don't know Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 hi, my theme revolves around sexuality and it has gotten a lot better to the point where I really don't intrusive thoughts anymore. But my attitude towards relationships and attractions have not gone back to normal. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this aspect still apart of OCD or am I just kidding myself? Link to comment
don't know Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 This can't be intrusive thoughts because they don't feel like them. I am genuinely concerned about this. Link to comment
Lish Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Your mind has probably just habituated to them now. Are you still giving in to your compulsions? Link to comment
don't know Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 I haven't had any compulsions for a while. So there's nothing to explain this away. No one believes this is OCD anyway. I don't believe it is either. I wish it was just OCD. Link to comment
Lish Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 If it wasn't OCD, you more than likely would not be on this site. The key to diminishing the thoughts is to cut out your compulsions. You say you've cut out your compulsions and you aren't getting any thoughts. Your attraction will come back. You are just so used to playing by OCD's rules that it has clouded that for you. Don't get too concerned about it and interpret more positive behaviours in to your life. From what you've said, it sounds like you're half way there. Link to comment
PolarBear Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 You thought having a second active thread would give you different answers? You're looking for reassurance, which is a compulsion. Link to comment
