Thanks, y'all ! I'm hoping that I can reach people who are where I was, bcuz no one deserves that

I'd say about three months, at most, maybe? I have to admit that I started messing around with drugs, for an unrelated reason, soon after, so my memory of starting it isn't great.

For the first time in forever, I had some intrusive thoughts, that were accompanied with some worry, and focused on sexuality. Unlike how it used to be, however, I was able to disregard them, and carry on. It's so wild to me, how ill I was... that I lived like that for almost two years... I've been on fluoxetine since December of 2018, and it's saved my life. I'm so grateful for medicine, y'all. I can't imagine where I'd be without it.

Is polarbear's movie out? If so, is it available in the states?

I've been on fluoxetine since December 2018, and I haven't noticed any weight gain, that I can attribute to it, either.

No problem 😊

You can't start to develop a paraphilia as an adult. Our sexualities are set in stone once we hit puberty. If someone has a paraphilia, they generally know by that time.

You don't start developing a paraphilia. You either have it, or you don't.

You're never going to know for sure. That's the torture of OCD. What you can do is work on letting go of the need to know. Maybe you are, maybe you aren't. Either way, rambling on here won't do anything. Trust me, I tried that, for almost two years. It never worked. What has worked, is medication. I will tell you this, though. Only about 1/3 of molestation cases are committed by people with minor-attraction.

If you are a no-contact minor-attracted person, and you went to therapy, they would try to help you accept your thoughts and feelings. Similar to OCD therapy. I'm not saying you are, or aren't. What I am saying is that, either way, the help would be the same. So, why does it matter?

Without Prozac, I'd be a shell of a person. It saved my life. I'm sorry for any adverse reactions you experienced, but this isn't the thread for that

I'm going ro need a Prozac refill before too long, but my previous psychiatrist left the hospital. Does anyone have any advice on getting a refill, while getting a new psychiatrist, during a pandemic?

Nodsnods You know, I thought it was an attempt to know how to treat it, but I could've been seeking reassurance 🙈 (at least now I know how sneaky it can be!) Thanks, dksea

Nodsnods, I just wanted to make sure it was OCD related We both know what to do now

Does anyone else feel responsible for other people, more than they should?
