On a scale of 1-10 (1 low, 10 high), how helpful is this community? What can be improved?

While self diagnosing is problematic, without these conversations I doubted I had the correct diagnosis. This had really helped me zero in on examples of OCD and whats is reassurance seeking etc. I have seen multiple mental health professionals Over the years who only had a vague ability to diagnose and treat.

Maybe the ability to mute conversations? Sometimes I'll get notifications on posts from weeks ago that people keep commenting on and I'd like the chance to mute them so I can focus more on posts in the present

Oh and I forgot premade hierarchies! It would be great to be able to download a list of triggers related to a specific theme, ex: Harm and then delete out what you don’t need. Or be able to share hierarchies between users.

The people that run NOCD asked me for feedback, and I’d like to give them a good answer.

The simplicity is good. 1. The UI on the “Therapy” is OK. I think the nesting with Obsessions wasn’t apparent until I used the SOS mode. 2. changing the exposure homework focus is excessively hard to change. It would make more sense to me if I could cross index a hierarchy of SUDs or themes. 3. Had no understanding of how to use the audio recording to provoke without googling an example. 4. Uh. Maybe a tutorial or information box. This is quickly fading into my need to know and not forget but it’s still UI.

I would really love to have a reference page to common OCD help links since I find myself copying and pasting certain articles or sites often. I agree there needs to be more guided exercises such as a list of common cognitive distortions and how they fuel OCD thinking. I love the education idea! I wish there were the ability to create groups on here because I would love to be able to create challenges and discussion groups - ex ERP everyday for 30 days, a book club with discussion, etc
