I really need help. I'm a 16yo male and I'm confused if I'm really a pedophile or suffering from pocd. About 4 months ago I stumbled upon a picture of about a 9 year old under dressed and I masterbated and thought really nothing about it. I then started to worry that I might be attracted to young girls. I started masterbating regularly and I would feel terrible afterwards. I started researching what is a pedophile and I thought I was one, but then I realized I only got these thoughts when I was alone or bored. I never have urges to touch a kid because that's gross and i know it's nasty. I can't imagine murdered having sex with a young girl. Note that for awhile I stopped and I started back being intrigued by poemrn of older woman and I had a girlfriend who I loved and I didn't even think about younger girls. Then I saw a younger girl, probably about 9-12 and I was aroused I masterbated. I then started worrying that I might actually be a pedophile. Then I started feeling really bad and contemplated suicide. I hated that feeling and I never get aroused from looking at a kid now but I still feel like I'm a pedo. I know that I would never touch a kid and I would never have sex with one, but my mind keeps saying" you know you like this and you want to" and it's killing me, I tested today to see if I would have a response ( I didn't look at CP, that's gross) but I didn't get an erection but a felt a little something down there. Im really starting to think I'm a pedophile, the thoughts won't leave me alone. I literally think about it from the time I wake up till the time I go to sleep. I get a weird feeling in my stomach and I get shaky when I see a kid. I just want to be normal and not have to worry about this. I don't have a problem getting girlfriends, I still find girls my age attractive. I keep testing to see if I like young girls. I tried masterbating to one and it didn't feel right, I then tried masterbating to a girl my age but I didn't really get a major climax ( sorry for the graphic ness). I keep getting this same picture in my head of me and a little girl and I hate it and want it to go away. I think it's gross but my mind keeps telling me I want it but I know I would never touch a kid. This is ruining my life. I have a great social life and was never abused as a child. Please help me. I would like to add that I went through a period where I thought that I was gay and I basically did the same thing where I watched gay porn to see if it ariused me. I found that I wasn't and I stopped thinking about it.

Don't test. Do Not Test. Seriously. Stop testing yourself. If you are a paedo, you are feeding the urges, and if you are POCD then you are messing your own head up more and more each time you do it. Stop.
