News of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Forum

Hello all,

I have suffered from OCD, C-PTSD and anxiety for forever.

I have been doing ok recently despite the pandemic, but recently I’ve been having “flare ups” with OCD and intrusive thinking. Due to PTSD a lot of the obsessions I’ve dealt with have been sexual in nature, and I’ve been hyper vigilant about all things sexual in my life and combing through memories looking for things that may have happened to me (in ...

I don't know why I'm writing this but I just need to vent. I'm a 17 yo girl who was about to die internally a couple of months ago. So it goes as follows: I was born into a very religious family (I am an Ortodox Christian) and happen to be gay. I didn't really care about it until 6 months ago or something when I started to fear hell. With the pandemic I had ...

Hello I am new here into this forum! I would love to hear your advice or opinions about it!

First things start about me and pornography, I NEVER cared about the context nor the content of every single video out there posted (yes, I also watch taboo)

from soft core stuff to "shocking" gross stuff but I mostly watch cuckold porn BUT I only like the female in some videos because of their expression and ...

Good evening everyone I am sorry for the long paragraph but this is my first time on here: I am a 21yo male who has had pretty good health throughout his whole life (no serious issues whatsoever) but I have always had really high anxiety levels (especially in regards of health and illnesses) and a tendency to overthinking, I have never received a formal diagnosis but looking at my past I worry I might suffer ...

I posted this in the sexuality forum but haven’t heard any responses so I though I’d come here as well. started having these constant thoughts about my sexuality in the fall of 2017. It started one day when I was sitting in class and I got a really weird feeling in my chest. Ever since then, I was constantly checking out the class T.A. to see if I was attracted to him. I eventually got ...

Hello. I am having currently an OCD “crisis”. A few days ago when I found out that HOCD and TOCD were a thing, I felt very relieved and good. But I still couldn’t keep my brain from being a bit stubborn.
I’ve never questioned my sexuality/gender before. And when I did, I always had the same answer: I am a cisgender straight male. But during my OCD crisis (which was potentialized by the lockdown) a ...

I used to be so scared of going insane and hurting people. The anxiety made it all feel so real like I could snap at any moment. I would even do compulsions like surpress bad thoughts, google stuff and avoid anything to do with harm. This all happened because I was such a caring and compassionate kid, right? So where the hell did that kid go? One day back in 2015 I just switched and ...

Hi,

Let me preface this by saying I have only ever had - and still do - have sexual interests in women my own age (22 and up to 26, in this case) or a few years older than me. I've always been disgusted by the thought that pedophiles exist and commit disgustingly revolting crimes on children, infants, and the vulnerable. Though I don't watch porn anymore due to not being able to reconcile it ...

HELP ME PLEASE, I AM A TRANSSEXUAL!!!!

I HAVE DONE SOME TRANSSEXUAL BEHAVIOUR!!!

I was on TikTok and a video appeared of a gendefluid person dressed as a woman going to the shops and I watched a few of her videos. There is no way I would be watching her videos if I wasn't also a transsexual myself.

Also, yesterday I was on YouTube and I watched a video about a FTM who destransitioned.
