I know. I’ve been doing that. Ive been in ERP for a little while now. Still hard tho you know what I mean. When a sexual organ gets aroused it makes you think you actually like it, but I know I have to sit with that uncertainty, even when it seems really realistic.

Well the other guy told me to sit with distress in response to what I said originally which I then responded to with my second comment, but yeah in ERP you expose yourself to triggers so your anxiety levels raise and then you sit with those feelings, emotions, and thoughts while not engaging in compulsions in an effort to train your brain to not respond to the thoughts
