It’s the worst ocd I’ve ever had. I actually think I rubbed against my dog at one point. Or was it just the couch because they moved. Idk I did it because I reached a point where I thought okay I’m either going to kill myself or do this and find out if I’m into animals. This was 5 years ago maybe and I think about it every day of my life thinking I’m going to go to hell. I can’t remember exactly what happened I don’t know if part of it was a false memory or what. I’ll never know and a lot of times I wish I wasn’t alive because I can’t deal with the guilt and disgust in myself

Yes I get sexual thoughts about animals, especially my dogs. I also get sexual thoughts about Religious figures like Jesus Christ, and God. I try not to watch wildlife programmes or videos , especially of animals mating. Cuz it triggers off sexual thoughts about it. And imagine I am the one who is with that animal at the time. I suffer alot of physical harmful thoughts to myself to yes. I am often curious of how it would feel if I put a metal knife down a live toaster, or to touch a hot ring on the oven with the metal knife. My family try to keep me away from any electrical items now, just to try to keep me safe.

It’s definitely an uncomfortable feeling I understand ? But you are most definitely not alone! I used to feel alone and disgusted with myself and I times I do, but I remember that this is what ocd does to us. You have to remember you are bigger than that!

I’ve been feeling the urge to avoid intimacy or purposefully engage (for reassurance that I won’t give into a compulsion) because of intrusive thoughts and fear that I’ll “check/test” my reactions. My OCD is making me so scared that I’ll purposefully think of a child and try to see if I like it. It’s so complicated but I guess I’m mentally checking if I would mentally check during intimacy. I’ve even envisioned myself checking and it’s making me so nauseous. I know it’s a compulsion like any other but the sound of “touching yourself to the thought of a child” sounds atrocious and vile. I’m terrified I’ll automatically start checking next time I am being intimate. I truly feel so worried. If anyone has gone through something similar, I’d appreciate hearing your experience. Or if anyone has any advice?

Does anyone imagine they are doing their harm thoughts during an action, making you feel like you acted on your thoughts? For example, someone gave me a hug and at the last second I imagined I was touching something I shouldn’t during the hug? I want to make it clear it’s something I have zero desire to do! But the problem is, I thought it on purpose and it makes me sick !! Obviously nothing happened but my mind is telling me that was me trying to do it. Even though it was physically impossible to do. Am I a monster or could this be OCD? I’m freaking out and don’t want to be here anymore. I feel like I’m the exception and that this isn’t OCD. I know I post about this stuff a lot but I’m struggling and don’t know what to do.
