You don’t have to punish yourself. No punishment needed. OCD always makes us feel like black and white, and if some little thing happens then some really bad thing will happen. This is just not true. Consider that part of your therapy would be to watch disturbing things on purpose and then ride out the anxious feelings. You practice doing this over and over until you realize that you are not in danger.
Take a break outside.
TW I have to watch this show for one of my classes and towards the end of one episode a naked baby boy was completely exposed. I didn’t expect it, I didn’t know it was about to be shown. I’m already ruminating on whether I’m a terrible person for watching it and whether I actually did or did not know. Nevertheless, I tried the SOS button but I fear intrusive thoughts/urges are going to happen and now I can’t sleep. How do I prevent them from happening before they do? Is that even possible? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
I had a horrible thought and it was my own thought. I feel awful. Also my heart is racing all the time
Okay so I'm young. A bit young than u might Imagine. Me and my boyfriend where bored and I searched up gay porn js as a joke on google. It was completely blurred. And we where js talking about our truma, and personal stuff while literally just looking at the titles. And I saw a title. A title that has trumstixed me before (I saw the actual video before involving a minor. ) and I clicked on it, still heavily blurred to show my boyfriend the title. And i said baby this really effected me this video. And then I looked below it, same video, blurred. Different title. And I clicked on it to stupidly read the other title. And it FUCKING UNBLURRED. and I SCREAMED saying to my boyfriend if he saw it. And he said no he looked away. And he was so unfazed. And I asked chat gpt about it and it said what I done was NOT okay. Because I looked at child stuff on purpose? My heart has just SANK. self harm urges are back. INTENSE confession compulsions to my mum are back. What do I do. Please someone help.
