Nah man I feel you, these thoughts just torment me and I really don’t want to do any of that, idk why I get them at all but I try my best to just accept uncertainty and move on, but I get random triggers and they just push and push until I legit wanna just lay down and cry and give up, but you can’t do that, ocd is very powerful and it wants to keep you fighting and arguing, but the main thing is you have to resist compulsions just accept your having these thoughts :(, I’ll pray for you, it’s a terrible time having these thoughts and ruminations and I rlly just want them to go away but it doesn’t work like that, I always have thoughts that I am a pedophile or just a weird guy when I know I really am not it’s my ocd that does and it makes me just feel distant from myself and nasty, I hate it so much

I hear you. I have had a really unhealthy relationship with pornography. When my ocd kicks in I feel like all I can do is check. Then I feel guilt about checking because I’ve looked. I hate it. I have to remember that if I wanted it I wouldn’t feel so shit about it. At least that’s what I hold on to.

I feel u as well. I used to do that but I rlly stopped using porn because of the exact way which is checking, it’s uncertain what I’m into and that’s how u handle ocd, but I know god has a plan for me and I will meet a beautiful women one day regardless or what I know, no matter how bad my ocd temptations are I will never check myself again (gay porn ) or kiss a man or anything (never done this, I have always been with women but hypothetically) , I do have bad temptations and fantasies about having sex with guys or marrying a guy sometimes and being gay which drives me crazy but to my belief it’s against the lord and against myself truly, these thoughts are just satan trying to take what you value most, he’s the man of lies and will try and make you believe anytbing especially when ocd kicks in. It’s a hard illness but I know your stronger than him and ocd, just talk to god when your feeling down man, he’s truly here with you and will help you thru anything even if your stuck in faith or have a hard time believing just ask him simply “lord how can I come closer to you and believe” I have been in the same spot but I really know we are all here for a reason and it’s because of him, I think sometimes when I have ocd it’s a sign that he’s trying to teach me something and over this last year I have learned a lot about what I’ve done and how I’ve drawn farther then ever from him and came back
