No it's not normal. Please do not further engage with that teacher. Take screenshot and alert someone, an adult. Your parents or another trusted teacher in your school. I'm sorry this happened to you. The teacher shouldn't do that at all.

@Peridottttt good night

@agriculturalindustries Ok I’m awake and first she is really close with my mom and I’ve told her a lot so it’s hard to switch cause my mom thinks she’s a good therapist and she is she helps a lot. And she likes me a lot as her client. So how u supposed to break a bond like that
- Date posted
- 4y
@Peridottttt right, that is hard. But if she helps then it is ok. However, I think a therapist who is specialized in ocd may help better.
- Date posted
- 4y
@agriculturalindustries Yeah but she won’t let me and she really likes me as her client so it hard to break the bond should I continue? I’m just looking for red flags but I want to feel safe not always alert
- Date posted

@Peridottttt you must not leave her. You can find ocd therapist separately. Actually you can even find online one
- Date posted
- 4y
@agriculturalindustries Well I have to ask for permission and she probably won’t let me since she is actually a psychiatrist cause I saw it on her card. And she said she’ll do erp with me which hasn’t started cause of covid
- Date posted

@Peridottttt Then my advice is waiting for erp, you can decide then. Maybe she is pretty good at it.
- Date posted
- 4y
@agriculturalindustries Yeah I still have doubts it will work tho, but I’m so far good with managing my ocd I just say it’s ocd and move on so it’s not as bad. I’ll wait to see if she’s good or not. Also should I still forget about the emoji situation?

@Peridottttt I really see no harm in that issue. Maybe I'm not in that hard times of cod but I wouldn't bother me. I think you can forget, I you can exactly

@agriculturalindustries Ok I will forgot but I can never let it go I hope it will get better

@Peridottttt I have that feelings too, after getting better you feel nothing towards to that things

I don't agree with a therapist using it. I don't agree with anyone using those emojis in a professional situation, as there is simply no need. Have you met her before? I think it is important to see these as red flags. if you were my child, I wouldn't want you to go to her - regardless of gender. There are lots of good therapists out there who don't use unprofessional language, so I would feel safer to do that if you were my child. I'm sorry this has happened, but it's good you told someone, the community on here.

Oh god thank you so much for being here I want more ppl here so I can get more ppl opinions on it. So well fine it’s actually a therapist and I told her about this app and I used the word teacher to cover it up so My therapist don’t think it’s me talking about them.

Ok thank you for commenting back. I’m scared right now and this happened other times too but with a 😍 emoji. I told my therapist we will meet soon at a certain time and then she sent that emoji

Hmmm I use that emoji a lot... sometimes I’ll be like I can’t wait to enjoy the beach tomorrow 😍 are you sure she wasn’t happy about meeting with you? Like I can’t wait to meet with you again😍. Eh fhat does seem kinda weird, but yeah I need more context

Hey! Im sorry you went through a very horrible incident as a young girl. I would say you are able to come to your own decision about this. What would you want from this situation? Nothing is ever set in stone, another therapist can be found okay. It is TOTALLY reasonable to not want to continue.

Idk man I’m scared to switch but she is really nice and she helped my thru quite a lot. She knows about my hocd and pocd. And she is the one gonna do erp with me. I don’t really know how to move forward cause tmr i see her.
