I just signed up an hour ago too. I’m not 100% sure which ones I have either. I seem to fit a lot categories. I signed up for a 15 minute consultation earlier, so that’ll happen later today. This website/community resource app came highly recommended from my OCD therapist, who thought that the multiple support groups offered on this app would help me more. I wish I could provide more information for you, but I thought maybe just sharing that it was my first time looking at this site too would make you feel better.

I appreciate that . I seem to have a lot of the symptoms also, just talking to people who are going through the same situations will help.

Also don’t forget to fill out the Diamon Screening Questionnaire once you secure a first session. I almost didn’t see mine under the “tasks” list under the “therapy” tab on this app! 30 questions go help your therapist help you better :)

The first session with your counselor will be an indepth assessment specifically OCD. The best thing I can suggest is be totally honest about your symptoms and the nature of your intrusive thoughts. The NOCD counselors understand OCD. There is nothing you can tell them they haven't heard before. I also recommend doing a little research on OCD subtypes. But make sure you don't let the research turn into a compulsion.

Newbie and mama searching for help
Hey all, This is so strange to share this, and I have been judged by others and misdiagnosed many times. About a year ago I worked with an OCD therapist and it was really triggering. For me my thoughts are mainly about suicidal ocd and harm ocd centered around my children of all things. Fear that I could or would want to hurt them, then feeling so horrible that I believe I’m suicidal then I go back and forth on that. After reading a few of your posts, it makes me truly have a bit of hope that I can overcome this.

I’m unsure if i have ocd…
i’m a new user on this app, I downloaded it just cause I was curious, I don’t really know if I have OCD. Because in school all I learned about OCD is things being out of place and having it to be perfect almost like perfectionism, but I’ve just recently realized there’s a whole kind of different types of OCD, some things I struggle with daily is a fear of bad things happening or almost like an impending doom of when is it gonna happen? I’m always in my head thinking feels like I’m having multiple conversations at once. Sometimes it doesn’t even feel like I’m having a conversation with myself. I have horrendous anxiety about everything and anything talking to people being around people. It just feels like it consumes my everyday life and I don’t know what to do. I can’t clearly remember anything from my childhood and some things I feel like I may be imagining I just don’t really feel like a person. I’m always thinking the worst in my relationship over analyzing and stressing out thinking of scenarios or thinking, my boyfriend‘s cheating on me. It almost all feels out of my control.
