I think any “Celebrity does bad thing” story triggers me nowadays. Yes I heard about him- and about any other gross story and it doesn’t get any better. I don’t think it even gets better for people without OCD- it’s inherently triggering topics. Though with OCD it feels like you are the one responsible as well for those actions- or feel the guilt that you might do the same actions. don’t feel bad for being triggered, you are not alone in this. Plenty of OCD and non-OCD people are on the same boat.

What triggered you about it? The gay stuff?

A little to be fair. I ended up watching a bunch of videos on YouTube. Nobody knows what's going on other than the people involved though. Even then, they may not know everything. I did a little self erp with it and kinda proud because years ago I'd react completely different and it didn't take effort to do so either. The reaction now just feels normal and next to zero stress. As long as you are doing the right thing, keep moving in that direction.

@68273 I'd try and remember what to do and use this as a top-up erp exercise. Your choice though. Remember, erp is with a clear goal in mind. If you don't have one, you're just exposing yourself for no reason

hey, i'm really sorry to hear that your erp session with the puff daddy story has been so tough on you. it sounds like it's been a really challenging week, having that stuck on your mind. you're incredibly brave for going through erp, it's not easy. 💪 by the way, have you heard about this new ai-powered ocd therapy tool called "unstuck"? when i was in a similar spot, what really helped me was this free ai ocd therapy tool called "unstuck" (unstuckmyocd.com/try) that my nocd therapist recommended. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it offers personalized, step-by-step support for moments exactly like this, when ocd thoughts feel overwhelming and stuck, just like an ocd therapist would. i hate when people promote stuff, but i really think it can help you because it's changed my life. lmk if you have qs or just want to talk more! <3

CSA + fear of becoming like abusers
Does anyone else struggle with this? It's been the main thing powering my POCD, and it's only been getting worse. Especially when I see posts online of people sharing their personal stories relating to CSA, specifically grooming. It's so triggering now, but before this theme developed, the most I'd feel while reading posts like that would be disgust targeted towards people who did those things. Now, my first thought is, "What if I do something like that one day? What if I've done it before and I don't remember or didn't know I was doing it?" I have many, many different intrusive thoughts or worries related to this theme, but it all circles back to this specific fear that I'll become like the people who hurt and took advantage of me. Does anyone have advice for this? I'm not sure if I've asked a similar question in the past or not, but is this something I need to deal with separately before beginning ERP for OCD? I'm just curious and also lost on where to begin with all of this. I'm just glad I'm able to begin working through all of these issues now, rather than later in life when I'd probably have a lot more responsibilities. Anyways, any feedback is appreciated! 🤍

I know we're all bad here, but today I'm really stuck..
does it also happen to you that during exposure to erp you can imagine that act and scene in detail, and feel some confused excitement that leaves you stressed because it is hard to believe that it is part of OCD, it seems so real! When i can imagine it in detail and feel it like i can actually get arousel about it.

Triggered ?
Does anyone else read other peoples post and think it’s for them or about them and their situation and start to think that’s what they are going through themselves ? Or like I’m blaming ocd but it’s my brain actually telling that’s how I actually feel?
