No, T. the people we fear being aren’t anxious over those thoughts. They seek out those thoughts on purpose. You would do anything to get rid of this horrible disease right? I know I would. You are ok, just tell that ocd that those thoughts mean nothing, just like a junk channel going through your brain and say “ok I’m choosing to let these thoughts go through my brain but I’m not going to react to them because they mean nothing to me”

Stay strong T. I’ve said to @ocd465 that despite my major protection over my kids, I would let her look after them because the literature is clear. No one with OCD even comes close to acting on their obsession. In fact it’s the opposite, the avoidance and desperation to disprove the obsession is what drives it. I know that my kids would be safe with that person and that person would be behaving in life changing ERP. That person would be you too. Build self trust, confidence and define yourself by your beliefs, your values, and godamn it what you WANT. Not what the bully wants to convince you that you want

POCD without guilt or shame
I am 15 years old and my POCD feels like its not POCD, i feel like i like my intrusive thoughts, but i have more intrusive thoughts about having intrusive thoughts, and i feel like i cant enjoy the things i normally enjoy anymore, like calling with my girlfriend and joking with her because this is still in the back of my mind, its making me question morals and if i ever even viewed P as completely wrong and i hate this so much, i love my nieces and nephews and when they're over i know id never do anything with my intrusive thoughts but when they arent present i feel like i like my thoughts. Before this i was dealing with HOCD and ROCD and i wish i could go back to that

Is this something OCD does?
Whenever anyone starts to feel like their thoughts are less triggering or they feel a moment of happiness/ relief OCD tells you that you want the thoughts back or you actually like having the thoughts and maybe thats just the person I really am? I feel like im going insane😢
