Is it foul for me to ask my (black) therapist if I’m doing racist shit 😭 I’m autistic and doing my best but I’m also an anxious ass bitch esp abt accidentally being a bad person
But I was thinking maybe a therapist would be okay because I’ll be paying her? Maybe I could get a racism coach too?? I’m worried that the racism coach would think I’m being

Girl that is definitely your OCD.
The intrusive thoughts of what if I’m secretly a bad person are classic ocd

It would be worth bringing up to your therapist even for that reason

This actually makes me feel so much better about bringing it up to her bcos I’d wanna ask a white therapist too, though I do still think the black therapist would have a more accurate answer based on her lived experiences but maybe that’s racist idk 😭

Okay also sorry can I ask, is it an OCD thing that I’m worried that I’m only volunteering as virtuesignalling and not because I dont know it but I secretly don’t care about the right things?

More on the morality part of it than the religious side

Thank you so much for this 😭 it hurts to learn I might have another brand of crazy than I was aware of lol but it makes me feel a lot better to know that it might just be in my brain and not actually that I’m a horrible person. And maybe I won’t always feel this way.

If it helps-
Just as a general rule MOST bad people don’t spend hours of their life worrying about if they’re a bad person. They’re just bad people. The fact that you worry means you actually care about being a good person
