Know the guidelines for your state. But in general, unless what you did is excessively criminal.. they probably won’t report you. Most “real events” for ocd are grey area subjects. That’s why it’s so hard for our brain to see it’s not real danger.

This is why I hate myself and want to die. My real event waa when I was a kid and my brain keeps telling me I am a horrible person. I def hate myself and I really wish to die soon, as I think I dont deserve my life.

When I first started treatment with NOCD, I was struggling so bad with harm and suicide OCD. I thought for sure my therapist would call the cops on me or have me involuntarily committed to a psych ward. Neither happened. A therapist who specializes in OCD has heard it all before. They won't be shocked or surprised by anything you tell them. A therapist who understands will understand the difference between an intrusive thought and true intention. They are NOT the same thing.

Telling a partner about POCD
Hello everyone! Is there anyone who told their partners that you experienced POCD in the past or that you are experiencing right now? How did they handle it? Did they understand it? Were they supportive? I'm creating future scenarios in my mind that I need to confess this to a future partner.

Compulsions
Less than a year ago, I had a very big anxiety flare up to the point that I felt as though I needed to report to the police / harm myself. I ended up leaving an anonymous tip at the police hotline about something that I know I didn’t even do but everything told me I had to or else I will go to jail. And similarly after that I called the help line and explained I had unwanted intrusive thoughts and I didn’t think I deserved to live for having those thoughts. After these many months and working with my therapist, I’ve been able to feel a lot less anxious around this topic and now I’m getting lots of anxiety about what I did that time when I was so anxious. I gave in to my compulsions and confessed for stuff that I know sounds bad saying out loud but only certain people will understand I would never do. So now I’m just looking for someone to relate and perhaps let me know that I don’t have anything to worry about? I know it’s bad to seek reassurance but I’m not sure where to go. And I’m worried I’m going to keep incriminating myself.
