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”
