I just worry that as I grow older into an adult, I’ll continue to be interested in the age I like now. Or like, their ‘baby faces’ before they become an adult. Do you guys get this?

Realx. Fear is what ocd uses against you also you are not a ped for thinking a boy 2 years younger is cute and you like him. But remember you said “I don’t wnat to” and ocd won’t use something that is important against you. So obviously it’s going to try to convince you whatever it takes and bring fear and doubt and feelings to suck you back into it’s circle but remember who you are as a person. You can do it❤️❤️

Hey guys! It’s nice to have people of a similar age to relate to. I’m 15 and I freak out a lot when I like someone a year or so younger as that’s a gap that divides kids and young adults! Puberty is a weird time and I just constantly worry about if I have had or WILL have crushes on pre-pubescent boys :(

Can I have some advice? Sorry to bother. I’m going away next week and there’s a boy coming. I remember 2 years ago he came and I found him quite fun etc. I’m 15 now and I know that he’s 2 years younger, so he’s 13 I presume. I’m terrified that I’ll go and develop a crush on him! I tend to like funny ‘rebellious’ boys, and he’s like that. But he’s younger and arhsjsjshhs I don’t want to like him! I always enjoy this holiday but I know that I won’t now, which sucks.

Exactly what above said! Also he’s only 2 years younger, that doesn’t mean anything hun! If you do or don’t it is nothing to be super anxious about! But also remember your OCD tries to convince you of things! Complicated but you can do it I believe in u!

of course but asking for reassurance (even accidentally) or confessing are both compulsions so try to stay away from that and just accept yourself❤️

Could being exposed to content as a kid affected me in this way?
Trying not to seek reassurance, but rather connect the dots on my OCD and possible reasons as to why I am the way I am. I have severe OCD (or at least I hope I do) mainly surrounding POCD. I've had symptoms of OCD the majority of my life but this theme has come up more recently. When I was a kid, and i'm talking 6-7, I was first exposed to some really gross adult content online. It was introduced to me by a friend of mine around the same age of me. I saw some really disgusting things that a 6-7 year old should definitely not see. This was not a one time occurrence, as I had been exposed to taboo topics online years to come after that, such as the same friend introducing me to Omegle... And i'm sure you can imagine how that went, theres a lot of genuinely disgusting human beings on there. Coming back to the reason for making this post; is it possible to early exposure to this content could be one of the reasons I struggle with POCD? It genuinely scares me to death because you hear that real p*dos dealt with simular situations when they were kids, so thats kind of making me feel that this could be more than OCD, and I could be a genuinely bad person. My POCD feels so real, that at times i'm fully convinced its not OCD. Sometimes I can't even distinguish the feelings of attraction between a younger person and an older person, except for the feeling of anxiety and fear. Its really hard to explain without going into detail, but it just feels so real. Some feedback on this would be great, thank you all.

Pocd
I look back at all past interactions with others and think “what if they were a minor” even though there is no particular reason to think that they were. Is that a common obsession with Pocd? Has anyone else had this intrusive thought? It’s so scary and exhausting.

I'm struggling with POCD it's causing me to feel very unsafe
I'm struggling with pocd it feels very real and I'm at a point where I feel I need to go to confess to the police stuff I know I haven't done but have false memories of doing and I feel like nobody thinks like this and very alone.
