Mental compulsions are still compulsions, just in our heads

In my understanding, OCD is OCD. We're typically triggered in specific ways which makes us categorize it, but OCD is OCD. Pure o is probably triggered in many ways, or non specific ways. Others will probably add more to the discussion, but that's my non expert understanding. :-)

@ctc1999 It is. I'm always looking for a friend here. No one in my life circle struggles with OCD, so I feel alone and misunderstood.

@star1232 Yes all that can be a trigger, if I understand what you're asking. The triggers connected to hormones seem to freak us out the most because it feels more like a part of us, or in us

@Someone99 I keep seeing posts of people say that hocd triggered them for the first time with a thought not feelings or images or sensations, i just wanted to know that its still an ocd if it triggered us with ( feelings, images, urges … etc)

@star1232 I'm sure it can be. I'm not a doctor or therapist. Can you get ERP therapy?

@star1232 Not fully, making great progress with ERP therapy, that's why the app gives that "conquerer" badge. It's a daily adventure. When soocd hits me, it includes urges and feelings.

SOOCD
I've suffered with OCD for 50 years with many different themes. SOOCD is my primary theme, and no matter which theme I may be in the middle of it always comes back to SOOCD. I'm back in therapy because after a couple of really good years, I've been in the middle of a flare up. My new therapist with NOCD, recently asked me what my core fear about homosexuallity is. I can't seem to answer that. The only answer that I can come up with, is that it is just egotistic. I'm a heterosexual man who loves my wife and raised three great kids. My question is, have. any ofyou ever been able to answer that question. I would appreciate any thoughts on this question. Thank you and have a great day.
