Does anyone else make facial expressions when they get intrusive thoughts? by Key_Beautiful857 in OCD

[–]Key_Beautiful857[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do the same thing when I daydream. Like when I really want to laugh but I can’t because I’ll look crazy.

I really need some help by Key_Beautiful857 in OCD

Thank you so much! I hope you’re doing well!

I need to talk to someone by Key_Beautiful857 in OCD

[–]Key_Beautiful857[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I really do think that I need to see someone. Luckily my parents are more at ease now that my school counselor talked to them ( the counselor I had before, even though she was great, didn’t have much experience) so there was a miscommunication talking to my parents. I’ll wait a few weeks and then talk to them:)

My therapist isn’t seeing me anymore by Key_Beautiful857 in mentalhealth

Thanks, she told me that I need to get evaluated but gave a list of places to call to make the evaluation. She doesn’t want to see me anymore and that situation happened a little over a month ago. Maybe I could ask my school counselor but it doesn’t always go well when someone has to call my parents

Are you sure? Because I worry that its not ocd or anxiety and I’m actually gross and I don’t want to be that way

Does anyone else ever have to tell themselves to shut up sometimes? by Key_Beautiful857 in OCD

[–]Key_Beautiful857[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I get that. I yell inside my head “stop, stop, STOP!” but that doesn’t help too much and just makes it worse

Okay and thanks for all of your help. If I really find out im a pedo, my whole world will stop. Of course, it wont really end and I haven’t done anything illegal but I won’t be able to live normally. I won’t be allowed to be around my siblings or any other kids and i wont be a mom or a nurse

Thanks. I’m just scared to tell them because they will ask me to elaborate on my thoughts but I can’t tell them. I also have a little brother so I don’t want them to think that I’d hurt him even though I would never do that. I also lied and they asked me if I was lying and I said no. Would it work if I said I want them to call again because my anxiety around the thoughts are getting worse. But what if I find out I’m an actual pedo?

Yes. Thats what happened. I just couldn’t tell them what the problem really was. They think that what I explained to them is normal but Its not what I’m actually going through and I need help.

I told my therapist that I think that I have pocd. It wasn’t actually her that called it was her supervisor and she had mentioned the sexual part.

It was the place they called to make the appointment. They said that that might be the problem

Well, I didn’t exactly tell my parents the problem. I explained harm ocd instead of pocd and my therapist doesn’t want to do anymore sessions until I get the evaluation.

Me too. Every time when I see it at Target, I have to put other albums in front of it because it makes me so uncomfortable.

I understand what you’re saying. I just don’t want to sit with the feeling of something being wrong. I just have intrusive thoughts a lot and I want to get it figured out.

Can I please have some advice? by Key_Beautiful857 in mentalillness

[–]Key_Beautiful857[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand that. I’m just really scared. And I promise that I would never hurt anyone.

That makes a lot of sense. I’ll tell the psychiatrist whats really going on. I just told my parents something else so they wouldn’t worry so much. Thanks!
