Exactly. We need to work on that. We need to trust ourselves more. We ask questions of ourselves because others made us do so due to our caring and sensitive nature. And yes we would say that because what if! Well what if OCD is just another bully masquerading as your best friend? You could tell me you master aged and came to the thought of french kissing my son and I’d still take him to the nursery you work at. You got this hales. Dig deep - DIG. DEEP! You are scared you will find a filthy unlovable paedophile. I’m willing to bet the lives of me, my wife and my two kids...... That you’ll find a hero instead. You. Can. Do. This. YOU CAN!!!!

You deserve it @hales. You really, really do! Practice makes perfect, tell yourself these things that you want to be and that you can be what you want to be, and not fear what you fear. It’s all possible, but thoughts are thoughts. Actions and defining feats. Fake it till you make it. And this is not lying to yourself. We do this with everything. Even down to learning to walk as a child. We fake it! Until we make it! You. Can. Do. This!

Compassion
So I just joined and I’ve been reading through this forum. And I feel a strong sense of compassion for everyone here. Reading about people’s OCD concerns shows me that people with OCD may be particularly sensitive and caring. I have struggled with OCD since I was a kid, but having compassion for other people’s OCD is helping me have compassion for myself. Maybe that perspective might help another person. If we can have grace for another person, we can give ourselves grace as well. I’m working on self forgiveness and gentleness when normally I beat myself up for my intrusive thoughts

It kinda mind boggling to me how OCD can even cause stuff to happen to us physically as well. And it all feeling real. It only reminds me how flawed our bodies really are. If people were to hear of our situations they'd call us names and choose to stay ignorant. People fear what they cannot understand. Before this I could have possible have been one of them, but here I am. OCD really goes for anybody. Does not matter what ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation you are. It is a twisted disorder that likes to make others lives harder. If I were to tell myself before this that this would happen, I would'nt believe it. I was convinced I am evil, I cried for weeks. I had to sleep in my parents bedroom for a period of time cause I couldn't face the darkness alone. This application helped me greatly during this, cause I learned just as much about OCD as I did about myself. At the same time I get saddened cause I see people going through the exact same, or much worse. If any who come across this post have any questions for me, u can feel free to do so

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😢
