I'm so scared? It like if my mind has convinced me
Can someone with so ocd explain if they have sexual urges?
Can someone with so ocd explain if they have sexual urges?
I had a really bad spike and it makes me convinced that I actually want to do those sexual acts at the point where I’m unsure if this is ocd anymore but then I also ask myself if I really want to do it and I’m like no I don’t want to but why do I also feel convinced that I really want to too? But I also don’t want to do it. I think ocd can just be so powerful and really confuse you! Like a month ago I would easily say “ah no I don’t want to do that” but for some reason idk if my brain has consumed me so much where I’m now like “yea I guess I want to do that or I wouldn’t mind it” but I also don’t want to do it? Like it’s such a confusing thought process! It’s so scary cuz I don’t want this!
Sometimes ill agree with them and say yes i wanna so and so but then i get worried i said it lol. Ocd is a lie monster nothing more. Just go about your day
@Sp1999 Yea I get you on the worrying part lol. It’s like a month ago I’d be like ah no I don’t want to do that. But I think my brain is so consumed by this that now I’m like yea I guess I wanna do this and it doesn’t bother me anymore and I don’t mind the thoughts but then I get worried about it lol and I know it’s a lie monster it’s just hard to believe it’s a lie when it starts to feel so real sometimes :(
@Kassandrawithak You basically just read my mind lmaooo . Brain being accustomed to the ocd brain thoughts is a real pain. I checked myself today bc my brain was real convincing about liking "big wangs" so i ended up on google images and its confusing but i knew deep down i dont wanna be on there looking at that stuff
@Kassandrawithak I just hope one day it all stops suddenly and i no longer wanna check or anything. Just want to be certain im straight
@Sp1999 I totally feel you! It’s like I miss the old me where I never worried about this and lived my life and was comfortable with who I was and now it’s like I’m constantly questioning everything it sucks. I know we’ll get better though even if it takes time I know we’ll get to a better point
@Kassandrawithak It feels real this time ... i hate this
@Sp1999 What’s going on you can talk to me. Also if you want some of us made a discord that you can add us there too. Or just write it here whatever you’d like!
@Kassandrawithak I havw discord ill join if its easier to talk :) !
@Kassandrawithak Me and my gf went grocery shopping amd shes got a friend whos a man who identifies as a women but tbh her friend doesn't really look like a guy and also complimented saying im handsome and i felt like i blushed but i did smile for the compliment but im just triggered from the thoughts as well. It felt like i liked em for that or felt interested but i domt wanna be because thats still a ma.
@Sp1999 Rn I would just take a deep breath and remind yourself that hey a compliment is a compliment it always feels nice to get complimented regardless of who gives you the compliment! But I do know how distressing this can feel. Once this girl who was bi appeared on YouTube and she really looked like a boy and even tho all I said was “woah she really looks like a guy” my mind completely messed with me on that one and made me think if I saw her I’d like her and I was like no no no I don’t want that
@Sp1999 What’s your discord tag? I’ll add you to the group :) there’s a ton of us sharing similar experiences!
@Kassandrawithak Its so scary but luckily im not trying to look for reassurance. Although i already got a little . It got tense and sometimes i try to reason with myself like dude its a compliment youve gotten compliments from everyone but its cause its a trans man or woman whichever they call it it messes with me . I know im straight and it cant change but the down and feelings that come with make it hard to see

@Sp1999 Ok just sent you a friend request then it’ll let me add you to the group!
@Sp1999 It’s one of those things where you have to take the compliment and let it pass which is obviously so much harder to do then say. You’ve got this and I can tell your practicing sitting with the thought and not seeking too much reassurance. Unfortunately we ourselves can sneakily give ourselves reassurance which we have to stop doing or else the cycle keeps happening 😭
@Kassandrawithak Gotchu will add you soon ! & most definitely but its dumb that reassurance cant help, its like wisdom but even that's reassurance and can be harmful. I feel like i cant trust my own brain or self.
Can it also make you think, you been in denial your whole life?
Same thing happened to me yesterday! It was getting so bad where it felt too real where I thought I was just always like this and maybe always in denial.
I know it's ocd, since I was dealing with pocd. But my therapist on Monday said I was probably in denial
Do you have social media?
I don’t know if my hormones are extra wild this month or what, but I have been having so many POCD thoughts lately. It feels like I enjoy them in the moment, and then a few seconds later, I get this tiny flicker of *wait I don’t think I actually want to enjoy that.* It’s scaring me a lot. I was watching adult videos for the first time in about a year, since I had been avoiding them because of my OCD. I know they are not good for anyone, but I felt like i could (ironically it felt like a tiny win that my OCD had calmed down enough). But while watching, I had like 3 separate POCD thoughts. And it felt like I liked them. Like genuinely *liked* them. I don’t know if maybe my body was mixing up physical pleasure and mental pleasure, and then my brain inserted those not okay thoughts into the situation, which got tangled up with the pleasure responses I felt mentally and physically. It is all really confusing. I just feel so scared. I know OCD thoughts are supposed to feel real, and that once you get desensitized to the anxiety, they lose their power. But this feels like I am *actually enjoying* the thoughts, and that makes me want to cry. I’m scared that I actually like these thoughts when I’m really aroused :( Please help.
‼️Sexual Content‼️ I have a new fear that I have a paraphiliac disorder and google says that people who do have these disorders experience distress about them which scares me so bad because I feel distressed about the potential of having one so isn’t that like the same thing? I’m scared that I already have one, and the distress I’m experiencing isn’t OCD but instead a side effect of being paraphiliac. I hate this Also what’s even worse is that I don’t even feel that anxious. Like yes I am anxious but not as much as I feel like I should be and I’m relatively calm. I feel like I should be more anxious for it to be OCD and I should be more anxious when faced with the threat of being paraphiliac and even though I am anxious, it’s no where near as bad as it should be or has been in the past. What does that say about me? (I don’t want reassurance, all I want is advice to help me cope through OCD spikes) I’m so scared. I don’t want any of this. I don’t want to do paraphiliac things I don’t want to do anything that they do because those things make me uncomfortable but I feel like that’s what someone with a paraphiliac disorder would say. I am so f*cked
I can't look at 18+ videos, comics, etc. I am straight, but SO-OCD tries to make me think I am not And the thoughts turns to feelings, and makes me scared, uncomfortable, sad, because I know this is not me. And when I try to imagine myself being with the woman on adult videos, and comics, my OCD gives gronal response not at the girl, and it fills me with fear, and anxiety, I always loved, and was attracted to women but I can't and it caused me to be depressed, and I keep ruminating I keep trying to focus on her, but it's so bad that I avoid those all the time now. I am wondering has anyone gone through something like this, or currently is, and wondering how you have done to combat this!
