ChatGPT is such a trap for OCD! It’s like a reassurance bot. 🤖
@lyn4444 Yeah it legit is , I use it so much
I've been there... It doesn't help. Try to cut down. It's funny... I was asking it questions about ocd then switched to the theme I was anxious about and it told me I was probably having an ocd episode. Lol. It was right
Thanks for sharing this advice and support.
@Annoying_OCD Sure... I can try. I probably have good advice though I don't always follow it myself. LOL
@Misstama65 Thank u, I do need to stop but it’s so hard
@Kay89 It is. It actually helped when I understood it was a compulsion
I was doing the same. Do this instead ask it help you get through the situation with an ERP. It’s helped me A LOT. My compulsion is to just think but it helped me stay out of my head.
@Miggy It’s so hard with pocd tho but I guess it’s the only way
Thank you for sharing this experience. Many people find themselves turning to tools like ChatGPT for reassurance when struggling with OCD thoughts. While it might offer temporary comfort, this compulsion can unfortunately make managing uncertainty harder in the long run. If you’re struggling and need more assistance, remember that help is available. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at NOCD to find out how we can support you.

If you have the app downloaded on your phone, you could just straight up delete it, or you can try moving it to another folder. This way, you don't click on it as often out of habit since it won't be in its usual spot on your phone. I don't know if it'll help. It's how I eased myself off social media. If it's not the app you're using, you can try setting a 15-minute timer to prevent the compulsion. Once the time is up, add another 5 minutes and keep going until the urge to seek reassurance fades. If you give in after the 15 minutes the first few times, don't beat yourself up! You will have more opportunities to try again :)
No matter how much reassurance you get it will never ever be enough for ocd cause for every logical answer you give ocd its says but what if ,are you sure,I don't think so,that ocd nature, if you are willing to live in a world where your fear can happen or come true ?
I cant afford therapy which is why i’m not diagnosed with ocd. The first time i had heard what ocd was truly abt was 6 years ago when i overthinking my sexual identity and it fit. Additionally, i struggle with debilitating health anxiety and when i was in a rlt i was extremely anxious that i might not love my partner. This is the third year i experience distress around my sexuality but this year it feels real. And it could also explain my rlt anxiety. Comphet is a concept that really scares me. I dont want to be with a girl. I would rather die than discover i was lesbian. I cant accept uncertainty cz i dont want to be homosexual. Chat GPT told me it wasnt ocd + the thoughts dont distress me anymore. I experience 3 intense weeks of anxiety prior to now. Maybe its internalized homophobia. Maybe its comphet. I do find women to be attractive but i dont wanna be with them. Maybe i’m in denial. Idk anything anymore. I’m remembering times where i would find an actress attractive and try to shift my focus towards the man cz it would make me anxious. I’m not well at all.
Sorry for getting on everyone's nerves by reassurance seeking. I am just struggling and feel like a real P. I just want some help while I wait on my next therapy appointment
Ive been struggling with the fear that if i am suicidal or something and ive been having like fears or intrusive thoughts of jumping off or losing control and acting on these thoughts and i dont know if this is just some very bad case of anxiety? Im always thinking about it trying to prove it wrong in my head and its gotten to a point where its effecting my sleep, i use chat gpt. I know deep down i dont wanna do any of it, i mean the very thought makes me panic quick so idk i just want to forget all these thoughts and i was wondering if anyone goes through this as well?
