Hey there! They may think that, they may not. Tbh it doesn’t matter! If you truly believe hurting children is wrong, then even if someone thinks you’re overcompensating, your core values are what really matters! If you didn’t comment anything, people might think you don’t care. And if you do, people might think you’re overcompensating. People will always view things in different ways, but what matters is that it is not TRUTH. I believe hurting children in that way is horrifying. If I believe this deep in my heart, and some random person says I’m overcompensating for expressing that, who are they to say that? They could be overcompensating themselves! Sorry for the long paragraph, but the point I’m trying to make is it truly doesn’t matter what people think. If people who struggled with POCD expressed their thoughts and feelings, the regular person who is uneducated on POCD would say the same thing. You know your core values, don’t let OCD doubt you on that or let other people make you doubt that. Hope that helps a bit!

omg thank you so much you just helped me so much 😭🖤 you’re right. whether or not people think i’m overcompensating and think i’m bad, what matters is my actual values and my morals. and i love the mindset of “maybe they will think this maybe they will think that but it doesn’t matter because it’s not true”. thank you so much 😭🖤 i definitely need to stop caring about what others THINK i am and just care more about what i KNOW i’m not! and your message was not long at all you’re so kind! bless your heart <3

all my life i always worry about my intentions and if someone thinks something wrong of me or just makes wrong assumptions about me or misinterprets something i said or gets the wrong idea. and i need to stop doing that because no matter what people think, what matters is my actual true intentions and true character.
