Sexual thoughts

[Ocdisshit]

Hi everyone. I am new here. I am suffering from OCD for more than 16 years. I didnt get a diagnosis before last year.I am happy to be able to read from people suffering from the same disorder as me. Ocd sucks, My daily life is full of unwanted thoughts. For one year now, I have severe sexual obssesive thoughts. Questioning my self about what I did or what I possibly did in the past that can be BAD and not coherent to morality. Fearing the worst. Also feeling observed on what I am doing (not by god or any divine thing) but by the police or my neighbours.

Does anyone of you have sexual intrusive thoughts ? What is it about ?

Thank you in advance.

Hello Friend (ocdisshit)We all have sexual thoughts yet i have learned in 12 step groups that can changw and heal yet i have learned that i dont have to "Act out"on those thoughts. Also i have learned i am not a bad man trying to get good, i am a sick man who needs treatment. We can change our irrational beliefs in the mind.

Yeah, it's something I've struggled with too. It was very awkward at times, because I never knew if what I was thinking was real or not. But, eventually, I was able to break free from it, and therapy helps. I hope you're doing well, and know that you aren't alone.
