  • Great app!

    All around great for people with OCD. And an awesome company that really really cares. I really love how they’re integrating real ERP therapy into the app with real therapists. This will change the lives of people living in remote areas with little to no access to professional, specialized OCD treatment. I also love SOS - but it’s a little buggy: the compulsion prevention message statement gets cut off if you go above a certain number of words, and the timer goes buck wild if you look at another app, or if you phone goes to sleep, etc. Not huge deals, but when you’re freaking out the last thing you want is to deal with a winky app. If they could nail the SOS feature I’d give it 4 stars.

    Glad you like the app! We released a fix for the SOS timer on May 2nd. If you are still having issues, we would love to look further into it! Send us an email at info@nocdhelp.com
  • Great app, but not for LGBT+

    I would have given this five stars if after my first and only post I was able to go there for support too. Word to the wise, don’t talk about being accepting of your sexuality, because apparently you’re “too far recovered” and “some people really need help on this app and you’re triggering us”. I DID go to this app for support, but apparently according to some of the people who use the app I’m not the type of person who is suffering enough to need it and my very existence is offensive. I’m sorry if this sounds passive aggressive, but ... protect yourself if you’re LGBT, cause even on support groups for mental health we’re not always free from discrimination.

  • didn’t help me

    this app may be super helpful for other people and I’m happy it works for them! it did not help me at all. I felt like the chat I chose for myself based on the OCD I have was nothing even close to the topic. people would talk about other forms of OCD in the chat and I didn’t think it was very helpful. I also feared it would make my OCD worse, reading what other people have worries about and then I start to think about those. exposure is what really helps me for my OCD and the app didn’t help me in that sense because I can say I did it, but I may not have followed through with it. I think it greatly depends on the type and severity of OCD everyone has. I’m so glad to see it helped other people, it just wasn’t for me!

  • Amazing app

    For someone who has been diagnosed with ocd this app is an amazing and safe place to talk about whatever you have been going through. It is anonymous and feels completely supportive and safe. Would recommend to anyone with ocd.
  • Get this app!!

    Before I got this app I thought I was alone but now that I have read all of the things people have been going through, I found out that I have a lot in common with others and I feel like a genuinely hood person now :)
  • NOCD review!

    I just wanted to say a HUGE Thankyou to NOCD, specifically Ted and Anil! The app is such a helpful resource so that people don’t feel alone in their struggles. I know it’s been so nice to have on my phone for times when I was especially down or struggling and needed to know that other people got what you were going through. Ted and Anil have been so so helpful and kind! They’ve bent over backwards to accommodate me and to extend discounts where I needed them. Ted did my assessment and was extremely thorough, empathetic and took as much time as I needed. He created a judgment free zone for me to tell everything that I was going through without having to feel afraid and gave me the diagnosis that I needed. Anil also was willing to give me a call and let me know any information I might need. Overall, I’m extremely grateful and impressed by this organization and by the people who work for it. It’s very professional and still personable which is ESSENTIAL for mental health patients! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou! I wouldn’t be where I am today with out the help of NOCD.

  • Great tool!

    This app is so wonderful in providing a community of people to provide support and just help talk with you about what you’re going through. It’s like an online, private support group! At the same time the app also provides insight and knowledge about the different forms of OCD so you can get a better understanding of your anxieties and how to deal with them. I definitely recommend this for anyone struggling with OCD

  • Easy to use and really helps

    The community part of this app is really helpful when you need to talk to other people with OCD. The tools are also helpful, my therapist loves that I’ve been using them between our sessions.
  • This app is made for Hollywood’s portrayal of OCD

    The exercise doesn’t work for things that happen randomly to you. For example, I don’t like my alarm being set for random hours when something originally had happened to me or making a wish for something and then a few hours later something negative happened. Then it says “expose yourself to it”. I’m not at a wishing well to throw another penny and making a wish again. AND I don’t need to set my alarm right now! So it’s not bothering me. This is for people who don’t like their hands getting physically messy or their books aren’t perfectly in order. FYI that’s not real OCD, that’s OCD portrayed by Hollywood. Real OCD is not being able to go to the bathroom without flushing the toilet 3 times or something bad will happen or walking up and down your staircase 10 times til it “feels right” or refusing to touch certain people because you think something bad will happen. The last OCD I had was when I was smelling Yankee candles, and if I smelled a bad one or it wasn’t a good smell and left the store, something bad would arise. What am I supposed to drive 45 mins away to the Yankee candle store just to do this app? That’s real OCD. Washing your hands 18 times is Hollywood OCD. Maybe get some people who have actual OCD to fix this app. OCD is almost superstitious.

    Hi there, We're sorry the app has been a confusing experience for you so far. Your feedback is really helpful as we keep working to make it better. Since a few of us have OCD too, we definitely understand the frustration when it seems like people are talking about "Hollywood OCD" all the time. Many of our users with similar needs use our SOS feature to start practicing immediately when random obsessions and compulsions set in. As always, feel free to send us an email at info@nocdhelp.com. Thanks again!
  • Very promising—a way to turn off forums

    I downloaded this to preview it for my middle schooler. I would really like to have him use the app, but I can’t seem to figure out how to turn off the forums. I’m finding things in the comments that aren’t appropriate for him. Am I missing where I could do this? If not, a feature to hide that part of the app would be a very useful addition. Thanks!
