Hey I know what you’re going through. Just ignore the thoughts and understand that you are not alone. You have to accept the uncertainty because you can never be certain about anything in this world. After a while of just letting the thoughts come and go, they will be less intense. Also, remember that the theme does not matter. You are not fighting whether or not you’re a pedophile, you’re fighting the OCD. Don’t give in to compulsions and ignore the thoughts, you’ll be okay.

I don’t want to give reassurance because that will not help you in your journey! This is your OCD making you think that you NEED to know if you’re a pedophile or not and if your thoughts are normal. I will say that everyone gets intrusive thoughts (even those without ocd) but we latch onto them because they scare us. Tell the thoughts, questions, and worries ‘Who knows? Who cares? I will accept the uncertainty!”

I’m getting pretty good at ignoring the smaller ones, but things that are disgusting to an extreme are really hard

I usually just say in my head I’m not attracted to them, I just think they’re cute, but I was hanging out with my friends and there was a boy who was maybe in the eighth grade (we’re in 10) and they started saying he looked like a French boy and I spat out “yeah he’s cute (not in the crush sort of was)” to reassure myself and then my friends laughed and said “ha you’re a pedo” and I got really guilty

There’s nothing abnormal about thinking a kid is cute, just like we think dogs are cute. Them making that joke is extremely disrespectful. Even if you didn’t have this theme, they shouldn’t say things like that. Please don’t let them get to you, keep fighting and do ERP.

Is it normal to think someone two years younger than you is cute?

This popped up randomly. I know logically I’m not one as I’ve only ever dated my age range and I don’t believe there’s a such thing as “latent philia” but goodness is this one weird

I’m scared I might become a r*pist I’m over here thinking at a time I saw a kid and I looked down at his pants like I keep thinking about what I did and it’s like I feel attracted and to me it felt like I gave him this predator look and he probably thinks I’m a P I just wonder how is this Pocd Because it feels like I want to do stuff like I don’t know I keep thinking about that situation
