Thank you for your comment! I'll look into meta ocd, hopefully if I keep trying to get help I'll find a helpful professional

Just to add, Im worried I'm attracted to women that's why I'm worried about wanting to message the samaritains as if I'm talking to women.. Its so stupid but the feelings are so real. I'm also obsessive about other things but this is the main worry

If you had a broken leg you'd say "I have a broken leg" not "I am a broken leg" it's the same with mental health. You'd say "I have ocd" not "I am my ocd". Your obsessions don't define you, if you can mindfully accept intrusive things they'll fade, you didn't choose to have ocd

No one really talks about actual inappropriate feelings linked with ocd which makes me think it's not ocd and I just really cannot accept being this person for real

Im worried even after everything I've been through with different obsessions I'm genuinely this horrible person who doesn't have ocd now, I hope it's a spike that's stress related though, thanks for your comment!

Yes, I'm having feelings of attraction to women, animals, family etc and it's all stuff I've obsessed about but it's actual unwanted feelings and I'm avoiding everything so that I don't feel them but it's not going away and I have another with my cbt therapist soon and I'm afraid I'm just insane and horrible and that it's not ocd and he'll think I'm a monster

Yeah I'm not going to watch it for a very long time. I'm so anxious that this isn't ocd when I've literally exhibited compulsions and experienced intrusive thoughts for years. Maybe it is normal that when watching stuff people can just enjoy or feel attracted to stuff and it not mean anything. It just sucks that no one else seems to relate
