I know it could feel like your life is ruined, but no it’s not, you’ll get over this my friend. It’s unbelievable in moment how it would be possible but it is. First of all, you haven’t slept, so your anxiety feels worse then and you don’t think clear. Are you talking to some therapist? Otherwise call some hotline, it really helps. And don’t feel ashamed! You’re not that horrible person you think you are ?⭐️

You are not a bad person, and youre never going to act on these thoughts. Sounds like you should try some ERP

I totally understand. I woke up this morning feeling anxious cause I had one to a dream. It’s so scary. You have to just really focus on understanding that this is the nature of the beast. It’s as common a symptom of OCD as any, I know how painful it is because it feels like it’s attacking the most joyous and personal part of yourself, your sexuality. I feel hijacked, or like this thing has been inside me this whole time. Also, people who don’t have OCD can experience this too. That’s also crucial to remember. Because the brain/body responds to ANYTHING sexual. Even the worst stuff

I was trying to sleep in an aunt house and I’m suffering from nightmares or when I take naps or sleep I dream horrible things, and I took a little nap and I was about to start having a nightmare and I woke up. There’s a person that lives here and he’s not even here but I was about to have a dream with him it’s so scary he’s not even my family member or anything. And like it’s a delicate topic. But it’s the feeling that I can’t even sleep sometimes without dreaming this things that are so scary . And the groinal responses are about to kill me ! This is truly destroying my life I don’t know what to do I don’t want to be like this but I’m too tired to stay awake and too tired to sleep

Can anyone help me to stop groinal hyperawareness when exposing myself to triggering images?? Every time I look at them I get groinal hyperawareness and it’s such a pain that every time I look I can feel literally everything down there😔

TW - Groinal Responses 18+ Also tmi As of the last week or two, I have no idea why or how, but the groinal responses have gotten so, so much worse... Today was so bad... And I'm still having a very hard time. Like, I don't even know if I want to say how bad it really is. It's beyond just obsessing about it; I have to try to distract myself so something doesn't actually happen from the groinal response (I'm intentionally being vague bc I don't want to say much about the situation). I'm seriously struggling... and I don't know what to do or how it can change... This is tmi too, but years ago I had another issue regarding groinal responses. And even just the thought of it made my body do something I would have thought couldn't have happened just from thinking and worrying about it happening [the thing my body did back then isn't as distressing as I'm worried about my body doing now] (and yes, I'm intentionally being vague again) My mind and body are very against me right now...
