Hi, please consider consulting a psychologist

Hello, Thank you for sharing your experience so openly. It sounds quite distressing to have these repeated thoughts and the sense of guilt that comes with them. Anyone going through this would feel overwhelmed. Since you have been diagnosed with OCD, what you are experiencing is a common pattern—unwanted intrusive thoughts or images that feel uncomfortable and difficult to control, followed by guilt and overthinking. It is important to understand that these thoughts do not reflect your intentions or character; they are a part of the condition. At times, you may also be linking these experiences with self-doubt or negative self-image, which can increase distress. The more we try to analyse or fight these thoughts, the more they tend to persist. You can begin with a few gentle steps: Try to notice the thoughts without engaging deeply with them Avoid repeatedly analysing whether the thought or behaviour was right or wrong Gently shift your attention to another activity when the thoughts arise Practice simple breathing or grounding techniques when you feel anxious Most importantly, OCD responds well to structured therapy such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Working with a trained mental health professional can help you gradually reduce the intensity of these thoughts and your reaction to them. You don’t have to handle this alone, and with the right support, things can improve. Warm regards, Dr Namita Ranjan Counselling Psychologist

I really appreciate that you made a lot of Courage to share your inner conflicts.

Hi, It’s understandable to feel distressed, especially with OCD. Working with a mental health professional, like a therapist specializing in OCD, can help you challenge guilt and intrusive thoughts. They can also guide you through strategies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure response prevention (ERP). Remember, seeking support is a positive step toward managing these feelings and finding healthier ways to cope.

It seems to be a psychosexual obsession. It needs to be treated asap otherwise it may get complicated. It can be well treated with counseling sessions and homeopathic medicine effectively and without any side effects. It needs to be addressed in a holistic approach for complete recovery. You need an expert psychologist who is a good sexologist and Counseling psychologist.

This seems driven by OCD related guilt and intrusive thoughts not the act itself. Working on OCD can help reduce this distress

Hi, Thank you for your question. Well, may I know when you chose to masturbate what thought made you to do so. Intrusive thoughts of act means "sex" or "masturbation". I totally understand the condition. This is not something unhealthy, but the attached guilt and also the feeling of emptiness is coming from your OCD. Thank you for sharing this personal chaotic situation with me.

What you’re experiencing is less about masturbation and more about how OCD is reacting to it. The guilt, intrusive thoughts, and mental replay are part of an obsessive cycle not a reflection of you. Avoiding the act completely may feel like control, but it often strengthens the OCD loop. The real work is learning how to respond differently to these thoughts and reduce their hold on you.

As you are diagnosed by OCD regular psychotherapy would be helpful. Try connecting to a psychologist as it requires several one on one sessions.

It looks like you are stuck in a loop.. Your thoughts trigger your actions. Would recommend connecting with a psychologist who would help you to respond to it differently by giving different Tools for the same.
