I’ve had like 6 sessions I think? And I already feel like my physical neck pain that’s come from ocd/ anxiety has gotten better. I’m definitely compulsing less. Feels good and most importantly I’m excited to keep going.

You should expect some discomfort at first but overtime you will get used to it and I promise your therapist won’t put you in an awful moment:)

It’ll help so much! It’ll feel like you’re challenging your own reality but it’s really OCD. You’ll start to feel better after practicing ERP.

@Honeyshark Also don’t be afraid to talk about the stuff that brings you deep shame and guilt - OCD loves hiding there - and it’s not you, it’s your OCD that makes you think those things.

I started here about a 1 and a half ago when, what I know now is, OCD had me down really bad. I was a little skeptical how much it would help me but it feels like night and day from where I was when I started and I still have room to go. Stick with it, don’t be afraid to be open and honest about anything and definitely practice the ERP and you’ll see the improvement

Realizing what in my life was touched by OCD was hard and freeing. I changed in things I felt were just reality for me and could never be different. Congrats on starting - a hard and necessary step!

Starting zoloft!!
So my doctor is starting me on 25 mg of Zoloft soon and I'm actually really exicted. I'm finally ready for this to be manageable. I know it's not a cure but I am told that zoloft is primarily recommended for specifically ocd. I'm not sure if I'm ready to start it tonight but yeah. Please do not tell me any negative side effects or anything related to nausea since I'm taking it for emetophobic contamination ocd and I don't need any opinions to make me biased but if any of yoy had SUCCESSFUL zoloft stories please comment!!

Anyone got diagnosed through NOCD?
If so, can you tell me what the process was like? Did you have to request for a diagnostic assessment, or will they give you one if you don’t already have a diagnosis? And does it happen during that 1 hour appointment or what? Please tell me! Thank you.
