My therapist

What if my therapist hates me? Week ago I told her about compulsion that I had half year ago (a gross compulsions and my worse) I stoped doing it of course. She told me it’s just a compulsion and it’s ocd. What if she lying? What if she hates me and just want money (I know it’s selfish to think that but I’m scared because I actually like her). She passed our sessions to another day in the week. What if that could tell that she hates me? I’m having a big urge to sent her and ask her if she hates me but it will look weird and now I have to wait more then a week. It’s scary I wish I could know what she was thinking

I personally do not feel it's possible that your therapist hates you. They are very focused on data and people that can't handle what they hear us say wouldn't bother being in this particular line of work. There are other ways to make money tbh that are much easier than this. I don't want to throw too much logic or justification at the OCD monster but try your best stay the course and remember your OCD is not you. It's a separate thing that just gets in your way sometimes. We have to learn to step around it so we can go on with our lives. You could also ask yourself if you would feel the same way switching to another therapist. If you actually like this, Therapist, it means you have a greater chance of healing and being successful. You must trust her though, and in order to do that you must trust yourself.

She does not hate you. That’s just your OCD playing games with you. Resist the urge to send her a message. That is a compulsion. Just keep going forward with life. Now that you can recognize all this worry as OCD, you are making progress!!!

Intrusive thoughts about intrusive thoughts

Hi everyone. I’ve been doing therapy for about two months now and I would say it’s slowly helping me a lot. I explained to her the breathing techniques and “sitting in the anxiety for a bit” and I feel like those are helping. But then my therapist said “don’t sit in the thought because then you might act on it”. I don’t “sit in the thought” but rather i sit in the anxiety to comdition my brain into thinking it’s not a threat. But ever since yesterday, my therapy appointment, I’ve been really shooken up. Even though I don’t “sit in the thought” I feel like a bad person that she even had to bring it up even though I explained it wrong. I’m so upset I feel like I just took 3000 steps back from my progress and this little thing is really scaring me. Am I a bad person? I don’t want to act on any of my thoughts and it scares me so bad I hate living.

New therapist - Please, I'm scared

It's going to be a year since I started the worst POCD episode of my life. I got diagnosed almost a year ago too, but the frequency of our sessions wasn't ideal and also I was in a very bad state (24/7 anxious and couldn't leave my bed) so I started taking medication a few months ago. But when I started with the meds my therapist kind of ghosted me? She said she's going to be very busy until May this year. That's why I booked an appointment with a new therapist my psychiatrist recommended. But I am deeply scared the moment I tell her everything she's going to send the police to my house and my life is going to end. Please help! How do I calm down? Can that actually happen?

Therapy today.

(21+ ONLY: TRIGGER WARNING) I have therapy today and I’m nervous. I just started going to therapy and I really like my therapist. She talked to me about doing ERP and I’m really nervous about it. I’m scared to tell her the extent of my OCD, and my themes. I’m scared to tell her about my false memory OCD, because I’m scared that what I did was real and I’m just excusing it as false memory, although I have no memory of it. I’m scared that I am truly a monster and I’m using OCD as an excuse—and that she’ll find out and distance herself. I’m just scared that my whole world is gonna fall apart, all around me.
