That sucks. I was misunderstood before finding my OCD therapist too.

Sounds like they wanted that money 💴. She wasn’t to concerned when you were still her client.

A therapist that isn’t trained and I’ll see it doesn’t specialize in anything whatsoever—which would be a bad therapist. I highly suggest that you seek an OCD specialist on here even for just a diagnosis and pay out-of-pocket. If your health insurance doesn’t cover it because therapists are required if they deem it necessary to report if you’re thinking of hurting yourself or others and it’s deemed a real threat to them. But if you have an LCD specialist in your corner, saying that that is not accurate, then there’s a little to nothing that other therapist can do.

That's actually illegal and you could sue. I get the misunderstanding especially if she isn't familiar with patients who have OCD, but it's really the bare minimum for your therapist to look into your disorder if they really care about you. Also, if you never stated that you were GOING to but rather you were scared/worried that you were going to they still can't really report you. They're only legally obligated to report you if you plan on hurting yourself or others, not if you already did or worried that you're going to. She's also not allowed to tell your family about what you talk about in sessions unless you're a minor or have stated that you plan on hurting your family. She needs to be reported IMO.

I'm also so sorry she did this to you. You deserve better than that. I hope you find an OCD specialist that really cares about you and supports you through your OCD journey!

@🪷 I agree with this. With your “issues” — that could get you hurt by others… I think that you should pursue into suing…

@Piña colada You’re not. I’d not speak with her anymore. Change your phone number/block — and ask your brother to do the same thing.

Intrusive thoughts
I struggle so bad with intrusive thoughts. They can be so bad that I'll cry because I KNOW that's not how I feel or want to do. (Too embarrassed to say what they're about) I'll constantly try to figure out why I have them, and constantly figure out what they mean, causing me to constantly circle around and around. I had to get on anxeity meds, which helped a little but the thoughts still happen. How do you help yourself with this? How do you know that you're just not some physcopath? 😅

Urgent: i need yalls opinion
Sometimes I think " do I like kids?" "Would i get aroused if I saw content with kids?""What if I'm a pedo and cant accept it?" "What if I'm ok with these thoughts?" "What if I'm not distressed enough " "What if I enjoy these thoughts?" , i avoid kids as much as i can, i cant look at them bc I'm scared I'm gonna have some groin like response. I keep testing if I'd get turned on or if I'd have some groinal response to sexual scenarios with kids. Sometimes I think that if I took my life this would be over and i wouldn't have to think about this and i wish i doubted something else instead of things like this. I had similar situations just with different topics such as if i loved or found sexually appealing a guy while in a relationship and i kept asking myself those questions for months and i avoided going to school for weeks and when I went I'd cry and have anxiety attacks. I had it with past actions i obessed over and felt the need to exploit every detail and be honest because otherwise i was being a fraud. I had it for sexual things that happened when i was a child. Im not diagnosed with ocd but should i tell this to my local counselor? Can someone help? Give me advice or tell me anything?

New therapist
Today I had my first appointment with my new therapist in a clinic and she told me that my thoughts could be because of my past trauma and that it’s what makes most people pedos. I’m so in distress right now, I don’t want to hurt people but she made me feel like I’m disgusting
