When you look deep down and it feels wrong then its OCD... but if you secretly like it and the anxiety comes from what you think people will say then its denial

šµSomebodyās having a backdoor spikešµ In a lot of your recent posts, Iāve noticed youāve been anxious about a lack of anxiety. This is definitely a backdoor spike. Just keep calm, and remember how you coped with the anxiety before. You got this!!!

@Nour04 I had the same thought process. My best advice is to have the thought, acknowledge it, and think of something else.

I feel the same way, sometimes I donāt feel that worried about certain thoughts or even the idea of being a bad person and it makes me feel like I donāt have OCD and I am just a bad person, so I know how you feel youāre not alone

Thus happens to me as well-feeling stressed out from the lack of stress. My therapist tells me to feed into the negative thoughts and that helps me sometimes. For me-when I intrusive thoughts that tell me my unclean hands may lead to me dying Iāll say something like āi AM going to die because my hands are unclean.ā Its a way of rewiring your brain to no be afraid of the intrusive thought anymore. Of course this could definitely be too stressful for some!

Why am I not anxious? Like at all anymore? Is it because I'm really avoiding and trying not to think of the consequences that come from possibly being a pdfile? Is the only thing that is worrying me about it is the consequences then does it mean that I really am one? But I never masturbated to the thought of a child and actively seeked it. It came as intrusive thoughts while I was doing it yes I've had them when I see kids yes and I question and check a lot if I'm attracted to them and its just confusing me, I know I'll never do anything to hurt a child and I don't even like the idea of becoming a pdfile then why am I not anxious enough about it? The thoughts are just distressing obsessive I feel disgusting and Id say I still do compulsions but I don't know something just doesn't feel right. I don't feel anything and no real attraction to anyone or anything anymore. I just feel so disgusting and I just want to be normal but then again I pretty much did this to myself. It's weird to me I know there isn't a real indication I'm a pdfile and past experiences pretty much prove that and I've always been attracted to older guys so why is this happening now? Why am I getting these thoughts now especially right after I was trying to fix this sexual obsession/tension I had for older guys. Is my brain just leaving one thing to love and be obsessed about and going to the other? I'm really really just confused. Not anxious just distressed confused and uncomfortable. Like I want to throw up but I don't feel intense anxiety in my chest it feels like maybe I haven't processed what's going on properly. I'm genuinely so confused and I don't want to have this stay in my mind. Sometimes I just miss my ex so much because at the time I've felt something I felt so much things even though I had really bad rocd. I just miss loving people again and being alive again. I'm so scared and confused right now can anyone explain to me what is this? I genuinely just want to understand what I'm feeling or thinking because its not making sense to me

Ok basically Iāve had OCD symptoms since I can remember but now that Iām thinking about it maybe I donāt have OCD what if I believe it so much I have the symptoms Iām not sure and Iām so confused I guess. And I wanna get tested or therapy but I donāt even know if I have it so Iām scared to and I have to remind myself of the time I had a symptom before finding out about it so I can confirm it I donāt know how to explain what I mean I wanna get help but donāt know if I have it
