READ THIS MY DEAR OCD FRIEND AND FREE YOURSELF ONCE AND FOR ALL! HAVING all kind of OCD for 19 years now I think I can help you to get rid of your OCD. We have OCD because at one moment in our life we had an intrusive thought or feeling about someone or something (no matter who or what it is it depends to each person), that we didn't accept due to our sensibility. This creates a blocking, and the said intrusive thought or feeling adds itself with another intrusive thought or feeling that, again, we refused to accept by doing rituals to avoid it. This creates a circle in which each time you fear your intrusive thoughts/feeling, by not accepting it, it gets bigger, harder and indubitably it's more and more painful to manage. As said above the more we refuse our fears the more they get stronger in our head maybe because our brain just wants to drain itself from these intrusive thoughts or feelings. Each day we watch a TV or social network that show us all the worst things possible (rapes, crimes, tortures, beatings, violence of all kind). Asking to ourselves if we would be able to do awful things other people did is normal (and by asking I mean thinking Or feeling) Our problem is that we fear and avoid something 7 billion people on earth live with. Common people have exactly the same thoughts but because they accept their thoughts or feeling they don't create the said add up of intrusive thoughts or feelings leading to a circle, that we as people having OCD create. We are the ones who don't accept intrusive thoughts or feelings because of our sensibility and our willing to control everything, often due to traumatisms in our childhood that push us into this control of all leading to the disaster of our lives. It's complicated to do what I'm about to say but it sounds to me that the only solution is to accept our intrusive thoughts in order not to create the adding up then the circle of intrusive thoughts or feeling. You are afraid of being in the same place with a child because of your fear of being pedophile? Stay with the child, your fear makes you believe you're "aroused" but the more you'll stay with the child, play with them even if you feel weird, the more you say to yourself "Oh year fucking OCD I'm pedophile I'm a monster I'm gonna take pleasure with this child", the moment you do it so the more you'll feel free and you'll realize you're not excited at all by childs (personal experience when I was 17, I understood that the so called arousal was false and complitely bound to my fear. The less I was scared by facing my fear, the better I felt and I did not rape or abuse no-one even when at first it's weird you really ask yourself "fuck I'm sure of my strategy or what??" It did work and it'll work for you I'm sure if this. You are afraid of cursing people by touching them while having awful thoughts? Look at them deep in their eyes and "curse them" mentally saying to yourself "oh yeah OCD I'm Evil I want this person to suffer I WANT It. You'll feel free and realize that you never wanted anything to people you care about it and don't worry each person in front of you has already had intrusive thoughts like you . You are afraid of being guay while your're supposed to have fun with you bf or gf? Oh yeah OCD I'm IN LOVE with girls or boys (depending of your OCD) again you'll see quickly that it's your fear that tricks you not a real excitation. No matter what you're afraid about, the moment you don't accept it you pour oil on fire by avoiding or struggling against it. Facing our fears by accepting them sounds to me the only way to free ourselves from our pain. Do not forget : 1 intrusive thought not accepted creates a second intrusive thought that you don't accept, plus one, plus one, plus one etc. It's like if you wanna shit the day one, but you didn't shit, the day 2 you'll have to shit a bigger shit, the day 3 its a monster you know what I mean. So SHIT your thoughts or feelings and free yourself NOW. Dont hesitate to create a personal offensive with a therapist to get diagnosed before undertaking something.
