If you massaged her in the middle of the night and she responded at all during that time, that's amazing, not slow. I get where you're coming from because I struggle with this too, but what is she supposed to say that's going to make the difference clear enough?

@boo 😽 I just realized I typed "massaged" instead of "messaged". Dagnabbit, that totally changes the meaning 🤣!

Case in point, I'm struggling a bit with the ethics of buying used CDs. It shouldn't be a problem, but it's not unlikely that the seller has ripped the CD before selling. So would I be contributing to a crime? It's a decision I'm ultimately going to have to make for myself.

@Coul.C For now I'm buying new CDs. But could change my mind. Either way, in the words of Jackson Browne, "Don't let the uncertainty turn you around" 🙂.

hi! if u texted her in the middle of the night when she could be sleeping and she responded only 45 mins later that’s pretty good! cuz 3 am is the middle of the night most people are sleeping. you have to understand therapists are people too who live lives and do normal things. to me the fact she even responded at all is great! i don’t think u can expect her to respond immediately.

Guys i realize that im not expecting her to message me back exactly then or in the morning but basically i texted her pretty early on and she replied like around 3 over the weekend she got married and didn’t respond at all

I understand she got married and am trying to be patient but we moved to twice a month and in between sometimes these sessions are what keep me not overwhelmed

That makes more sense 🙂. Even so, it's within the agreed 24 hrs. Also, I don't think they're required to respond during the weekend. I remember how difficult it was at times and how much I relied on others to respond to my problems. Having said that, people aren't going to be able to always live up to those expectations. And when they don't, you can still survive 🙂.

@Coul.C They normally do, I would go back and look into it and reach out to them also. They have been through what we've been through and they are there for support.

@Coul.C Well they sent me all my contact links through text or email, if you have access to any of those depending on how long ago you reached out if not you may be able to reach out through here somehow.

I’m feeling really scared I’ve been left in the lurch by my therapist today as she said she doesn’t feel comfortable doing anymore therapy with me unless I increase my mirtazipine (Remeron) as my OCD has spiked a lot since I started with her and I’m only just at the beginning, but I’m not sure increasing my meds is the right thing to do so much as what she’s doing is causing it …….. basically my OCD theme is it tells me I’ve done horrendous things like I’ve harmed people, it’s in the affirmative tense not the “what if?” anymore, I guess it’s a bit like it tries to give me false memories but isn’t quite the same,and I just feel so unarmed how to deal with it and I’m really scared I’m going to end up in a very very dark place again 😭

i’m trying to not let the thoughts bother me but it’s just so stressful. even me typing that feels like i’m lying when i know i’m not. i’m scared because even my therapist tells me that it’s just ocd, but in the back of my mind i slightly don’t believe her, and its making me scared that i AM like those people and im gonna act on something. sometimes in social moments i get a quick thought of me being an outcast because im like those people who are sick in the head and act on that stuff, and it just makes me feel like i truly am gonna eventually act on something. another thing that bothered me is earlier my mom yelled at me for not doing school work (it was well deserved im really slacking on it) and i had like no reaction to her screaming. it had me thinking what if i have no empathy etc etc, and what if i get mad that she yelled at me and i do something involving those thoughts. how do i TRULY know it’s ocd? like i try to remind myself and be like “dude, your therapist said it’s ocd, she isn’t wrong” but the back of my mind is like “she is wrong, it’s not ocd and she just happened to misdiagnose you. you are gonna act on those thoughts and it’s your fate”. please someone respond if you read all of this, im really struggling
