I’m happy I understand this bc if I didn’t I think I would be very wary around ppl with ocd(I have ocd, just not p-ocd)

Lmaoooo. The way this made me laugh irl, because this is facts. When my ocd was bad I used to believe ppl thought I was all sorts of weird and crazy.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one. I feel like I can’t talk to anyone about this, not even my therapist, without them thinking I’m an actual pdf.

As someone who has pure O OCD I’ve experienced it all. This included

Yeah I had this kind of ocd due to the combo of ocd and getting molested as a kid. It especially sucks because I love kids. The thing that makes me hopeful is I was a summer camp counselor for 2 months and it basically went away by the end because probably of daily exposure or something. But it crept back a tiny bit but way way way less. So I think it’ll just keep getting better until it’s gone.

Sometimes ppl w ocd get intrusive thoughts abt pedophilia. The difference between them and pedophiles is ppl w OCD are fully disgusted by the idea, it distresses them, and any thought about it is entirely against their will. Also sometimes its, “i looked at that kid for more than five seconds does it mean im attracted to them am i a pedo”

It’s an INTRUSIVE thought. That’s a very rude and insensitive thing to say in response to learning about p-ocd. It absolutely is shocking and awful every time - imagine LIVING with that.

Look into it. I’ve experienced OCD for so long and had all forms that I’ve gone past the compulsory behaviors and now it’s purely obsessional. This is worse in most cases because it’s harder to sooth myself how I used to with my compulsions

Dude, if theres no arousal, it distresses you, and also especially if the thoughts are never sexual and you’re just worried you’re a pedo for dumb reasons, you’re not a pedo

That’s why it’s OCD. I know I’m not a pedo, but my brain is trying to convince me that I am.

No I’m saying without context, this looks bad. Like it looks like op is saying having ocd makes you a pedophile bc you have to go out of your way to say you’re not. Idk I probably explained that badly

It makes you look like one bc of you going out of your way to say you’re not because of your obsessive thoughts like thats. Kinda what p-ocd is. Maybe not everyone has the impulse to defend themselves against nothing but they definitely can have thoughts like “i looked at a kid, does that make me a pedo” that ends up making them look like a pedo bc like. Who else thinks that?
