Yes therapy will help u! Trust me I am in the same boat. Sometimes it feels so scary and real. Like I don’t have ocd or compulsions. It is so scary and horrible but we have to learn to accept maybe it is true, there is more to life then that. But the one thing that strangely has helped me has been to get angry! You don’t deserve this! You didn’t ask to feel like this or to have these thoughts! You deserve relief and happiness. It is worth fighting for. You got this. It gets worse before it gets better hon.

I mean this in the nicest way when I say everyone knows exactly what you’re going through. Everyone in this app who has suffered from POCD has had those same exact thoughts and I know it seems so real and scary that’s why it’s called a disorder. It feels real because that’s how this disorder works. That’s how it gets you obsessed with figuring out the truth. Once you enter therapy you realize that there will never be certainty enough that will satisfy your ocd. You learn to live by your values as opposed to whatever thought you had that popped into your head. I know your thoughts seem so grotesque that it feels like no one in the world could possibly experience this but you’re wrong; this app is proof. Please try and get help so you can see how amazing and kind of a person you are and so OCD can stop trying to convince you otherwise.

No. The good news is that 95 percent of ppl have intrusive thoughts. It’s just how w respond to them. Therapy will help! You are in a habit of the mind and can step outside it with help!
