Groinal responses
Worry about groinal responses while laying down and worry when i hear relatives voices. I adjust as a compulsion and worry if im arousing and if i dont move i worry am i dwelling.

Groinal responses are a common OCD theme. I think they're designed to keep us worried, and, consequently, on the OCD rumination treadmill. Mindfullness is very important for us with OCD. Understand where it's coming from--OCD--not you, and move on. Hope this helps.

@Steven55! That means a lot. Even adjusting my body to get comfortable i go back and forth because i worry am i sitting be or laying where someone else did or am i doing it to arouse myself and have these intrusive thoughts. I go back and forth moving because of anxiety and then it makes it worse am i doing anything wrong. But the stress is the ocd and sadly im just reacting and doing compulsions which dont help

Again! OCD hard at work messing with your head. Disregard everything (and I mean everything) OCD tries to tell you. Groinals, thoughts, images, dreams etc etc etc........its all the same bullshit! Dig deep my friend, recovery is within arms reach 🙌

Groinal response to triggering things
I was looking at adult pictures and I had a small groinal response to a really triggering picture of a man and it’s making my sexual orientation OCD go into hyper mode, idk why I do this shit to myself I keep acting on compulsions that just make things worse

Trigger warning!!!
TW - Groinal Responses 18+ Also tmi As of the last week or two, I have no idea why or how, but the groinal responses have gotten so, so much worse... Today was so bad... And I'm still having a very hard time. Like, I don't even know if I want to say how bad it really is. It's beyond just obsessing about it; I have to try to distract myself so something doesn't actually happen from the groinal response (I'm intentionally being vague bc I don't want to say much about the situation). I'm seriously struggling... and I don't know what to do or how it can change... This is tmi too, but years ago I had another issue regarding groinal responses. And even just the thought of it made my body do something I would have thought couldn't have happened just from thinking and worrying about it happening [the thing my body did back then isn't as distressing as I'm worried about my body doing now] (and yes, I'm intentionally being vague again) My mind and body are very against me right now...
