You did not rape her! I get intrusive thoughts about my pets & I am super passionate about them all!! OCD just targets what you love most.

I love her more than anything. This isn’t the first time this has happened and you’d think I’d know by now it wouldn’t help but I guess I was so desperate to be rid of the anxiety. I love her more than anything she is my best friend and I don’t know if I’d even still be here without her

You did not rape her! I've had intrusive thoughts that made me question shit and gave me extremely high anxiety, and I had to do strange stuff that made me feel like the anxiety would go away by doing it, but it didn't and just got worse! You did something because you love your dog very much, and you wanted to relieve the anxiety that the intrusive thought gave you. You DID NOT rape her. You weren't sexually attracted to your dog, and you didn't do to satisfy a sexual thought, so absolutely don't feel like you did! OCD fucking sucks and attacks everything that you love, and it tries to put intrusive thoughts in your head that makes you think by doing your OCD, that the anxiety goes away, but it doesn't, it just makes it worse. If you get a thought next time, try labeling it as an intrusive thought and attempt to move on from it and do something else! You could also try prolonging doing any rituals that come with intrusive thoughts to kind of gradually build up control over them. I wish you the best in your journey against OCD, and I hope that you'll be able to gain control over your intrusive thoughts!

Rhys34.. I did the exact same thing. It’s actually a compulsion because the reason we do it was to rid the anxiety , urge, discomfort or to figure it out, etc. Let me tell you though.. it does not work! You might even get short term relief of the anxiety or urge but not long after comes the anxiety, guilt, ruminating, etc. Basically gives your OCD a new target. Resist the urge to perform compulsions of any form or you’ll remain stuck in your OCD. You did not harm your dog but doing this compulsions will harm you. Please do not listen to your OCD. You can do this.

I’m a monster. I know it.
(21+ ONLY: TRIGGER WARNING) I’ve been increasingly worried that I’m a zoophile (among other things) and that I’m attracted to my family dog. I love him and I take care of him—I take him out to poop and pee, I play with him, and I feed and water him. But I get nervous when I have to be around him for a long time—I get these thoughts and they just won’t stop. I’ll find myself looking at my dog’s privates and having these strange urges. I feel horrible—like I could’ve done something to him or touched him inappropriately and conveniently don’t remember. I don’t know what to do…

help
i did something terrible trying to prove to myself that I can get """arousal""" even without being attracted because i was very nervous about pocd, I thought about several people that i'm not attracted to and then i did it thinking about a loved one and now I can't stop crying, It was very disgusting, I didn't even want to do it because I didn't feel good, but it's because I wanted to prove to myself that, I don't know. I just wanted to relieve the anxiety but it only got worse because I felt horrible doing it. I never want to do it again. im not attracted to this person, nor do I feel anything like that for them, but I feel terrible now, I've never been so scared. i want to apologize to them too. is this compulsion????? what was i doing? why did i do this, i feel horrible but i i want to test myself again, i don't know why (im using a translator, there may be something wrong, please help me)
