OCD or Sex addiction, Reverse Pocd?

[Apersonalan]

Ever since I was a little kid all I could do was think about sex I thought it was normal but not to this extent at a young age. There was a time when I was molested I can't remember if it has anything to do with it or not but after wards I didn't feel bad but didn't enjoy it still I would always think about having sex with women but as a little kid like reverse pocd or something. I read this thread on this girl who says she was diagnosed with ocd and not sex addiction and she also had been thinking about it non stop since she was 4. When I had my first major episode of ocd when I was 13 I stopped thinking about sex so much, I think forcing myself to stop thinking about is what made my ocd surface on other topics.

It's very hard to tell, I think only a specialist can tell you the answer. I'm in the same situation as you, but I know I won't see a specialist as I always believe mental disorder can be over come. Personally it's more a porn addiction than a sex addition on my part, but the thoughts of nudity and * questionable sexual online content * are never ending even though I stop watching porn for more than two weeks.

Lots of children experiment and are sexual beings even as a child, if this began after you were molested I'd definitely say that that is a huge contributor. It may not be OCD either maybe just unresolved issues? I have seen psychologists who tried to convince me I was raped as a child because of troubling issues that I have today, I suppose that's not relevant but point blank everyone is different and I was always a having sexual thoughts as a child.

If you were molested I'd say there is a chance you were molested at a younger age so you wouldn't remember.

In 04 my psychologist also asked if I was abused when I was young or even an alcoholic I never said but he said it contributes to my ocd. I don't know why I didn't care maybe it was because I was too young to know but I think I just never had the same mindset as normal people do and still don't. I'm way too logical which added to harm o later and I think I've just always been way to 2 sided or detached, unless it's the under dog but this has caused my cognitive skills to damage my social life too.

Da illest, yes I was trying to get onto disability through the state because my OCD and anxiety is consuming me so I really needed help. The counselor kept asking and asking and indicating I was raped. He was way innaproppriate and I reported him. There Are some out there like that but mainly I have had pleasant experiences with counselors but I do not do well with male ones.
