Regret doing something

Hello. I'm new here.

I've suffered from OCD for almost 2 years. I'm a gay 20 male.

Anyway yesterday I was very horny and had an sexual experience with a man.

It was the first time that I gave a blowjob and I freaking regret it so much.

It makes me feel very gross for some reason. I mean I did nothing wrong cause we both were consensual adults but my mind is stuck. I don't know how to handle this. I can't stop thinking and replaying the event on my mind. OCD definitely plays a role here but although I know it,there's NOTHING to do so I can feel better. Has anyone had any similar experience. How did it affect you?

Sexual encounters which you regret afterwards are not that uncommon. It's best to put them down to experience and move on.

The memories of this encounter will gradually decrease. At the moment they are jumping unasked into your mind. The best tactic, if you can bear to do it, is to let them in. Don't question them, interrogate them or try to push them away. Don't go over the experience and relive it with regret and revulsion. The memory will then lose its power over you.

Better experiences of sex in the future should give you better memories that you don't mind holding on to. And the revulsion attached to this encounter will subside.

Thank you. I think my problem is most likely OCD related.

The tips I suggested are based on the CBT techniques used to combat OCD. Give them a go.
