I want to know whats the worst thoughts / content you ever got and how you got through it , and what about your relationship? Because I’m currently having thoughts that go like “imagine xyz act “ (sexual ocd) and it can throw in things like my bf friends names or even continue the statement like that and it bothers me so much . I feel like I’m going numb yet at the same time I feel really sad and depressed about it
Thoughts do not define you. Ignore and move forward no matter what. You’re strong.❤️
For me the worst one is thinking of my friends doing sexual stuff while I’m doing sexual stuff it completely throws me off and it’s hard to focus it makes me feel gross. Also groinal responses are the worst ones for me those can make me feel so nauseous. Honestly the intrusive thoughts are hard to push away I usually just shake my head and think about my boyfriend like I’ll talk to myself in my head about the things I like about him to bring me back in. With groinal responses I’ve noticed the difference in my true arousal and groinal sometimes the groinal feels like when. I get scared and want to pee my pants but it feels good weirdly?? True arousal is a desire like my whole body and mind reacts that’s how I’ve calmed myself down in those ways. Also research Reddit forums have helped me realize that sometimws it’s not that deep a lot of ppl go through what we go through. It’s nice finding someone who has the same issue so you can remind yourself that it rly is your brain not your heart or true feelings. Idk if this helped I’m new to these thoughts too but you’re not alone find things that help you calm down. Sometimes it’s hard to not feel so guilty and bad but the reality is we have ocd and our minds attack everything we care and love. If you know you don’t want those thoughts or feelings about your obsessions then they’re not you.
@Frog princess I ofc don’t want them at all and I low-key feel guilty abiut having any thoughts specially when it latches and throws people and specifically any of my bfs friends 😭 I don’t know how to deal with that and I genuinely don’t know if anyone ever experienced anything like this or even the same exact thing but I feel bad even though I know I don’t want these thoughts or anything like that or anyone and then I also feel numb or indifferent like I could watch the thoughts that made me nauseous and panicked eith no reaction so thats freaking me out a bit too … Im so sorry that youre going through this struggle , we’re in it together <3
@Jae18 I’ve heard stuff about people developing no reactions to their fears and I can imagine how insane that can drive you. Just know it’s your evil brain trying to attack everything you love the no reaction is also your ocd trying to convince you that it’s true even when yk it’s not, I hope you can find some peace of mind and hopefully we both can conquer this horrible illness.🥲🫶
@Frog princess Thank youuu and I really hope the same for you , im always here <33
Sexual ocd was a HUGE issue for me in the past. I would get images of my partners family members, sexual images of religious figures, animals, or even objects of my own family and I would get insanely terrified of everything and panic. I’m in a new relationship now 4 years later and now I struggle with horrible ROCD but the sexual OCD is basically gone now…but I hate what I’m dealing with right now and it’s hurting my boyfriend and me and making things awkward but I’m trying to be better and fix it before it hurts him even more 😭
@Animaniash I had and still have ROCD just a bit more low-key , cuz it’s more centered around cheating and such and I have Sexual ocd and I feel numb because of it even ROCD is still acting up and I totally understand you :(
