i have had obsessive compulsive disorder now for five years... ive struggled with obsessions of hurting my mom, dad, nephews, my girlfriends... or someone random... its even stretched to me believing im gay, or me thinking im a pedophile, however although these are distressing to me, i do know that this is common amongst people with the disorder so im able to dismiss them at my will..... occasionally
recently, ive been stressing about something i did when i was real young... i obsess about it, but im 21 now and i know i should be able to not care about what i did when i was 8... i should be able to move on...
i was curious if anyone has ever experienced this kind of obsession

yes, that were the first obsessions of mine... I used to be very hectic child and like i m now /misunderstood.. so , i kicked some people when i was young... it haunted me ages.. it did go so far that i started marijuana and after somehow i concluded that it wasnt my guilt about 4 years ago (this is a trip, not conclusion ) i finally stop ..but now i m more worried because of the fact that i still cant control my mind

Obsessions i have now , some of them you mentioned, are far more disturbing to me. Sometimes, i stop to do everthying because of them

barry,
i agree... those thoughts are definitely the toughest ones to deal with, i wish i was able to conclude that it was a part of my past and move on, however it is not that easy. it helps to know that others with ocd have experienced the same thing

I'm the same and for a minute there I freaked out reading your post, thinking when the heck did I write that lol like what I opened a new account and didn't know (that is a strange thought i have often, that I do things and dont remember eeek I'm sharing too much)
but yes I have the same thoughts and remember doing something with a girlfriend that was just kid stuff, but it still stresses me from time to time.
