Hi there,
I'm just wondering for the purposes of my form, for instance I would benefit from the support of a person to encourage me to undertake exposure therapy in the moment (I get therapy but it's only once a week) but I do NOT actually have a person to support me in the moment.
So I get very little support due to living on my own. As an example due to OCD because of rituals involved a simple stir fry would take me around 1hr and a half. I know this isn't normal, if I had an expert in psychological support, there at the time they would be able to support me to not carry out compulsions but this is a very unlikely scenario, so where would I stand in terms of which descriptor I would use? Not just anybody would be able to help me, but I would benefit to have the support of a professional there at the time, exposure therapy is very difficult and I am very resistant to it.
Many thanks
S
