Does anyone else try to convince themselves they sexually assaulted someone or convince themselves someone sexually assaulted them? I feel so alone and have gotten to the point of suicidal because of these thoughts. I would love to know if anyone else feels this way. I’ve gotten a lot better with this but have not met anyone who thinks this way so it’s isolating.
I’m sorry to hear you feel that way,, you’re not alone, I also have similar thoughts, sometimes I feel like I make up memories I know never happened when it gets that bad,, and it’s very anxiety inducing. But don’t give up. I hope we all get the help we need, stay strong we’re all rooting for you❤️
@MemoM Thank you so much❤️
I’ve definitely had these thoughts before. to the point where they make me physically ill. You’re definitely not alone ♥️
@rorie SAME. I used to get physically ill from them all the time before realizing I had ocd. Thank you for sharing❤️
I am so sorry you’re experiencing this. Everyone has intrusive thoughts, but those of us with OCD get stuck on ours. OCD is ego-dystonic, meaning the intrusive thoughts/images/feelings go against our values and make us uncomfortable. OCD can make you doubt literally anything. But you are not alone, I know I’ve experienced this fear too and I’m sure others have as well. While it is scary, recovery is possible. I definitely recommend giving NOCD a call for their free consultation. On another note, I completely understand how these feelings and fear can make you feel suicidal. But please know you won’t feel this way forever; it will pass and you WILL get better. If you ever feel that way again, give the Suicide Hotline a call (call or text 988) or visit their website here: https://988lifeline.org/ I believe in you and we’re here for you!
Honestly, this is so common in OCD- OCD makes you feel never quite sure enough. The good news is that this is very much treatable. You can get to a place where this isn't tormenting you and where you are living your life in recovery. Have you done any ERP? There can be so many reasons why people don’t start treatment for OCD. I know that for me, I didn’t really know that this was a real illness and that others experienced the same types of symptoms. I was embarrassed and felt ashamed. When I finally opened up about what I was experiencing there was such a sense of relief that washed over me, just knowing that the OCD specialist didn’t scare or run off because of what I told them was pretty amazing. I am so grateful that I finally opened up because I learned that I wasn’t alone and that there was a treatment that could help me. And it did! Our Care Team will typically begin with a 15-minute call to discuss treatment, answer any questions you have, and book your first appointment. Please feel free to schedule a convenient time that works best for you here: https://learn.nocd.com/scheduler
Ok so my main theme is SOOCD and it eats me alive. When I was being bullied in school I became obsessed with talking to strangers on Omegle and began sexting people- including girls and idk if it’s because I thought it was wrong in my head or something which is why I enjoyed it? But immediately after I’d be like ew can’t believe I did that because I was just so horny for everything. I also watched lesbian porn too so this is something that I did for a couple of years since I was 16 but never something I wanted to do in real life. At the time I didn’t care it was some fun but I’m really traumatised by it ever since. I know I’m straight but my mind tells me because I did this online in the past there is no way I am straight. I feel so alone in the world I’ve been to therapy, had advice from several people but I just can’t listen to anyone because I know I’m the only one who has done that. I feel like it is sooooo hard to move past real events when you have OCD because people’s worst fear for me actually happened. So my OCD will forever convince me that I’m gay because of these events. I hate myself so much and always have- I don’t see a way past this and my life is slowly going downhill in every aspect because of it.
Hey , I feel like I’m alone with getting intrusive and unwanted thoughts during sex / mast3rbation and when I’m finishing and it makes me feel disgusted and that I’m a disgusting person and that I agree with the thoughts I get and I get really upset after and guilty and regret doing it Please can someone tell me if they experience things like this and if it’s not just me It’s something I’ve been really struggling with but I try not to let it get in the way of me having a sex life
Can someone please tell me I’m not alone? Can you share your experience with getting intrusive S3xual thoughts please Because I feel like it’s not talked about and it’s something I really struggle with and I’m scared I’m the only one getting these disturbing and fucked up thoughts and scared I want them and that it’s actually me and not my ocd For example : I feel like I’m constantly constantly getting S3xualised thoughts of people I’m related to especially when I’m trying to have S3xual time
