Does anyone else's POCD get affected because of their preference of woman? Like I dont find myself too attracted to woman with HUGE boobs like most people do. I prefer around medium sized which makes POCD trigger.

SAME. I like petite woman (Not madly petite but for instance, take the anime character ichigo from in the franxx. But honestly I don't have a preference but huge boobs that look like they are going to pop out at anytime isntrreay attractive at all.

@Sizmix Yeah I agree. Just a preference really doesn’t say much about you on a moral level at all.

@Sizmix Darling in the Franxx is a pretty great anime btw lol.

@PRYM Yeah. I'm glad I finally found someone in the same boat as me.

@PRYM Yeah I just hated the ending because it was sad

@Sizmix It kinda is but isn’t. Sure they technically die but they get reincarnated to fall in love all over again. It’s kinda the ultimate romance of I’ll find you no matter what life we have. Goes off a Buddhist belief that if you love someone purely you’ll always be drawn to them again in the next life.

@PRYM Oh I'm basically Buddhist and didnt know that. I mean I know reincarnation and all but I never knew that about it. I'm actually a polytheistic and worship almost every god from every religion. But yeah I'm glad they met again

@Sizmix Yeah I practice solely Buddhism so when they had that ending I noticed immediately where it comes from. But yeah there is a teaching from it that if you love them with pure intention then you’ll always find each other in the next lives. Always found it really romantic of an idea. But it was really bitter sweet. I was really hoping they’d be able to get back and see all their friends again. But I think that’s kinda the point they had to sacrifice the good life they had with their friends to secure a future for everyone because they understood their purpose as the ultimate heroes of the story.

Yeah it’s probably not going to happen. I wish it would though. But it seems like a pretty complete story. If I recall correctly it might continue further in manga.

@PRYM Have you heard the rumors of the anime takt.op? She looks so much like 002. Rumors of them being the reincarnation of them. Most likely false but a cool theory.

@Sizmix Oh I saw people joking about how it’s the new zero two I didn’t know it was a theory too. That would be interesting if it was the case.

@PRYM Yeah it would. Also do you mind if I ask a off topic question and see if you relate to this fear in any way?

@Sizmix Oh sorry I just saw this but sure ask away!

@PRYM Alright well, a long time. My dad dips and I accidentally drink some (SO DISGUSTING I KNOW) but since theoretically speaking, his saliva was in it. OCD is saying that if I ever kiss a girl it means hes kissing her too ITS SO DUMB I KNOW. Do you relate in a similiar situation?

@Sizmix Umm no I don’t but it doesn’t mean he kissed her too. That’s like saying when you touch a door in public and then touch someone else, every single person that’s touched that door touched that person because some of their germs might be there. It’s a pretty big stretch.

@PRYM Yeah it is far stretched but OCD did something similiar to the thing you said. Do you have tips to get over this? I cant convince myself that even though I did accidentally drink someone, its long gone anyways. Happened many years ago and honestly the only reason I remember it is because of OCD.

@Sizmix Accept uncertainty and expose yourself to situations where the trigger happens again without you doing things to soothe yourself. That’s pretty much the gold standard for this kind of stuff.

@PRYM It's quite hard to sit in uncertainty. iit's still trying to say the dna from the dip is still in my mouth so if I was to ever kiss a girl then it would mean the DNA would get in their mouth which I know is stupid but I cant convince my OCD that the dna is no longer than.

@Sizmix Then you have to accept maybe there still is dna there, maybe there isn’t.
