You can always choose what you see on it. Like the subs you follow or common posts you look up or upvote are what appear on your feed.

I get it socal media can cause thoughts and triggers but it's also a erp exercise bc it's stuff that maje you uncomfortable with my social media I'll see it and then delete or hide the post or just acknowledge it abd scroll it's uncomfortable at first but you completely forget about it when you scroll through posts you like so it's a win win your standing up to ocd and you get to see posts you like to ease the uncomfortableness! You got this!

You could try out site blocker so you physically can't go on that site, or you could download an app that controls and limits the amount of hours of a day you are able to use certain apps. It has a record keeper for that and auto locks the apps once that time is up. It's hard to stop googling compulsions like reddit cold turkey. So the app suggestion could be a good way to start, and gradually lessen the amount of time per day you let yourself be on the app until you don't do it anymore.

I really need help please, please
I know a few of you saw my posts about my ERP and the googling urges. That didn’t end up going well. My therapist actually decided we needed to halt it for now. The thing is it’s almost like I learned googling is harmless from those few exercises and my brain keeps generating more things to google. Normally I would just spiral and be done but now I can barely hold back from searching for long. I eventually give in. I’m horrified because it feels like I want to find illegal content. I swear on everything I am, I don’t want to find anything even close to it. I’m freaking out because I don’t understand what’s happening. I keep compulsively searching/testing/checking or idk. I keep remembering details and I feel like I need to google again to be sure of something. I feel absolutely insane can someone please help me??? I’m petrified I’m going to get in trouble.

Newbie question
New to this app. Do members find it helps, I'm worried I will start obsessing over things I hadn't thought about before when I read other people's OCD triggers...

i don't think i have OCD..
hello everybody! 🔞 last saturday i did something i shouldn't have done, and i even posted about it here, but no one responded to my post (it's okay, i completely understand). to inform you, since i deleted the post: i consumed erotic literature where two 14 year old children had a relationship (☠️), on wattpad. and i consumed this theme to see if i was really attracted to it..i think. i'm unsure about it, but i know i didn't feel anything consuming it. i was feeling extremely anxious and felt extremely bad the next day, and i only got better when i talked to my girlfriend and an online friend. i'm still feeling bad, i know i shouldn't have done it and whenever i'm feeling genuinely good, it comes back to haunt me.. i'm worried because i'm not feeling enough guilt or remorse, idk.. i feel bad and i regret it, and i can't stand going through this problem anymore.. i was in therapy a few months ago, but i stopped for financial reasons and my psychologist doesn't see me virtually anymore. it's been difficult.. just a vent.
