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

Just a vent
So I’m always telling people who say I’m not getting any help or advice on my post that maybe those people just don’t know what to say or they’re afraid of possibly making the situation worse… well while that is completely understandable I feel like the amount of help/advice/ interaction has went down drastically on this app.. again not complaining I’m thankful for everyone on here but I just wanted to know if others have felt the same way

Let me be honest.
Ok so I just downloaded this app like two days ago because I was looking for a OCD specialist. Maybe this is just my opinion but the posting’s on this app can be super triggering. If feels like even sharing your experience on an app like this can contribute to fueling OCD. So many people I see reassurance seeking, confessing and posting the same things multiple times to gain certainty. Makes me wonder if this app is counterproductive to the point of OCD treatment. I’m guilty of spending hours scrolling through the post trying to find people who relate to me, but in the end it makes me more anxious and fuels my OCD. Idk what do you guys think.

Reassurance Seeking
I told my OCD group about NOCD and one of the members brought up that this app, despite its intent to create a safe community for sharing OCD experiences could potentially be used for reassurance seeking, thus contributing to compulsions. I’ve noticed some posts about people venting and asking for reassurance and I wonder the same thing.
