OCD for years and years

[Anonymous]

I have these ocd intrusive thoughts  for years and years which are bothering me. I was watching videos maybe 2 or 3 times a week because I could  at that time. I decided to look for other videos but still in the same category and same actors. But I stumbled across a video which triggered my OCD really bad. And it gave me a really bad feeling that I wanted to stop . I tried to stop it so bad while having a panic attack because of it. I wasn’t looking for any wierd stuff, it just triggered my ocd and gave me this bad response. My ocd thoughts are trying to tell me it was escalation. It was very traumatic for me.
