trying to get help
so i’ve been thinking for years that i might have ocd and i’m finally going to talk to a psychologist this month. but i have no experience with therapy at all and i’m terrible at describing how i feel in general. even when i was asked by the intake coordinator about my symptoms i had trouble articulating what i meant. it’s like as soon as someone asks me i have trouble remembering what i want to say and getting the words out. should i just make a list and read it when the time comes? i’ve also been worried because this psychologist does not specialize in ocd. she does have experience with erp and treats ocd but i’m still concerned that i won’t be understood. i’m starting to regret trying lol, can’t stop thinking about the what ifs. like what if i get misdiagnosed, or what if i’m wrong and it’s not ocd. i don’t think i would know what to do if it’s not, i’m stressed
