If anyone ever posted you on the internet then that’s revenge porn and illegal (in UK at least) so don’t worry girl. Sugar daddies are nothing to be ashamed of (as long as you’re safe!), so many girls do it.

It’s very unlikely to happen but I understand your fear❤️ the likelihood of it happening is minuscule, the chance of anyone you know seeing it would be minuscule also. Please don’t dwell on the past, what you did is not unusual or disgusting at all!!! Have you seen a therapist? This sounds like something that they could easily help you with, they can also address your obsessive thoughts around it. OCD isn’t like normal shame and regret - it cuts so much deeper and makes you bring your past into the future, thinking that it will one day come back to haunt you. Confessing to future partners won’t help and will make it worse. Your past has nothing to do with the present. ❤️❤️❤️ my thoughts are with you. I also have trouble with leaving the past behind. It’s why I’m seeking therapy. Xx

One of my favourite quotes: “The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it.”

Yes I’ve heard that quote before I love it but I always think my past is an exception to quotes and that no one is as bad as me. I have a controlling mother who I developed a compulsion of confessing to. My depressing and mental health got to a point I basically attacked her after she provoked me verbally like she’s done for my whole life. I feel horrible and even though she hit my head back hard after some time every time she has a ditsy moment or complains of a headache I fear I did something to her. She pulled a stunt that she was going to the hospital but just stayed at a friends I think just to worry me. In Dubai I got isolated after losing my job and my boyfriend made me feel like a housewife. All that isolation messed with my mental health and when she was controlling me back home I just snapped. I scared myself. I can’t hit my mother ? I apologized and we are working on it but my ocd makes me not forget the past no matter what

Same in the US. But just the thought of it happening to me and the embarrassment of it would kill me. And once something is posted you never really get rid of it. The sugar daddy thing was something a friend told me to try when I was in debt but they just treated me like a prostitute and I feel like a whore. I feel the need to obsess this past to every partner I have and I fear I don’t deserve anyone because of it. I read a forum online about a guy asking if it’s ok his girlfriend used to be a sugar baby and other guys commented no they would never date a girl who would do such a thing. Everything around these themes are really triggering for me.

I’m 26 now and ocd started when I was 14. I was in therapy on and off for 10 years. I went to Dubai for a year, fell deeply in love, then the relationship turned emotionally abusive and I found out he is married with two kids. Before I found this out he sent me back home to the states for a bit. The breakup triggered my ocd again. I’m now starting to work again and waiting to get insurance to go back on meds and continue therapy but for now I’m on this app. Thank you for your comment ❤️

Hello, so I’m currently spiralling so so so bad and I want someone to help me and tell me what to do rn. I have dyslexia so there might be some misspelling 3 months ago I read a manga that triggered my POCD to start The manga was cute, I enjoyed it tbh, but it had pedophilic themes (idk why I continued on to read it?!) and in the end it got quite sexual. I was sick while reading it so sadly I don't have much memories. Anyways afterwards I read some comments about how this was smth only pedos like. And since then, intense POCD. Stopped eating, isolated nyself, tried to commit multiple of times and called 991 on myself too. I kept on going about and thinking if I wanted smth sexual to happen, I know I thought there would be a time jump. And thought that something sexual might have happened then. But I can't stop doubting myself or thinking "what if I liked it when it started to get sexual" and the memories of such feel so real that I can't ignore them. I've never ever enjoyed CP before, or manga with SA (honestly I don't enjoy smut much overall, but they're pretty common in romance mangas) but if it has sexual themes and the characters look like kids/are kids/a weird age gap ect. I drop it, but idk why I didn't drop this one. Then I realised that I had never been attracted to kids, and this scenario doesnt have to mean that I am a pedophile. I also have ALOT of trauma around pedophilia (CSA survivor, started making CP as a coping mechanism. It ruined my childhood and took loads of cptsd therapy to stop relapsing.) And I didn’t have a spiral for weeks, I did epr fully and thought I had finally figured out a way to ignore the intrusive thoughts. Nope lol, today I was insanely bored and decided to watch black mirror. “Shut up and dance” I knew that there was an episode that I had been warned about being triggering bht naive like I tend to be I watched it. And now I’m deeply spiralling again. I’m so tired T_T

At the beginning of this year, I experienced false memories for the first time about watching bad stuff online, which I have never done in my life. I then turned to hours upon hours of googling and researching about it and reading articles about it. I'd sometimes google the same articles or topics multiple times a day. I then also remembered that I watched a clip once from Big Mouth (not knowing they were teens at the time). I became so afraid that I was being watched by the authorities or my ISP simply for doing research that I impulsively deleted my Google activity and became extremely paranoid that I was a bad person and a criminal, even though I'd never ever had these types of thoughts before. Then felt bad afterwards because I was like omg what if i am bad because what if it seems like I'm trying to hide a crime. I just really hate myself rn. I know we shouldn't ask for reassurance, but I'm more just pondering this, does this make me a bad person? Is there anyone else who has experienced something similar? Does this mean I still have OCD? or am I truly just only worried about how other people see me? Even while typing this, I'm asking myself, what does this all mean.

I was looking up stuff about kinks, because my friend is trying to help me "get out there", and I took the bdsm test to see where I land on it. I got 100% vanilla, and I was a little embarassed so I decided to Google things like "is it normal to not have a lot of kinks" or "what % of the population is into kink" and when I scrolled down a bit, I clicked on one of the little suggestion things with the arrow that said "are men more prone to enjoying kink than women" and it revealed a blurb from the website that said that men are in fact more inclined to kink, but also mentioned that it also means they're more inclined to p*dophellia, which sort of set off all these questions in my head of like "Wait so if p*dophellia is just a kink, does that make it more likely that I have it? Because scientenists still don't know what causes it so what if events in my childhood led up to me having it to some extent" and I started kind of going down this internal rabbit hole of trying to figure out how likely it is that I have it or some form of it bc if it's just a kink and not a mental illness than it feels more feasible? Idk I'm a woman so ik it's not AS common in us but it's still possible. I'm doing a little better with redirecting my attention and cooling my anxiety but I had an onslaught of intrusive images before falling asleep like I used to have when I first started experiencing this fear. It's been really catapulting me back to the beginning and I find that I'm ruminating on when it started and if it really means I'm a p or not. I know it's classic ocd but it's hard when it doesn't feel that way ;-; anyway, I'm too scared to Google bc i know it'll be a form of reassurance but also I'm just scared of having anything related to that in my search history so I just thought I'd post here. Anyone else have conflicting thoughts like this?
