I wake up every morning with unease waiting for intrusive thoughts to appear. It's a dread I have

Really? I have always experienced groinals looking at same sex. Before I had servere sexual orientation ocd. I had pocd years back and got it with that theme. But now I'm scared as to why I got it with sexual material with same sex! Also I get it watching a crime drama programme. Like with madeleine mcann and when I was reading James bulger book

Yeah it usually happens because of the result of an intrusive thought or exposure to sexual material of any kind (ex: the description of a sexual crime) your brain just sees “sex” and sends it arrosual signals. It doesn’t mean you actually desire those things or feel a genuine attraction

I almost never get those thankfully but the few times I do they suck! I try to remind myself of how I’m feeling in that moment and I’m never feeling happy so I’m like “it’s just ocd”

groinal response is for sure normal even if you do not have OCD. i think the key when having groinal responses with OCD is to not answer to them. when they start happening, we often panic because OCD tricks us into thinking "do i like this thing" and we fall down the rabbit hole of compulsions. next time you get groinal responses, just accept that you're getting them. you don't need to figure out why you are. OCD will try to convince you there is a reason.

Yeah everyone ocd or not can experience groinals. Ocd just makes you obsess about it

But I would get it even if it was an unattractive woman or some grotesque woman. But I didn't have hocd then. And I get it more at women and if I wanted to get aroused by men I don't as quick

Yes, I have groinal responses to everything. I’m a woman in a straight long term committed relationship and i experience groinal responses with women in media more than I do anything else. I experienced this before ocd, but not as intense as I do now.

How did your so-ocd feel when it started?
For me it was a weird intrusive thought and after that I slowly started developing anxiety and I felt a weird thing like I was losing my attraction to girls. Then I woke up one day in complete panic cuz it felt like I had lost feelings for girls suddenly and I started searching online how to know if you’re gay if sexuality changes suddenly and I took some gay tests or sexuality tests online. Chat gpt was a big thing back then too. That was before therapy and before I knew what ocd is.Can anyone relate?

Okay so In the moment I get intrusive thoughts about children which I hate. I get the gronal responses which I always so many compultions after. My ocd is very bad and I’m showering and changing my bedding around 8 times. Therapists have told me I’m the worse they’ve ever known. That’s how bad my life is atm. I hate this disorder. I want to know if ocd can cause these things as it will help me to fight my compulsions and just except it’s ocd… In the moment the gronal responses are genuinely pleasurable and I struggle to ignore them and stop them, in the moment t I want them even if it was due to a thought of a kid My OCD will tell me I’m aroused I’ll feel aroused then when moving around in my bed it’ll tell me to make my vagina touch my bedding for a feeling while I’m turning over and I purposely do it in the moment… I hate it. After I do so many compilations, it’s not even me it’s like someone else controlling my body When I try to fight my compulsions I think in my mind “I like this anyways” and actually like the thoughts and gronal responses over the children, which then makes me not be able to fight them. For example my ocf was telling me to spray my feet with anti back, but then I tried to fight it and I was thinking to myself “nah l like this one I like this feeling over the kid it’s the real me” like I didn’t even feel stressed from it it’s like I wanted it. Of corse after these I do lots and many compultions Please I just want to know if ocd can do this
