Anyone triggered by P Diddys story?
I was ok and then did some erp with puff daddy story and it triggered me so much. It’s been on my mind all week

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 You've done erp for intrusive thoughts before? Is this a new theme too?

@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

Anyone easily triggered by what people say?
TRIGGER WARNING My friend basically said to me that someone who’s drunk could easily do something out of character and harm someone else?! That majorly triggered me as my ocd false memory involves me being drunk, so now I feel like it’s really possible. I’m not an angry drunk by any means but still. Ugh why do people have to say things to me. I feel so ashamed for getting drunk.

ERP Newb
Happy Tuesday friends. Question for you all: I have recently started ERP therapy (about one month ago) and I feel in a way it has helped. But I also notice that I feel the thoughts I do have are SO intense that I feel like I’m gonna explode and then I’ll cry and get upset but then feel better after having a “freak out”. Does this happen to any of you guys? Also, I told my therapist yesterday some of the exposures we had been doing made me uncomfortable. Like really really uncomfortable. She made me feel a little bad about not doing it and stated this would prolong my progress if I didn’t do it. I’m not sure if I should push my self to do this exposure because she told me to or to stick up for myself and move at my own pace. Thanks everyone.
