Nobody is answering you because you have posted many times about the same thing. People here have offered you their moral support many times but it looks like you are only looking for reassurance. That will ultimately make you feels worse and we don't want that for you.

The right therapist who has a good understanding of OCD should be able to help you. Have you seen an actual therapist who can do ERP therapy, and not only a psychiatrist who administers medication? Also, is the medication you were prescribed on not helping you at all? Have you spoken to the doctor who prescribed it to you, if it is not providing you any relief? Maybe a different medication could work better for you.

hey, sorry to hear no one has answered you, tetros. maybe you are bad, maybe you are not bad— i can’t tell for sure, i don’t know you, but if these thoughts make you FEEL like a bad person, and if these thoughts make you AFRAID of being a bad person, i think you fit the characteristics for OCD. now, i know you probably know this as you are on this app, but still. i want you to know that it’s important for you to acknowledge those thoughts and images as OCD thoughts rather than thoughts that you enjoy having / are having on your own will. we can’t decide when those thoughts are going to pop into our heads; i have those sort of thoughts, too, especially about family members. i can’t hug them, i can’t look at them, i can’t talk to them, because that triggers sexual thoughts, too.

i want you to know that you can recover from this— this is your OCD. OCD is completely treatable and while those thoughts may never go away, they may not come up as often as they are right now. like Pineapple said, i also recommend seeing someone new about this. someone who specialises in OCD and the such. where do you live? no need to be specific, i just wonder why the ones you’ve been to aren’t helpful.

reassurance is a bad thing IN THE LONG-RUN. right now, it will be seen as a good thing. in a way, it is. however, seeking reassurance is a compulsion and it is not good for your ocd. your ocd FEEDS off of your compulsions and finds new ways to attack you with them.

Reassurance is bad for the same reason any compulsion is bad. It reinforces your obsession and makes OCD worse. Reassurance, like other compulsions, only provides short term relief before you have to seek reassurance again.

So I’m always telling people who say I’m not getting any help or advice on my post that maybe those people just don’t know what to say or they’re afraid of possibly making the situation worse… well while that is completely understandable I feel like the amount of help/advice/ interaction has went down drastically on this app.. again not complaining I’m thankful for everyone on here but I just wanted to know if others have felt the same way

I'm struggling severely. Please comment so I have a therapist or someone to talk to. Someone has caused me to spiral in another group.

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.
