Here to talk. Don’t have kids, but experience constant sexual intrusive thoughts all day everyday about everyone and anything so I know the pain
I dont have kids either but have younger siblings. And I feel like im in constant battle of whats real and isn't. I mainly get them abt my younger siblings or kids in general. But sometimes adult family members or random ppl. I just feel like I cant differentiate and if ppl knew they would think im actually a sicko.
@ran_0fff Just try and remind yourself that you would never act on your thoughts as strong as your feelings are with them. I’ve been battling this for almost 10 years and still have to continue to tell myself that. I get the urges the feelings and the most horrific thoughts about my nieces, nephews and all of my family. Hell, I even get uncomfortable urges when I’m completely by myself. We’re in this together, we will come out on top and defeat this terrible disorder. Always here to talk.
@strugglebusman Thank you, I struggle with the exact same things. It's comforting that someone can relate.
@ran_0fff 100% makes us feel so much better knowing we’re not alone. Here for ya. Whenever you need to chat or vent. We’re in this together!
@strugglebusman same to you
If you have intrusive thoughts about this sort of thing, and your first reaction is "this is foul" or "oh god, I hope that's not me" it's your OCD talking and it's not you. I'm not trying to reassure you, but if you look at it with logically, your shame and horror at the idea will always prevent you from acting out those thoughts, mostly because they are not yours, they are your OCD. I know it's not the same, but I had a friend tell me once (while I was struggling with being a new mom) that shitty moms don't worry about being good moms, so if you're afraid you suck, you are proving that you don't suck. As for that man in the video, he is not you, maybe he has OCD too, or maybe he has another problem entirely, but no matter what, it's not you. I hope this helps
Thank you, sometimes i analyze my thoughts so much I feel like oh no I felt a second of desire or something. And today I just found out that in the area I live multiple predators were caught and one of them worked at my job. I feel sick. I feel sick bc I worry at the possibility of that being me one day or that this is some sort of sick beginning. Its a horrible feeling. I even had to delete tiktok to stop from seeing everything abt epsetein and all that in general.
Wait was this person saying this because they had OCD? Because I've heard other people say similar things but obviously they have a lot of shame and stuff because they're involuntary
No they didnt have ocd.
Which is why it triggered me so bad. Especially bc sometimes i feel numb to my intrusive thoughts/groinals and like idc anymore.
@ran_0fff I feel the same sometimes and yeah that's awful, I hope that person's kid is taken away from them
@Anonymous Me too but it makes me think whats the difference between me and them
