This is me too! But OCD can really be anything it doesn't have to be common, it just latches onto our worst fears :(

I've had a specific theme that I feel others have had but not commonly labelled. I overcame it eventually with help. Work with what you have, not what you wish for. You can do this but he brave and seek the right therapy if you haven't already

i'm really sorry to hear you're feeling so isolated with your obsession. it sounds incredibly tough to feel like you're the only one dealing with something so specific. but remember, obsessions can be incredibly unique to the individual, and you're not alone in feeling overwhelmed. 💔 by the way, have you heard about this new AI-powered OCD therapy tool called 'unstuck'? when i was in a similar spot, feeling like my obsessions were just too out there, my NOCD therapist recommended 'unstuck' (unstuckmyOCD.com/try) to me, and it was a game-changer. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it offers personalized support tailored to your unique situation, acting like an OCD therapist to guide you through those tough moments. 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

This OCD makes me feel crazy and like no one has had thoughts like these before
I can't explain my obsession to anyone without it sounding crazy and no one understands the obsession, so I won't try to here. But has that happened to anyone? An obsession that you can't put into words and no one understands? I was making a tiny bit of progress with my NOCD therapist, but I couldn't afford it anymore. So I'm just feeling alone, scared, and crazy. Just wanted to reach out here. Thank you

Reoccurring obsession
I thought I’d gotten better about reading articles and posts about most men being attracted to children. It upsets me and that’s fine but what i can’t do is relentlessly research it. I know there’s no cure and that it’s normal even if it’s not moral. But for that reason my mind latches on to it and i want to know WHY WHY WHY, or what if this person is, or what if my favorite YouTuber is. Statistically the answer is probably yes, most of them i assume are probably attracted to kids. And that’s where my ocd stems bc them k go in the loop about why and who. There’s no one answer and no correct number out there. It’s a hard fact to accept and i thought i was over this but now im upset over it again and my stomach is sick. I’m not sure how to overcome this.

Real events from years ago questioning who I am
I’m really struggling with real event ocd at the moment because I feel like no one else has done what I did so I’m the exception. I spoke about this already here but I’ve literally been crying every day I feel so hopeless at the moment I wish I could just go back to the years I spent doing this thing and stop myself because my life could have been so much different now. I hate myself so much because I cannot forgive myself. What I did isn’t morally bad it just does not align with my current identity so I really struggle with accepting myself because of my past mistakes. I wish so badly that I had a friend who went through the same thing because I feel so alone
