So very common. More common than probably a lot of people talk about (due to the stigma, ofc). It's important to remember that regardless of theme, OCD is OCD, and groinal responses are part of OCD. They can be anything from tingling, to full erection and even ejaculation. And groinal responses can be in reponse to ANY kind of intrusive thought/trigger.

I've had that before, it really is horrible 🙁 and I still do, though it's now more connected to other things that POCD. It helps me to think that body responses don't really tell what your mind is thinking and there are many situations where those two don't match and this is just one of them. I hope you can manage with everything 🙏🏻

@Fcukocd I totally get that, I started therapy recently and I feel like there are so many things I should talk about but they feel too embarrassing 🥲 but there is usually a possibility to for example write if that's easier, we made a plan with my therapist that if something i wanna talk about feels too hard to share I can write it and send as an email before the session so it'll be much easier to start talking about it face to face too. So im sure something like that could be possible for you too if you think it could be helpful! And you of course don't need to tell everything during the first session 🙏🏻

@Fcukocd Ahh im sorry 😕 I got into therapy through our healthcare services (im from finland) and im luckily getting compensation (it doesn't have anything to do with insurance here) so it's not so expensive, but still not super cheap either. I don't know anything about how the process works there, but long waiting lists seem to be quite universal thing, it's really a shame how expensive or otherwise difficult and slow it is to get into therapy

@Fcukocd So true, getting help really shouldn't depend on how much money you have 🙁
