Yes- sometimes CBT can make OCD worse because you may fall into mental obsessions/compulsions. Look for a therapist who does ERP (exposure and response prevention). An SSRI will also likely help. Good luck!

Gotcha. I have! Sadly when I call, they’ve not been open to new patients. I’ve looked all over the state (and looking for a female provider which also narrows the pool).

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?

I met a girl 2 months ago. Started as friends and escalated to more 3 weeks ago. The whole time she kept telling me that I was kindest person she's met, the most manly man, she liked my strength and sensitivity. She said I gave her her most pleasurable "experiences".
Last week was the last time we spoke or saw each other. When i left she gave me a very long, tight hug. We were supposed to have plans today. I've been msging all week and being left on read.
