It so weird because, i have these thought, they are here and i'm not anxious. My mind see this is and conclude "you're not anxious when they are here, maybe it because you are really a pedophile but you try to hide it with this POCD thing" because yes I know I'm not a pedophile but the doubt is still in my head.

@Anne20 I know exactly how you are feeling. Your OCD will try to use anything it can to give you some sort of certainty - but when overcoming OCD it’s about being okay with uncertainty. Are you currently working with an ERP specialist?

@NOCD Advocate - Kyle Lucas No my mom is scheduling a meeting with a therapist so he can diagnotize me which can be really hard because everyone is having a mental breakdown now so therapists might be overcrowded. In France the pandemic it hard and we might get into a third lockdown.

@NOCD Advocate - Kyle Lucas The lack of anxiety is some sort of progress? Because since we don't have it the thoughts may disappear right?

@Anne20 I’m so sorry Anne. I wish we were able to help you in France! We hope to be available in France sometime later this year. We are all on here to support you! In your search for a therapist, look specifically for someone who has a specialization in ERP. ERP is the most effective form of treatment for OCD, and it will allow you to get better the quickest. Stay strong Anne, you have a safe community here❤️

@helpme22 This would be a question that your therapist would have to answer for you! I am not a licensed clinician, so I can only speak from my experience. I do know it is common for OCD sufferers to experience intrusive thoughts without the accompanying anxiety, which in turn leads to more uncertainty.

Both of them are terrible but you are not alone . OCD makes us fell as the worst people of this world . I used to think I was having sex with anyone including topics as incest, rape and murder. My OCD sometimes change the subject but still there thought. I know these thoughts aren't who I am but we need to respect ourselves. Hope you get well soon !!!

@jasminex123 I don't really know. I just know that in these thoughts, I'm not really the one who do the horrible act. I'm in a adult man body. Very weird. Is this a dissociation?
