why not?
A lot of people find it helpful. I know I have. Sometimes it helps to be reminded that there are literally millions of people experiencing what we do. Sometimes we need validation, or some tips. Sometimes just getting the words out into the community helps. The support groups are really popular for this very reason, too. The maturity, depth of insight, and genuine care & support are evident. Engagement in the community has taken my recovery journey to the next level. I love this community and the genuine support people share to help others. I find helping others also helps me, as an added bonus 🥰
This is such an important point! Sometimes when I'm feeling really anxious, I want to come here to share some tips and give encouragement, not only because I want to help, but also because it helps to ground me and remind me of the progress I've made. That can ride the line of being compulsive, if I'm doing it to help me settle.
No it really doesn’t help. The majority of people on here are only looking for reassurance
ok, definitely no one can say anything on that topic, and apparently I'm the only one going through it.. I don't even know what the group is for..?!?
This app is too flooded with posts and not enough people returning help. I really need it like. I’m sorry to be a nuisance but literally nobody else understands OCD & how debilitating it is. I’m so tired. So so tired.
why doesn't anyone want to read my post and say something?
