Lack of responses

Yeah

No I'm not formally diagnosed with OCD and where I live there's a really long waitlist for therapy and I don't know if I have any ERP therapists near me (And I don't have the money for paid therapy) I've been on the waitlist for depression and social anxiety and CBT but I've not heard anything in a while so I might need to reapply

I think the culture around anime and me falling into an alt right rabbit hole as a teenager up until I was like 17/18/19 caused me to normalise the sexualisation of characters regardless of their age because they appeared older and I feel disgusted that I ever thought that was okay but I think I was kind of groomed by those communities to not think about it and accept it. But I also feel like that's partially me running cover for myself and weakening what grooming actually is, I talk more about my actual experiences in my last post but I feel like this is more articulate about my thoughts around it

@Anonymous With regards to anime stuff, I have experienced very similar. I can't offer any advice but I hope it helps you to know that you aren't alone
