I have that too. I think it's quite common for OCD to act like that.

Not silly. Ocd makes us thing ridiculous things. Ask yourself what is really gonna happen if I wear these? The only real answer is nothing lol other than you will feel some discomfort because the intrusive thoughts will tell you otherwise but we already know everything they say is B.S.

Yep. The best exposure you can do is wear them. If not all night then start with an hour

This resonates with me. I also avoid things, sometimes even people, if I think it will trigger me. It makes me feel sad especially if I liked that thing before the triggering thoughts happened. Which makes me curious… I wonder if you have any positive memories of these pajamas. Maybe next time I want to avoid a particular item, I will try to remember what I liked about it in the first place, a time when it brought me joy.

I have a fear of touching people inappropriately. When I was walking by someone, I intentionally thought a sexual thought, then I started wondering if it would make me move my hips, and then they moved a tiny bit. Obviously nothing happened. But I’m convinced that was me snapping. What I don’t understand is why the fuck I made a choice to think the thought. Usually I’m terrified of walking by people and try to pass them quickly. What could make me think the thought? I don’t even think the thought was about the person. I’m confused and scared

Just found a necklace of mine that I used to wear so long ago 24/7, it was my favorite ever. It's so beautiful. But I've convinced myself it's bad luck because during the time I was wearing it, I was having a hard time with many things in life. So now I think that if I put this necklace back on, bad things are going to happen. I really missed this necklace, but can't get myself to put it back on because I don't want to risk it. I hate this.
