Does anyone else with POCD experience this?

Postby Steely1096 » Tue Dec 08, 2015 6:04 pm

Hey guys

So I was just wondering does anyone else who suffers from POCD experience this?
Basically I'm diagnosed with OCD and I've had it for many years since I was around 12 or 13 I can remember being like I am and have suffered with sexual obsessions throughout my years. So when I suffered from HOCD I would check and double check through porn like look at gay porn then look at straight porn to see my reaction, but I realised I don't do that with my paedophile worries, I more just check to girls swimwear or something like that, or imagine in my head to check but I don't double check to straight porn or mature women or anything. Is anyone else like that, thinking that kind of spiked me the fact I don't like cross check with this.

I'm working on dealing with this and doing pretty well at the moment, hopefully if I'm not a paedophile I'll be back to share how to beat this as I haven't come across anything for POCD and its horrible and I'd love to give something back.

Stay strong you guys!

First, and you probably know this but it's worth mentioning, you don't want to be "checking" like you did with HOCD, because that would mean looking at CP.

Two strong points. I assume you don't have sexual feelings or desires for children. Second, you have been diagnosed with OCD.

High probability = OCD.

Stay strong, indeed.

Oh no I definitely won't be looking at anything like CP, but it spiked me that unlike my HOCD I don't mentally check to children and then mentally check to adults to compare which is what I use to do with HOCD, but I don't do that anymore. That's why I was wondering if anyone else just checks to the mental images of children and doesn't compare it to mental images of adults.
