well she is kinda right and also not... there is only the diagnosis of ocd, pocd is the content of your ocd... hocd tocd and rocd exist but are all the same thing -> ocd so if you get a treatment for ocd you will treat pocd pocd is just a manifestation of a mental illness namely ocd hope this helps☺️

If she is an OCD specialist then she DOES know better than you.

If she is an OCD-trained clinician she should know POCD.

Well she says she is. She says stop reading the internet. She says I’m convincing myself I have POCD. I don’t think she believes the thoughts I’m having. I think she thinks it’s not as bad as it is or something. I didn’t tell her the exact thoughts just that I thought I was a pedofile and having horrible disgusting shameful thoughts. I didn’t go into any detail so I’m not sure she realizes or maybe she knows better than me. ?♀️

I made an appointment with a different OCD specialist for a second opinion.

Does anyone else have trouble with certain words reminding them of the vile thoughts and makes you think of it again. It’s like my brain is taking words and just making stuff up. Like a song I will make it about the thoughts. Does that make sense? It seems super sick!!!!! I don’t know why I would do that. It’s the last thing I want to think about yet my brain is like hey listen to these lyrics now put the word child or something in it and make it gross. Wth!!!!

Lost
I cant afford therapy which is why i’m not diagnosed with ocd. The first time i had heard what ocd was truly abt was 6 years ago when i overthinking my sexual identity and it fit. Additionally, i struggle with debilitating health anxiety and when i was in a rlt i was extremely anxious that i might not love my partner. This is the third year i experience distress around my sexuality but this year it feels real. And it could also explain my rlt anxiety. Comphet is a concept that really scares me. I dont want to be with a girl. I would rather die than discover i was lesbian. I cant accept uncertainty cz i dont want to be homosexual. Chat GPT told me it wasnt ocd + the thoughts dont distress me anymore. I experience 3 intense weeks of anxiety prior to now. Maybe its internalized homophobia. Maybe its comphet. I do find women to be attractive but i dont wanna be with them. Maybe i’m in denial. Idk anything anymore. I’m remembering times where i would find an actress attractive and try to shift my focus towards the man cz it would make me anxious. I’m not well at all.

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

ALL THERAPIST PLEASE HELP
Hello, so I’m in therapy for ROCD but my therapist says she doesn’t think/feels that I have ROCD. Her reasoning is because “compulsions don’t provide any sense of relief for someone with OCD, they are constant even after compulsions” but i’ve read online that they do provide relief until a new intrusive thought restarts the cycle. She also said I can’t have ROCD if I don’t show signs of regular OCD, because ROCD is only a subtype and I must have OCD to have ROCD. I’ve read otherwise online though so all therapist on here is she correct? (She also mention she only has 2 years experience and has a supervisor she reports to)
