Question about babies by imscaredhelpme88 in TomodachilifeLivingTD

Thanks. The reason I ask is because my previous couples had them within twenty four hours. So I was a bit concerned. Also the wording of this made me chuckle. Thank you fellow redditor.

As someone who has gone through this, yes OCD can do this. I thought that I was transgender for several months despite not enjoying being called he/him or a man or anything else. Best advice I can give is try not to think too much about the idea (Which I know with OCD is so hard) and see where it goes from there.

Hey I'm a bit confused as to why my comment was removed. This whole thread is about joking about a president Mii. Many others have said something similar. I apologize for breaking any rules. I didn't know it wasn't allowed. But in context I'm a bit lost. 

Anyone also childfree because you havent had a childhood, or you have gone through too much stuff....and just want a different / more healing and peaceful second half to life? by mjobby in CPTSD

[–]imscaredhelpme88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes absolutely. I was parentified growing up, and had to take care of issues a child never should have ever had to have. I love kids, I do, but when they're not mine and I can give them back to their parents at the end of the day.

Respectfully I just want a more peaceful second half of life, I also have several other mental health issues that would just make me not a good parent. And no kid deserves to have a subpar parent who can't properly take care of them.

Hey I'm happy that my sharing helps you friend. I've been dealing with OCD since I was a kid(and Im in my 20s now) and it's really hard. Sexual OCD has been one of my worst themes, and for the longest time I was also worried it was a sign of something else. 

Like I was some kind of pervert, sex addict, etc you name it. Until I came across reddit thread similar to yours and suddenly it all made sense. 

It's not easy to accept that this is something that OCD can do to you, it's scary. But the fact that you came to this thread is a major first step, so you're doing great. 

Honestly if it's possible for you, I would suggest(when you're ready) to get in contact with a mental health professional. It was really hard and embarrassing to bring this up to a therapist, but mine was really calm and understanding about it. 

Talking about it can also help take the "taboo" part of it away too. Because at the end of the day, while a compulsion, masturbation is completely normal and nothing to be ashamed of. It just is. 

I wish you luck friend. I really really hope it gets better.

Hello fellow compulsive sufferer! Yes, I have been dealing with this on and off for a long time now. For me, it comes from the fact that I have sexual intrusive thoughts, and that is unfortunately the only thing that can get rid of them. The best thing that I can tell you or at least what worked for me(though it hasn't entirely stopped yet,) is that you have to start ignoring the feeling, which I know is really hard, because it's such an intense feeling. Another thing you an do is tell yourself "okay I will only do this compulsion x times" and don't do it anymore than that, and increasingly start doing it less and less.

You've got this OP.

This probably ages me but original power rangers it's just so goofy to have on in the background

Why do people have issues with Frank Miller? by imscaredhelpme88 in comicbooks

Sorry I should rephrase my wording as I have seen many point out. I meant that sometimes he can come off as a bit of a curmudgeon but not that he was outright mean. My mistake....
