There’s an issue with the premise. The notion of needing someone to help means that we’re legitimizing the problem to begin with. What I’m saying is the distress signal in the brain that you experience isn’t in your control, just what you do with the fact that it appeared. It can feel intense, unpleasant, ‘real’, or any other adjective we can conjure, but it is still just a signal. It’s like hearing someone yelling outside your bedroom window. You can choose open the window and argue with them, or you can choose to ignore it because it’s not important. What’s important to realize is that IS something you can choose. So, right now, you can choose to take this signal seriously and plead online for help to stop feeling a certain feeling. Or you can decide you’re capable of handling this and you’re going to let it do what it needs to do because it isn’t important.

This is amazing, and what my step dad tells me to help me through triggers. Carl, have you considered being an OCD coach or specialist?

Yes, I get every word of you. But these time it feels different. It is like about bdsm. They talk about some things, which I find kinda exciting. It really fears me. I feel like i will do in real life, i feel like i must live that kind of life as many bdsm loving people do. But thats not for me, It is totally different from the life I want. And there is another point too. I am kinda different from other straight men, I like being submissive and degrading. I dont know why I like it, but it is part of me. But I have read some things about those issues, they talk about cross dressing and being bisexual. I dont really want to be do any of them. But i think that there are so many signs, at least for crossdressing (not for bisexuality) still I dont want to wear as woman or act as woman. But like I am a litttle bit feminene, so it really makes me fearful. I am so scared

@agriculturalindustries Still doesn’t change it. Feeling or sounding real isn’t being real.

Don’t google. With an anxious brain it is horrible! I’ve been where you are before. I convinced myself once that I was a pedophile and was bawling because I didn’t want to die, but was convinced I had to kill myself. You need to go take a walk. Or sit in a blanket and listen to calming music. You need to get out of this highly anxious state first and then you can focus on furthering your recovery.

I desperately want help.
I feel like it's got to a point that I just can't deal with stuff on my own anymore. I've tried to help myself with compulsions and thoughts and behaviours and it helps to an extent but I feel like I just need more help. But I don't even know where to start, I've felt so ignored in the past and I don't even know where you can turn to. I'm in the UK so it's difficult, especially considering I'm only 17, to get any help for this kind of thing. I just want someone to talk to, something to help – medication, maybe? I want to try it, I want to see if it would stop the overthinking for a while. Stuff isn't as bad as it has been before, but I feel like I can't just leave this anymore. I just don't know who to turn to or where to go from here.

I could really use some support
I’ve been trying my best with ERP and just everything that’s going on. I have severe OCD, GAD, PMDD, panic disorder, recently diagnosed ADHD, and currently experiencing a major depressive episode. Apparently. I was taking a break from this app but I really need support right now. My family is honestly really mean and not understanding of what I’m going through. Right now it’s gotten bad to the point I had to withdrawal from my last semester of university. My only support is my boyfriend and he’s now planning to join the military. I won’t be able to talk to him for 3 months and I feel really scared of being alone with all of this. I know I shouldn’t depend on him to begin with but right now I’m at an extremely low point and I feel like I won’t make it alone. There hasn’t been a single day we haven’t texted and talked in 4 years. I feel really scared, but I don’t want to hold him back. You guys, I feel so sad and terrified right now. I don’t want him to go, he’s all I have.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME TT (lowkey begging)
I told a few people on social media about my OCD, including POCD and how distressing it is. But everyone went quiet, then a few hours later I posted that I don’t support pedophilia at all neither do I justify it or am a pedo. Then someone replied with: “I think someone might take it bc u have such an obsessive fear of it u might have actual p3 do philic tendencies” I can’t do this anymore, I’m terrified to spiral again like a few months ago but I’m on the brink of doing it again. I’m shaking and stressing tf out I hate this so so so so so much
