Please try to calm down, I know it’s hard but you are definitely not a monster. I have experienced similar things regarding my pets too you’re not alone trust me. OCD is confined to set themes the themes can go on and on and on because in reality any theme doesn’t matter because they are all OCD.

The looking could actually be a compulsion. An opportunity for your OCD to slip in and start bullying you with this thinking, groinal sensations, analyzing and ruminating. Remember OCD wants you to be trapped and it will do whatever it takes. If it scares you OCD will attach. You are not a monster. Your OCD therapist will be able to help you

Honest Question - What if you walked in on a person taking a Shower and cleaning their private parts? Or seen a stray dog cleaning it's private parts? Maybe a Deer cleaning another Deers private part.. Would you have to stare.. or just when Your Cat, does it? No judgement, just wondering. ☮️

@helpmeee There's no wrong answer. It's not a trick question. Everyone here is living with OCD. You are normal.

@helpmeee Are you overthinking my question? I honestly am wondering if you felt compelled to watch other humans/animals clean themselves, or just your Cat. There's nothing beyond that, honestly.

Ive been having rough days lately i can't stop crying and i just feel like a mess because of this. I'm posting this because i'm trying to understand whats happening,not in an obsessing way but i genuinly want to understand or i guess feel validaded like i'm not alone since i genuinly fear i'm crazy or i'm the only ones experiencing this and maybe theres something wrong with me. Ive been experiencing groinals for a while around my cats ,at first , the usual i was incredibly scared at the moment. Now i feel different,i do still feel scared but now it feels like i'm causing them. I'm my case i have the urge of doing something about it the moment i get it Now while i do feel scared and try to not be around My cats while i have them,at the same time it feels sometimes that i cause them to feel that sensation which really scares me because i can tell im enjoying it and i can't stop feeling guilty and awful about it. Ive been crying a lot over this and i really fear that this could mean something else Even at some points it felt like the idea seduces me which is also really really scary. I know this isnt like this for everyone but i wanted to know if anyone else experienced this

NSFW 17f So basically I did something sexual to the cat when I was younger. It wasn't like full on bestiality, my privates weren't touching the cat and I wasn't touching the cats privates but it was still sexual. I didn't know what I was doing was wrong. It didn't harm the cat in any way, but of course it's still horrible. So I developed real event ocd that ruined my life complitely. Most of the time I don't think I will male it to 20. Sometimes it's a living hell. I developed it more than a year ago and I barely even remember this year cause I was so consumed with guilt it was the only thing in my head. So i also developed zoophilia ocd because of it. And I feel so bad cause I can't interact with my cat anymore. Because she wants to and I have to ignore her. Slowly I started to be scared to let her on my bed. So I stopped. Then in my room. Stopped doing that too. I still tried to give her some attention just outside of my room. Then I got scared to touch her. So I stopped doing that, but I used her brush to pet her with it and her toys to play with her so i don't physically touch her. Then my ocd went like but what if you are subconsciously using her for sexual gratification when you look at her? So now I can't even look at my cat. I look away when she is around, block my sight with a hand, close my eyes or if I can I leave. But the heartbreaking part is. Before I remembered what I did I was giving my cat a lot of attention. Like everyone says I'm her favorite and she only allows me to hold her and pet her the certain ways. So for all that time she is desperately trying to get my attention. She jumps on my rooms door, meows for a long time, tries to sneak in my room and stuff like that. And It's so sad I just have to ignore her. Especially cause she doesn't understands why. She was getting so much love and then randomly she is being ignored?? idk her real age cause we took her from the street, but she lives with us for 13 years, so she is not young. She is pretty healthy so I don't think she is going to die any soon but still. if I never get over it she will spend her last years of life ignored. and this makes me want to cry and want to throw up. but I don't know what to do. if I touch her I start freaking out and convincing myself that I used her somehow for sexual stuff even if I didn't do anything like that. I'm so scared. and also sad for her. and I miss my cat tbh. like everhtime I have to close my door when she tried to enter I feel so bad. but I'm so scared. because after what I did to her I'm already a monster. I don't want to add anything else. but I also feel bad for ignoring her.

tw: nsfw 17f I have a real even ocd from a sexual event with an animal (my cat) from where I was younger. Remembering it ruined my life and made it a living hell. It was bad. It's not one of those innocent events people always assume because I have ocd and then they get all surprised when it was actually bad and sexual. (animal wasn't harmed though) So basically I developed I fear of interacting or even looking at animals after I remembered so I was avoiding my cat like crazy, but then I realized that it's cruel to ignore an animal who wants love and attention, so I forced myself to overcome it kinda. I basically downloaded a habit tracker where I mark when I was able to pet my cat cause while it's triggering I want to give my cat love and I'm trying to pet her everyday So yesterday I was petting the cat. And she was extremely enthusiastic about it. Like she was almost throwing herself on me to get more pets like kinda agressive at this point to get pets. I started thinking how animals go in heat in spring. But she is like sterilized so I wasnt sure its possible for her. Like maybe they are just more active in spring? But what if the pets are somehow sexual for the cat? Then I thought maybe I shouldn't pet her then cause that's wrong. But then I thought like who cares and also then it will be like this the whole spring should I just not touch her the whole spring and ignore her again? I was also tired a bit so I wasn't thinking it all through that much Now I'm freaking out so bad. Like I knew there was a possibility that it was sexual for the cat and still continued petting her I didn't stop. It's so bad. Like I thought its whatever since it's not sexual for me but now I'm freaking out. Like the whole me being a better person and learning on my mistakes after that one earlier event was for nothing if I was able to do something like this I'm freaking out so bad
