Who knows? I don’t think those people on helplines have degrees in psychology and stuff.

they are licensed counsellors for this specific helpline and a lot of them have degrees etc but it still makes me nervous 😭

So rang OCD UK and OCD action today which are all charities and volunteers for ocd who have had the disorder themselves. I asked them about an action I did, and they said they can’t offer reasurence however everything I’ve discussed with them follows ocd symptoms and what others have told them about their ocd too” Is this them basically hinting “yes it’s ocd” but they just can’t physically say it as it’s reasurence

I'm 15 turning 16 soon and I'm 100 percent convinced I have ocd.. I have been having major symptoms since I was 13, the constant what ifs, rumination, compulsions, guilt, anxiety from intrusive thoughts. I tried to open up about it to my parents when i was 13 but they dismissed it cause they don't believe in mental health.. I really want to get better. My parents won't listen to me and I don't wanna tell a teacher at school cause that would make things worse as they would just tell my parents and obviously since I'm 15 I can't afford therapy.. I don't know what to do :(

Okay so my parents don't really handle my ocd that well. For starters my contamination is getting worse (I'm 14) and keep exisivly washing my hands, or using toilet roll which is unfortunately really common. Now they are getting angry at me for using too much toilet roll... What do I do? There saying I'm ruining there lifes because of my ocd. I'm making there lifes miserable. And they don't COMMUNICATE or sit down with me and look me in the eyes and try sort it out WITH ME. they just go "STOP USING SO, MUCH TOILET ROLL" "you've broke another headset" "WE ARE ALLOWED TO BE PISSED AT YOU" and I'm getting self harm urges because there making me out to be such a bad person. Which obviously doesn't mix well with ocd.
