I totally get that! I recently got an IUD and had unprotected sex one time. Even though I knew the chances of IUD failure are very low, I totally gave into the compulsion. Went out and bought a pregnancy test (AFTER I got my period, which by itself should have been proof enough that I'm not pregnant) but it's like I didn't trust my body. The two pregnancy tests were negative, of course. It's actually not uncommon for women with IUD to be paranoid about pregnancy, since the IUD can make your period stop. But if you're using both IUD and condoms, you're being very safe.

Same exact thing happened to me. We had unprotected sex about 2 times and that was a long time ago. But when we had sex with a comdom I got so paranoid because I started feelings things, so I went to get a test and it came out negative. I’m the one who/who is going to initiate whether to have sex without a condom, but it’s still scary even when I don’t have thoughts at the time!

@bubbless Yeah I regret not using a condom. It was my first time so I wasn't sure when exactly he was supposed to put the condom on, and he never did. I didn't get pregnant, but I got BV and I'm still dealing with yeast infections 2 months later. I later found out he's been seeing other women. I already got negative tests for STDs but I wanna go get tested again cause I feel like something is wrong. I feel like I'm being punished for having sex 😔

Oh love I am so sorry!! I just want to let you know that having sex should not result in feeling like you’re being punished. Yes it’s the thoughts, but don’t ever feel ashamed for doing something that is natural. I’m also sorry about that jerk. You deserve so much better. But eventually his karma will come. I also had to deal with having my bf get tested. It turned into me having to negotiate with him which made my ROCD skyrocket. But eventually, after three long conversations + one with his dad, he realized how dumb he was being. He has yet to be tested cause of covid but I’m just glad he’s in the process now.

Thanks for the encouraging message! Yeah it was a semi-casual long distance thing, it got messy. I'm never doing long distance or casual again, I can't handle that lol. Gonna book a gynecologist appointment for my IUD followup and see what the doctor says. Hope everything turns out ok for you and your bf!! Relationships are hard enough without OCD

@sugarfiend07 You’re absolutely right. They are hard regardless I know that now. But I’m just glad that we continued our friendship throughout our relationship because it can’t just be about sex and being with someone you know? And that’s great!!! I’m glad your getting a follow up, I hope things go well. You’ll find a great person to share your life with, and they’ll be lucky to have you. :)

Ocd and sex
I noticed I’ve been posting a lot these past few weeks. I just hate my brain and been having a lot of ocd I’m very picky who I’m intimate with. I also have a strong fear of stds/hiv very heavily. I am afraid of lots of things but I can’t live in fear so I decided to engage in intimacy last night. (TMI) I thought the condom popped, but when he showed me it was closed and sealed but my ocd brain is thinking some of it ripped. Now I know that you have to expose yourself to situations that threaten you. I also noticed that I beat myself up heavy when I do an exposure and im still paranoid and then become grateful I’m so tired of my brain and not being able to enjoy anything sometimes: I sometimes feel like leaving this earth.

Bad again
Pocd feels real again and I can’t tell if I’m actually attracted or not. can’t believe it got this bad again. I used to be able to go “no I don’t like that, go away” and now it feels like I do like it and want it, and it’s starting to linger longer so it feels more real. I’m avoiding checking but I’m so scared that what if it’s true. Is it because I have not been doing my exposures? I’m not sure, but every time a 14 year old person comes to my head, I keep hearing something go “they’re attractive” and it sounds like me so I panic, and it makes me even more scared because I’m not feeling bad about it??? I saw some kid at Walmart that had long black hair and my brain kept saying shit and no matter how much I say I don’t feel that way, it won’t shut up, i want to check 1000 times to make sure. But I know it’s not worth it. I’m trying so hard

I’ve been ignoring the googling urges I get. They’re the strongest urges I feel. I’ve been distracting myself and going on about my life without considering them or ruminating. All for what? I had to go into a public bathroom to have a panic attack that had been building all day. I’m so sleep deprived, so tired. My sisters say I resemble sadness from Inside Out. I believe them. I feel so drained.
