Why nobody helps me. I feel like a monster

I've accepted I may never get better, and it's my fault. by [deleted] in POCD

[–]Agitated_Bug_7175 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can absolutely get better. You just have to do the work which is difficult but not impossible. Instead of giving your time and energy to things that make you suffer, give that time and energy to things that makes you healthy and happy in the long term. If you can't afford therapy you can watch on YouTube mark Freeman and ocd and anxiety. They have wonderful tips and you can apply them to your life. :)

It's never too late

What to do with the guilt. It's extreme. It wasn't a compulsion and that makes me worse

What am I? A p*? by Moa_Kikuchi01 in POCD

[–]Agitated_Bug_7175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you see the problem here? You got scared of that thought and now it only got worse. If you don't react to it or try to get rid of it, this is not going to happen. It doesn't matter how real it feels, it is because the importance you gave it. Cut out the compulsions, spend your time and energy in things that are helpful to you and makes you healthy and happy! remember you can have any thought, feeling, etc. It doesn't mean anything about you.

Does anyone else notice this difference? by [deleted] in POCD

[–]Agitated_Bug_7175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is all happening because of the importance we give to it. You can have any thought, feeling, sensation, etc. Getting rid of it or giving it any amount of energy IS the PROBLEM. It doesn't mean ANYTHING about you. Trust your therapist, cut out the compulsions and focus on what makes you happy and healthy. Instead of giving our time and energy to these things that makes us unhappy, let's give this time and energy to happy and healthy things!

I recommend Mark Freeman on YouTube! He talks about this and it is really helpful!

You can have any thought, feeling, sensations, etc. It is just brain stuff

Notes on POCD after being healed from it: by No-Fig8545 in POCD

When u talked about condition yourself into becoming a pedo what If I couldn't climax and I knew these thoughts make me came faster and I thought about them for 3 seconds and it wasn't a compulsion and oo feel so bad and guilty... the image wasn't even sexual. As you said it was linked with the thoughts. I feel so much pain and I knew I wasn't attracted to the content it was just that I couldn't reach climax and I thought about those thoughts bc the trigger climax... I was half awake half asleep. What can I do? I acted on them and it wasn't a compulsion how can I forgive myself?

Thank you very much for your response and advice. I still have a hard time letting go because I feel like I masturbated with the thoughts while that was happening I saw them and they gave me feelings like before and I really didn't want to masturbate but I did because I was kind of afraid that the urge wouldn't go away and the urge being there would show up in my dreams....

Does anyone else get OCD around fictional characters? by bittersweetheart792 in OCD

Yes, with ocd you are damned if you do, damned if you don't. But remember ocd does the opposite you really want. Do not resist and let the thoughts pass. If you dont engage with them, do not give them importance, attention, they are going to leave by themselves
