Struggling with shower NSFW (bodily fluids topic)
This would deal with some NSFW topics like body fluids so pls keep that in mind if it triggers you or your anxiety!
Hi guys, I am 29 now. Ive been struggling with contamination OCD over the past 5 years. Ive had this one specific compulsion I cannot handle anymore and want to brute force ERP out of my system but i really need some perspective from other people.
I sometimes have night emission and so when I go to take bath i HAVE to scrub every inch of my body and my compulsions are so routine based and solid on place i can't get the courage to break them. If there are guys, pls could you tell me if it's okay to take a stressfree bath with a very normal and modest amount of soap and water is enough to remove s*men off the body? I am so worried about the possibility of there being traces of it even after a bath. I live with women rn. This worry also is something i used to carry to the gym and i would clean the seats after I used it like a freak till i stopped going and exercising at home.
I want to be able to take a 10-15 minute bath without my heart pounding and my rituals. I used to love bathing before OCD and was sometimes even taking no soap baths too. I just feel like my semen is all over me and I need to see lather and soap. I have googled and used AI for help and it says it's okay. Are any of the guys free from this specific OCD and could give me some perspective
I just joined the group and I won't muddle up this post but i have so many questions. I feel better reading some people suffer from the extremely niche things I think about too. It tells me there is a method to OCD that I am facing and i could get support!
