I have high high high moral expectations for myself and when I've broken any of them or percieved that I have I have self punished by degrading myself to the point of depression. It's not even something I do consciously anymore which I'm trying to correct

@MJocd I’m in the same boat with you where I struggle with things and I know I’m not the only one but in my head I can’t accept it or forgive myself

I completely resonate with that. Once I went on medication, a majority of my obsessions and compulsions went away, but the moral ones have stuck with me. Only you know your heart and your intentions...the fact that you are so worried about being a good person shows that you are a good person. And quite frankly, if watching porn made you a bad person, than most men and a lot of women would be and people, too

Thankyou❤. Moral obsessions are the hardest To let go of. We dont want to accept the uncertainty we could be bad people at our core, that's usually what keeps us fighting with the OCD. Its definately a hard one, I hope it gets better for us all x

@MJocd Exactly! Especially since it’s so hard to find a proper exposure and response for this kind of obsession

@SuperNova22 Exactly, I dont even know how to do ERP for this obsession...its probably why its carried on for so long.

@MJocd Which obsessions do you have? What triggers you?

Yes. I beat myself up constantly whenever I make a mistake I feel could have ended up impacting someone negatively. I'm also always asking my family if they think certain choices I've made make me a bad person. It of course always ends up being me overeating or making an issue out of a non-issue, and I usually know that too but the uncertainty and chance that it might actually be an issue eats me alive. Hope you're doing better than me, wish you the best.

Again, my story's up there. I'd love some Feedback coz I acc feel like I'm going mad. I dont want reassurance saying I'm not a bad person, just some ways to cope better with the thoughts. I know its OCD because most of the worlds population consume porn and they dont ruminate like this.
