OCD/HELP! asap?!
Question:
OCD/HELP! asap?
I have severe OCD and well, I was washing my hands and there was a dog bowl near and I was having abnormal thoughts and i was trying to avoid getting urine in the dog bowl, ( I didnt by the way) but I ended up like flexing my penis area and i dont know why I did and i feel extreme guilt, I dont know why i did it, I didnt want to get urine in the dog bowl in the first place , I was trying to avoid that but I feel like i cheated on my girlfriend because of it, Im not sure if I did it as a normal reaction to stepping away from the sink or what,My penis wasnt out of my pants or anything..This may seem way out there but needed to get off chest/advice? Oh, I ended up washing the dog bowl even tho i didnt get any bodyfluids in it anyways,Just asking for a simple answer..
Answers:
OCD is a little understood disorder, and most people cannot understand it. My daughter has severe OCD and it has been quite a nightmare for her. The thoughts of 'did I or didn't I' consumed her, and what she found most helpful was exposure therapy. Find a good psychologist, one who is trained in exposure therapy. It will really help. Don't rely 100% on drugs.
