Stop looking for it, accept that it’s there and don’t think about it - don’t ruminate on it - or anything. I had this, but it does go away. Once you accept that hey - that’s a thing apparently. It just disappears. But hyper focusing only makes you feel it more you know? You think you only notice it because it happened then you thought about it, but you thought about it THEN it happened. It’s like saying don’t think of a pink elephant. Stop thinking about pink elephants... we’ll you did and you are so there lolol it gets easier

No need to go to the doctor , let them happen without responding to them!! They can’t harm you and are no objective problem unless you attach some meaning to them. You’ve had muscle spasms before right ? Or pins and needles ? If you don’t obsess over these sensations then why obsess over groinal ones. Groinal sensations are unconscious ones that can be triggered by practically anything , but you should accept that you don’t know what’s causing them to have relief!

I have to say groinal respones are the absolute worst. I get it. But ignoring them and just let it be there is the best advice for sure.

I’m on my period and o think my ocd feels a little worse today… I feel anxious and like something bad is about to happen, like I can’t move or talk cause I’ll freak out or snap and do something. Also I had a gronial response about an SA topic and I feel horrible, I’ve noticed that I do have these gronials as if I’m actually into that but idk if it can happen that you have the gronial and think “oh I’m horny, not about this but I am” is that possible? Idk how to say it… also I think I just want reassurance but I’m also scared…

I keep getting these groinal responses when I think about kids or see one and it's really distressing, I only just learned that OCD can make you feel that and it's not actually attraction but it's so hard to remember that and I've seen people talking about accepting uncertainty but I'm so scared to think "maybe it's attraction maybe it's not" instead of "no it's not attraction that's disgusting" and idk what to do

Does anyone else when they have the thoughts, they feel against it, but they still get arousal or tenglings sensations in the groinal area? Because this is what I experienced today and I feel like crap. This is going to be very triggering for a lot of you, but there are a lot of times that I notice things from kids. For example, there is a thirteen year old kid who looks very developed for her age, and I take notice of (and this already sounds creepy to me) her chest. Today with my thoughts, I imagined as if I were touching it, and although I usually "no no or "I don't want to do that", she is a kid, etc., I still get responses in my groinal area, and It felt very real. Even now, I feel as though I am faking it, even though I groan 😮💨 from it, and feel as though I am a fraud. Does anyone relate?
