I understand exactly what you’re going through, trust me I’ve been there you’re not alone. If you see a good looking child your ocd will basically try to torture you and make you think that you are attracted to this child sexually and this what your ocd brain does, but if you use your logical brain you know deep down if you were alone with a child you would NEVER harm them. I’ve been suffering with pocd for as long as 2 years and it gets better trust me what helps me is stop the avoidance of children and to have trust in yourself, because when you get the exposure you it’s helps to get rid of the ocd intrusive thoughts and makes you have more confidence with who you are.

You’re so not alone.. mine also is mostly intrusive feelings and not thoughts.. but it really depends on the day. Recently my ocd settles more out in intrusive toubrs about supporting p’s, cause i think some p’s who don’t do bad atuff, i feel sorry for them cause they didn’t choose for this. And I also saw once a video of an older man (just looking for that man) and he was saying some illegal stiff ig (don’t remember 100% and it makes me crazy) and I remember liking it cause it was an older man, but i just feel that way about older man and now I’m afraid cause it was because of that and now I’m just going crazy.. my mind i only see black and I can’t figure it out

I’ve been dealing with POCD for months and fake arousal is the worse, especially now it’s changed to when I’m scrolling on an app, etc and happen to come across a child, my Pocd makes me have fake arousal as usually I do a compultion such as trying to stop the arousal from happening such as tending my body, etc. however, recently I’ve enjoyed the fake arousal and wanted it to happen because it feels “nice” and in the moment I “want” the fake arousal over the “child” and in the moment I feel “attracted to the child but after this I’m met with guilt and so so many compultions such as showing, washing my bedding etc etc CAN OCD MAKE YOUT BODY ENJOY SOMETHING!!? Please help!!!

How is this OCD? Who with Pocd thinks about a naked child ???? I was over here thinking if I’m actually attracted to kids because I find some of them good looking you know and my little cousin I have thoughts about her too and I was thinking about her naked but I wasn’t aroused or nothing so that’s where I’m confused It was intentional so does that make me a p*do?

18+ TW! Involves sexual content I have learning disabilities which means im always going to be 3-5 years mentally behind from my actual age… when I was 14 I remember finding people saying they work with kids “attractive” and I remember mastu*** over a kid around 5+ but when I was 14 I was either mentally age 11 or 9. So I didn’t know it was wrong, and as soon as I realised I stopped. People say I was young and it’s okay but I remember finding people saying they even walked past a nursery “attractive” but I don’t know if this is even the right word. Maybe cute? Because I find different emotions hard to tell the difference between, so maybe it’s cute rather than attractive. I never ever had intentions to do anything to younger individuals, it was just me finding people saying they worked with them etc attractive… which my ocd now plays on, because my friend mentioned they were working with kids but idk if it was the real me or not but I genuinely felt like I found it attractive and it was giving my so many groinal responses which then made me feel genuinely aroused like I wanted to do things. This plays on my mind because my ocd will always say “but you did/do find stuff like this attractive” but this literally stops me from eating, sleeping or anything. I can’t break from my compultions because what if I do genuinely find it attractive. I don’t think it’s even attractive maybe it’s cute? Like I find it cute… but cuteness can give people feelings down there I guess. I think because if my learning disabilities I found it hard to know the difference between “attraction” and cute so I did stuff over it because it gave me that feeling down there but that could of been cuteness feeling. I just need some support on this.
