I have very similar feelings sometimes and it makes me feel awful. I haven't said this thought out loud to anyone but I met my boyfriends sister for the first time and she has a lovely girl who's 2/3. At one point my bf and his sister had to go to the car to sort something and I was left with her. My thoughts straight away were "what are you doing? You can't trust me with her! I'll touch her". Even wrighting these words out I feel awwwwful. Absolutely awful. This is not how I feel at all and I would never ever do it but I also felt like I'd done something incredibly wrong...

So sorry you are going through this. It’s horrible to feel this way and have these thoughts and question your existence and character.

Apparently many people who do not have OCD thoughts or are non pedophiles experience those thoughts and urges but they shake em off because they know they couldn’t or wouldn’t do it and move on. We fixate and try to find meaning in the thought and urges and ourselves.

Yes yes yes I experience this. We have to remember those thoughts are not us. Its the OCD.

I feel like I have always felt this way Like can’t watch a baby’s diaper being changed. Have made sure that when I babysit the kid(s) are potty trained and can wipe themselves. I have had friends who I doubt have OCD like my best friend when we worked in preschool childcare, who also once made a comment like “ I don’t want to be alone in the bathroom with any of these kids because I don’t want anyone to say I did something” so people do have those thoughts and are normal I suppose it’s just we latch on to these things and ruminate and questions the thoughts or urges when they come up. We don’t just move along. This is my take on that.

That's put things into a really fresh perspective for me, and I'm going to try and remember that next time something like that happens x

Every time I go to bed late and I’m falling asleep, I suddenly get an intrusive thought of a child’s face and my groinal area always responds to it. It’s such an uncomfortable experience. I am way too tired to try and freak out so I end up falling asleep. The next morning I’m always trying to figure out whether I had the groinal response first or after the thought. I start giving OCD power but it feels like If I let it go, then I’m in denial or whatever. I don’t want to ever do anything sexual with a child. I don’t even feel comfortable talking platonically with people who are 17, much less a child. My therapist says that I have a deep rooted fear that I’m this horrible person and that OCD loves to feed off of it. When you get a groinal response, it makes the thought that much more real. I never want these things to happen. I want to only be into adults. It’s so discomforting and stressful. Especially since I’m hyper checking how anxious I am, and if I find I didn’t really have much anxiety, then I’m like “well if I didn’t have anxiety, what does this mean?” And more questions occur til I end up in a rabbit hole

Does anyone else when they have the thoughts, they feel against it, but they still get arousal or tenglings sensations in the groinal area? Because this is what I experienced today and I feel like crap. This is going to be very triggering for a lot of you, but there are a lot of times that I notice things from kids. For example, there is a thirteen year old kid who looks very developed for her age, and I take notice of (and this already sounds creepy to me) her chest. Today with my thoughts, I imagined as if I were touching it, and although I usually "no no or "I don't want to do that", she is a kid, etc., I still get responses in my groinal area, and It felt very real. Even now, I feel as though I am faking it, even though I groan 😮💨 from it, and feel as though I am a fraud. Does anyone relate?

I’m a csa survivor which made me develop hypersexuality while actually being a asexual individual. (Where I did CP and talked to groomers and sexted, ect ect) A few months ago I’ve started to heal, but the fact that I’ve seen so many private parts since I was idk, young? I imagine them everywhere, it’s really frustrating and sometimes I also get intrusive thoughts about other kids or my siblings. It’s deeply distributing but I also kind of think of it from a curious kind of aspect which I despise too. Honestly I have a hard time with any kid in underwear, my intrusive thoughts have been ALOT the last months and they’re really really overwhelming. I also easily go into overanalysing them or even trying to figure out more clearer the thoughts to “test myself”. I think, I hope. Idk it’s scary
