What is pedophilia-OCD?
P-OCD is described as "a subtype of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) characterized by obsessive thoughts, images, and impulses and compulsive behaviors around unwanted sexual thoughts about children." - treatmyocd.com
Aren't all thoughts secretly urges?
Intrusive thoughts are described as "unwanted thoughts, images, impulses, or urges that can occur spontaneously or that can be cued by external/internal stimuli. Typically, these thoughts are distressing (hence “intrusive”) and tend to reoccur." Meaning we do NOT feel genuine urges, but rather a fear.
Why would you worry about being something you're not?
"A person’s values are often a target of OCD. People who are susceptible to P-OCD are people who deeply care about children, have a desire to be good, have a vulnerability to doubting their true identities or self-concept, people who are easily enticed by the imagination and can over-invest in remote possibilities." - adaa.org
Why am I including this?
Until I can say "pedophilia-ocd" without receiving dirty looks or violent reactions, I will never stop spreading awareness about P-OCD.
Where else can I learn about P-OCD?
If you experience P-OCD, you are NOT a monster or "secretly a pedo". You are valid.
