Hello all
Me again!!! Having a really bad week but i think its partly my fault . I ordered a book from amazon about ocd. And at the beginning of the book it states that this book isn't for you if you find the thoughts pleasureable ie sexually arousing.
I am really panicking now i know i don't like the thoughts but sometimes i feel as if i have a tingerling down below. I am so scared and don't know who else to talk to.
I fear now that because i have this tingerling it means i'm a paedophile i hate myself this week i was doiong so well.
Please help!!

Feeling really panicky
Good for you. You're alive!! Don't over analyze. You are normal. You are making the sensations bad. Make them OK to have and they will subside. I understand that this is probably your big fear, and you will need to work through this. You'll have to prove to yourself that you are OK and "normal". Observe the sensations until they pass. You will eventually see that you are OK. Be patient with yourself and continue working the program.
You really are OK.
You really are OK.
Hello, out there! Hi,
This is my first day of the program and my first time online. Is this the Peer Support Group? I feel a little panicky about the whole thing but just hope that I am in the right place for Group. AS already mentioned,experiencing different sensations does indicate that we are alive. Now, I am striving to become comfortable (at peace) and healthy in my own skin. We have to keep up the good work. Take care, AKE-G

"O God, you are my God. Earnestly I seek you;my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is BETTER than life,my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name, I will lift up my hands." Psalms 63
Mine was different, but you must understand that an obsession is an obsession. It doesn't matter what the content is. You handle it the same way. When you stop resisting, it will cease to be a constant threat for you. You will have no emotional reaction any longer and you'll hear from that particular obession less and less. It will be very easy to dismiss it. Practice allowing the thoughts and the sensations.
Find your funny bone. It's there and lighten up on yourself.
You'll be OK. You can cure from this.
