@1Cleanmind! But the intrusive thought wasn’t normal. How can I get passed this. I feel like I have to confess I just can’t

@Just Breathe ❤️ you don't have to confess anything, it's ok it came to your head and you have to allow it to leave just as it came. you don't wanna act on it or do anything, you're fine i promise!

The only way to get past intrusive thoughts is to accept that they’re happening and move on. Your nervous system is telling you that it’s unacceptable to move on from this thought, but that’s the OCD talking. Try responding to your brain “yeah, that’s a thought that I had.” The OCD won’t like that response, but your future self will thank you!

@Just Breathe ❤️ I’m so glad that you’re open to trying! Remember that there’s no way to make intrusive thoughts go away entirely, but when we do compulsions, we give the thoughts power and they grow. Resisting the urge to compulse is the best thing you can do for yourself in the long term!

@Just Breathe ❤️ Sure thing! The only good thing that comes from having OCD is being able to understand and help others with the same diagnosis!

Intrusive sexual thoughts are normal. Trust me. Accepting that these thoughts are occurring isn’t accepting that they will happen.
