What should I do?

Postby incotb » Tue Jun 21, 2016 6:10 pm

I have OCD related to sexual intrusive thoughts. I have developed this condition where I attach these thoughts to things I enjoy, like tv shows, music, certain people, etc.

This attachement is created because my brain finds a way to associate anything with intrusive thoughts. It always finds a connection.

What is the best way to deal with this?
Right now at this moment I am unable to get professional treatment as I am getting ready to travel to study abroad.

If needed, I can explain this condition better in the comments.

Here is an example of the thought process:

There is a TV Show I like - I have an intrusive thought about something sexually wrong about a person - I link that person to a character in that show for some reason - Every time I think about the show, I have an intrusive thoughts or even a groinal response - I stop watching it and everytime I think about that the connection just gets stronger.

I'ts not a perfect example, but it kind of reminds this quote from How I Met Your Mother:
