What ' re you listening to ? I need some new music in my life . Please no starboy 😂 <| sep |> No , it ' s not good advice at all . Fearing the thoughts is the core reason you obsess . Considering they don ' t understand even the very basics of treatment , I highly recommend seeking another therapist . Look for someone who teaches ERP . In order for a therapist to understand how to treat OCD , they have to specifically study OCD treatment . This is the type you want to look for . Ask them questions when looking , don ' t be afraid ! What makes you qualified to treat OCD ? You ' re the one paying them . You ' re their customer . Don ' t think of doctors as gods , you must come into treatment with an open mind , both ways they could know what they ' re doing , they could give bad advice , we ' ll see ! It ' s good that you are questioning this ! That ' s the only way you ' ll find decent advice ! Always making sure it ' s right .
