Possible trigger here...please do not read if that could be the case for you...
Diagnosed with OCD Scrupulosity.....has anyone ever had the feeling/thought that they thought they saw someone in a lake, river, or creek who looked "dead" or hurt and they HAD to do something about it??? Or they would be responsible,,,it would be THEIR fault? I try to convince myself that all I saw was a branch of wood, (or
nothing at all), but the obsessive feelings still drive me crazy. I felt like maybe I should call the police.....I know
it was nothing but the feelings will not go away. I've had this in the past and I noticed that I still want to avoid looking at pools of water. How can ERP help with something like these types of thoughts? Most of the time I CAN look at water, but sometimes I can't.

Did I have Sexual OCD or sexual compulsive behaviours as a child? Is there a name for the cluster of behaviours, thoughts & feelings?
