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!!!!

I have a question.
I had my second session with a therapist and they told me they don’t think I have OCD. They think that I have just intrusive thoughts. They also said they don’t do diagnosis. I also noticed they did not ask me questions about my different themes.This has made me so confused. Even though I had a terrible fear that a therapist will tell that I don’t have it, (which is the main reason why I had not gone to one) I did suspect I had it because I identify with many of the symptoms. On the website it says that they treat it but I don’t think they are like a specialist. On the first session they described OCD mainly as needing to have things symmetrical and fear of contamination. I have a feeling that they don’t know much about it. I also didn’t mentioned all the themes I think I have because I’m scared to be misunderstood. I am not sure what to do. I can’t afford seeing an OCD therapist at NOCD. Can anyone give an insight, has something similar happened to you? Thank you!

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)
