Someone try and help. My worry is people think I'm a pedo when I'm not and that I'll get sent to prison when I'm innocent I've never harmed a child and never would. I worry I make even the child itself uncomfortable because when stuff like toilet habits are mentioned I go bright red and panicky cause I look shifty, and imagine if a parent asked their child if someone touched them inappropriately, they might find it funny and joke around saying yes and now I'm super worried that this post will make people think I'm a pedo but I swear on God's name I've never harmed a child and never plan on doing so. I fucking hate ocd so much I can't live a normal life, I can't stop thinking the worst possible situations and scenarios.

OCD is the shifty bugger. You are MissLovely ❤️

I don't feel suicidal at the moment, and I have spoke to my dr about feeling suicidal before, but these thoughts have often made me want to kill myself because it all gets too much

I’m sorry:( Ik ocd isn’t logical but becoming suicidal over thinking that someone might think you’re a pedo means you’re def not one. Maybe it’d be helpful to give your ocd a face and picture it standing next to you when ur around a kid as a way to visualize the fact that ocd (which is separate/external from you) is the shifty one. So the kid sees you, MissLOVELY, and then some weirdo who isn’t you.

Re reading this I doubt any child would lie and say someone touched them inappropriately when they hadn't, but what if cause I look so weird they say I don't remember cause they might think I could have in the past cause I look so scared around them, cause I met a pedo once when I was little and now I'm grown up I look back and literally don't know if anything happened when people ask me I say I don't remember

Suicide is not the answer. OCD is really hard and you are amazing. You are not a pedo and they might just think kids make you uncomfortable!! That’s true for plenty of people no matter their thoughts surrounding kids. It’s the OCD, it’s not truly who you are and I think you know that

I know I'm not a pedo. I get intrusive thoughts yes, but I'd never act on them that would make me feel violently ill. I know I'm not, I just can't deal with thinking everyone thinks I am. I just never want to be around the youngsters in my family. They always want to be around me tho. But they do pick up on my anxiety and I think they realise it's them making me anxious sometimes cause I always try to sit on a different sofa and they notice. I wouldn't even let them sit on my lap I told them my leg was getting numb but I was scared I was ganna get a groinal response and they'd feel it even though I'm a woman. It's all horrible I hate my head it's hell
