It Makes Me Feel Horrible, it's to the Point where I Cannot Look at Myself in the Mirror

And its a Genuine Fear for Me Because I have always Seen Myself as a Too h***y, even as a Kid (Again Sorry for the TMI), and Idk if its due to me being a Teen at the Peak of my Hormones phase, or because I was raised in a Religious house and being Sexual always made me feel guilty or Gross, but I have always felt like a "Deviant" even tho I know there are Far Far Much Worse people out there

And my OCD is Sexual, so that's why I get a Genuine Fear that this OCD isn't Too Unrealistic of Me even tho I Hate Everything about it and Fear it

Hi to anyone who has HOCD or has recovered from HOCD, did you ever get thoughts of like when literally anything abt s*x or relationships was mentioned and you immediately thought of the same s*x even though you didn’t want to and then you try to think about how you want to be with the opposite s*x but that nagging doubt in the back of your mind is saying you don’t want it? Idk why I have the t

It's Stressing me out rn because I'm Not sure if this OCD or Something I would actually do without OCD, I've Definitely had some Low Points, but I'm Sure I Would've Matured By Now, and I don't think I would've looked at it that way if My OCD (Which is Sexual in Nature) wouldn't make me focus on this type if stuff, but Idk, My OCD Makes me Feel like I would

You have to also resist seeking reassurance and looking to relieve the anxiety. Just sit with it and let it be there

Hey this is classic ocd your brain is trying to protect u so it sends u all the urges and feelings like this to make it feel as real as possible. Disregard it all

I really reccomend you stop analyzing this and going over it. I have seen your posts all day and it is classic ocd coming from somebody who went through the exact situation. Start letting go of this and viewing it as ocd

Hi! I suffer from pocd and im in the later stages. This happened to me its 100% normal ocd can make you feel anything but it does go away with time and recovery work

Oh yeah for like 2 weeks i just had an urge to m********e while watching a show that I liked but i took it as ocd and didnt give it my attention and it went away slowly over time. I also had the false memories where I had feelings for a girl like how you explained it was my exact situation. And im a girl so I dont get erections but the groinal responses were intense for me as well.

Depression is extremely common in ocd and this is completely normal

Hi! So the line between ocd and genuine problems is that genuine problems are problems that someone without ocd would get. For example, a genuine problem would be if you and your boyfriend got over a fight about something that happened like in real life not in your head but an ocd problem is fearing your boyfriend will leave you from the fight

Try to look and evaluate what you are doing. Any type of reassaurance behaviors or worrying or self reasaurance or rumination keeps ocd alive. Hoe long have you been doing erp? Depending on how long you have been doing it may feel like its not working the first month

Hey question about intrusive thoughts. I don’t get much anxiety anymore just a few panic attacks here and there but I still get HOCD thoughts. Now they are just irritating and I want them to go away but I’m worried abt the no anxiety. Is this still an intrusive thought? How do u know?
