AI Obsession

I do not. I wish I could provide some support and guidance for you

I don’t think law enforcement has time or interest in OCD-themed chats or searches. What crime would that even be? I’m not trying to take you down that road, but seriously, what crime is it to do that? Actually doing something like that is obviously a crime, but what you’re describing is, to my knowledge, not a crime. Do good. Pray. Go to counseling. Read the Word.

I understand. Even so, I don’t think that’s a crime. Move forward. Talk to God about it. Reassure yourself who you are, what you know, and let the rest go. Live life and do good.

I had to deal with this too, but I kept telling chatgpt that I didn't want to do anything I was talking about and was really scared of those situations. Idk if your experience was similar to this, but if not, they do not even arrest the majority of child ab*sers, so I don't really think they are going to look into you for a question or hypothetical situation that you could have done.

I suffer from similar thoughts from when some of my messages got flagged talking about my REOCD. For ChatGPT specifically, if you got flagged for your messages I believe their system is sometimes iffy and you would probably have had your account been banned/contacted if they believed you were a threat. Even if you did get contacted, you know that you did not have malicious intent behind this. I know it can be reassuring in the moment, but I would avoid using AI for this moving forward. I've realized myself it's a compulsion :(

I second that it is sometimes a compulsion because it’s reassurance seeking. It’s not sitting with uncertainty. There’s a line somewhere between trying to find helpful information and reassurance seeking.

Yes!! All the time! I’m pretty sure because it was reassurance seeking, it’s not a crime. You weren’t asking the ai to generate or find any harmful material. You were seeking reassurance to make sure you weren’t the feared thing! You’re a-okay.
