What should I expect?
What should I expect?
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
Good to hear
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!
