Uff this hits familiar. I remember that I analysed how many girls I followed in comparison to men and then followed more male actors/artists to calm myself. It's a compulsion, try to cut it out or take a break from social media altogether.

So funny you say this, I was just thinking about that today! I thought to myself, I need to fine more men to follow. Then I realized that was stupid and unnecessary so I left it alone! Didnāt even think of it being a compulsion but now Iām glad I resisted.

Sorry if this is a bit of an odd post, but Iām wondering if there are any girls out there that have specifically struggled with shame around watching porn? A lot of my real-event ocd stems from watching that kind of content in the past, and for some reason it feels particularly taboo as a woman. As a young teen, I saw some genuinely disturbing things, and I think a lot of that was to do with having unrestricted access to the internet. However, despite lots of people telling me āthatās normal teen curiosityā it just never feels like it applies to me, and that Iām genuinely just a sexual deviant. I think because that kind of content is so graphic and overstimulating itās really stuck in my brain, and I just wish I could turn back the clock and switch off the computer. Iāve recently been struggling with doing typical āgirlyā stuff because I feel tainted and gross, and I just want to get back to feeling myself again.

Ok so I just downloaded this app like two days ago because I was looking for a OCD specialist. Maybe this is just my opinion but the postingās on this app can be super triggering. If feels like even sharing your experience on an app like this can contribute to fueling OCD. So many people I see reassurance seeking, confessing and posting the same things multiple times to gain certainty. Makes me wonder if this app is counterproductive to the point of OCD treatment. Iām guilty of spending hours scrolling through the post trying to find people who relate to me, but in the end it makes me more anxious and fuels my OCD. Idk what do you guys think.
