Kind advice for me 😸 please
Hii, I’ve been on this app for a feew months, and im not diagnosed. I started going to a center of psychological attention at my school used for training their future therapists (I’m studying psychology too) but I haven’t told my family that I need help because I’m a bit scary of what they’re gonna thing about me (the support psychologists just I’m scared of the content of my obsessions or whatever they’re, again I repeat I’m undiagnosed). The problem is that, I thought that talking to my psychologist about my doubts about maybe having ocd would make her interested and maybe like to indague more about it, but she always tells me that my intrusive thoughts are illogical and that I shouldn’t worry about them too much, and that my, what I think are, false memories aren’t real and I shouldn’t believe them because if something happened I would remember, but, I haven’t told her about the most horrible thoughts and images and the content of my obsessions because I’m really scared that she’ll think I’m crazy. She told me to seek a psychiatrist and while it maybe good, to go I need my mum taking me, and I don’t wanna go to the psychiatrist either, I’ll rather start with a therapist specialized in ocd for them to evaluate me and answer my questions. My psychologist is nice, but Im now regretting seeing her first because now I don’t wanna tell her that I wanna see a licensed therapist specifically specialized in ocd and leave her. She is nice but I don’t think we’re getting anywhere and I just struggle to ask my mum for help (even though knowing that she’ll get it for me) So, does anyone have like tips for telling your parents that you think you may have ocd and for telling your therapist that you wanna leave her because you feel you are not going anywhere and you wanna seek for a possible diagnoses? 😿
