Once our system notices you have posted more than 8 times in 48 hours and/or opened the app more than 50-100 a times day repeatedly it blocks you for 48 hours from posting and replying. Weekends don’t count in this timeline. These are signals the app is becoming a compulsive behavior and not something we support. Other communities exist online which do not moderate this aggressively. If you have already deleted your account there is no way to recover it.

To clarify, that block does not include blocking the therapy section?

@NOCD Advocate - Katie No functionality in the app is ever blocked besides creating posts/replies, so therapy/sos/etc is never blocked. You can still continue to read the community as well. We may ease this requirement to not block replies as well.

I see, well that's informative. Thank you. Also is the support chat moderated by an AI or is it an actual person talking to me?

The community is a concern from a clinical standpoint in that users may use it compulsively and research has shown this makes things worse (other platforms may not think about this side of the problem). Others have also mentioned that there are repeated posters and they are concerned about them and there is too much triggering content (which is something we are working in solutions to), we want the community to be a place where others no longer feel alone but we need to draw boundaries when behavior is becoming unhealthy.

Hello! I just got diagnosed with OCD a week ago and joined the app today to find a sense of community. Since my understanding of treatment is minimal at this point, I'm confused why everything on here tells us not to seek or give reassurance? If someone could explain the reasoning behind that it would be greatly appreciated, as I want to make sure I'm not only watching out for it in my personal life but also using this app appropriately.

How long should I do ERP, so that my brain gets used to it, not to say tired?! I've been working for about three months, but everything still seems vivid in my head, there are even vulgar words in detail... since the sexual topic is both a groinal and a feeling that I want to touch myself. It's mostly related to faces and genitals, so how exactly can that go, if it's emphasized that sex pictures in themselves give that feeling, whoever is in them?

So I know I don’t go on this app that much but I tried to respond. Tell people, about what’s going on in my life in a respectful way. But I was reading someone’s post about how they were talking about the stuff that they were going through and how people don’t really support and honestly, I have to agree. have even dealt with things of comments being deleted because I’m guessing someone probably said something or just people saying kind of offhand things and don’t get me wrong I know communities are not gonna be perfect. Cause I don’t want this community to turn into a negative thing I think we need to do better supporting one another not just saying we care but supporting I feel like lately. People haven’t been doing that so again I don’t mind being goofy but also I do also wanna talk about important things and also. please tell me your opinions and if you deal with a lot of bad interactions or lately just with like not the best community on the NOCD.
