Hello, sorry if this is going to be really long... but i really need help
I'm a 16 year old female, and have always been boy crazy. I never really questioned my sexuality until one day my best friend told me she's bi. And that night the thought just popped up to me "what if I'm also bi ?". I think what also triggered this was that she was talking to me about how nervous ...

I wAnt to hide from my problems. I left my girl at her house alone on very little to starve. I thought I cared. But she forgave me for a rape I did 10 years ago. I can't face her or help. Just torture cause she needs to be better off with homeless to keep her company. She wants to hit me
But I'm scared of myself and how I can be myself once more. ...

Hi,

I'm wondering if any of you with sexual obsessions have had a similar experience. When I have intrusive thoughts, I get this sensation which feels drastically different from real sexual arousal (unpleasant stinging/tingling/aching in the genital area) which I assume is what people refer to as Groinal Response.

HOWEVER, even though it is really different from real arousal, it seems to make the nerves down there extra sensitive, so if I start stimulating them ...

Some years ago (i was 18+ at the time) I was in closer online contact with a very skilled artist who made Horror images. I was impressed by their artistic skill and flattered that they would interact with me, so i frequently shared their non-graphic images, and left nice comments sometimes.

The artist later started to post images that made me more uncomfortable. Nowadays I do no longer support them and I am trying to ...

I knew something was wrong with the sessions. I mentioned on a previous post some red flags. I feel betrayed. I am worried I am still under some sort of "Brain Washing".

He did a lot of the things mentioned here: https://science.howstuffworks.com/life/ ... ashing.htm


Can I ask the people on the forum, is, "noticing" a form of brainwashing, like making me notice lots of things, such as colours, signs ...

Hey guys, I'm a 20 year old female and I've been struggling with what I think is HOCD for about 7 months now and I'm going crazy. I keep checking to see if I'm attracted to every other female I see, even in TV shows which makes it impossible for me to watch them. Some of the things I ask myself are "can you imagine being with her?", "do you want to kiss her?" etc. ...

Hi everyone,

I am a 21-year-old guy and have a bad case of intrusive thoughts and religious obsessions (not very strong though).

For a while now I have been having strange, recurring thoughts related to consuming and how that consuming can affect people around the world. it's particularly focussed around things I like. It started with some conspiracy theories about COVID 19 and how it is intentionally done to establish control on people and force ...

After being on different medications for her severe anxiety, depression and OCD thoughts of hurting herself (hitting her head) my daughter was put on 80mg of fluoxetine about a year ago. It's not working well anymore. She takes propronol at night to help her relax which really doesn't help and she can take 5 mg of xanax up to three times a day when needed which she normally takes at night. I don't know what ...

I'm really struggling to cope at the moment.

On top of this, I am experiencing an increase in the number of paedophilia related thoughts (pocd).

On one level I honestly just want to get lobotomized or commit suicide to make this go away.

I hate having such a nasty horrid broken brain. Honestly it is not normal to be getting these disgusting twisted thoughts and I do not want them. I am not a paedophile, ...

Hello!
So the last couple of days were good. They weren't that bad, they were enjoyable... Until for some reason, I hit the anxiety train and now I'm worried of child molesting.
I at first say it's a wrong act, then later my brain tells me I'm going to do it still. I get really worried and the anxiety starts rising. I get to wonder what my future will look like? Am I broken? Can ...
