Welcome to
the NOCD Community

My Therapist says that first I must not analyze my thoughts and then start erp is this truth?

Having one of those days where my thoughts are getting to me Pocd tw As some of you who have seen my posts already know... I’m a nurse and today I was helping my 14 year old teenager use the urinal (due to his condition he needed help) and he had an erection and ended up not be able to pee and I was having so many intrusive thoughts and ocd kept trying to say “you know you like this etc etc” and even know my mind is trying to say “you did something to him” and I know I didn’t but ocd says “what if you did “accidentally” I’m sure he was just hard because he’s a teenager etc, maybe just the fact a female nurse was in the room Trying to tell the ocd bully I’m accepting the uncertainty Just harder to do that today :(

i have always been attracted to males and and have always been boy crazy. but my ocd won’t stop telling me that i’m bi and i hate it so much. if feels so real at this point and i feel like my ocd has changed everything

I’m in a state of psychosis can someone help me or give me advice.btw no ones told me I have psychosis but it feels like it But i do have ocd .

So I've been told that the difference between hocd and being gay is that when you are gay your only fear is with regards to how your family and friends will react to this. But me on the other hand, I've caught myself a couple of times thinking that if I were gay, I would dissapoint my family and I would get treated badly. Please tell me I'm not the only one

Ocd is like this bully that leaves you alone for a while and then come's back worse every time. This morning I just switched my tv on and for some reason I had this thought pop into my head that what if someone on the tv told me to harm someone... what if the ground is lava, man... I was doing so well last few weeks... then this. Worst thing is I feel alone in having these weird thoughts... feels like everyone's thoughts are normal or can atleast happen in reality while mine is totally out there... and I just started getting motivated again to enter modelling, now I'm scared AF is I can even do it with my mind always doing this shit.

How to accept uncertainty for a thought that pops up randomly-being molested while sleeping during school trip ? ?

Is depersonalization a sign of OCD? Like questioning who you are?

Hey, weird question: Can OCD make you freak out over thinking someone in a video (where the camera perspective is in front of them, with them attacking the screen) is attacking you? I have a weird anxiety over getting nasty looks or being in attack direction from characters in movies and videos. Really messes me up and I’m actually scared of sharing this because I don’t know if anyone will understand, or they’ll judge me.

Lou and Lewis, new thread guys ?

Damn I hate this OCD. Every day I wake up feeling guilty like I've cheated on my wife even though I never have. This guilt is ruining my whole existence.

I hate that we have to suffer with sexual orientation OCD. Heck in the way, way past I was aroused by Lesbian porn but it never made me doubt my heterosexuality. But now with this OCD subject and the constant mental rituals ocd tells me that because of what I did in the past it means I’m a lesbian and I just haven’t realized it yet. And during ERP when the behavioral specialist tell me to imagine that the thoughts might be true (that’s what you have to do in ERP) it terrifies me and makes me so so sick. I just don’t want it to be true. I’ve always dreamed of having a husband, even now in moments like these I wish he was here to hold me now and tell me everything will be ok...

Anyone have experience with or know about POCD?

Please help me my bf just broke up w me. Having a panic attacks bc it’s my fault. I pushed him away with my rocd and insecurities and idk what to do or how to make it better

Sensorimotor Ocd is so hard to deal with because it relates to the body, seems like I’m not getting any better it seems impossible.

Hey guys two questions has anybody here recovered from their Ocd to the point that it doesn’t bother them anymore and secondly I’m finding it hard to sleep can anyone give me tips

For anyone Christian. What if I did something so bad I can not forgive myself. How in the world is God going to forgive me?! I’m reading “God’s wisdom for navigating life” and it says don’t do things you can’t justify before God, because you need to be weary of judgement day. Okay so basically is that saying I get to go to heaven because he will forgive me but when judgment day comes around I’m getting thrown into hell ?!?! How am I supposed to sleep now?

I’m afraid I’m going to spiral and hit a rock bottom. So much in my life is stressing me out right now, and I feel kinda alone. OCD has actually become one of my lesser stresses! (I mean, kudos for that?) I just feel really overwhelmed.

Anybody struggling with real event OCD/false memory OCD?

I just realized that I do compulsions all day in my head ...
