Yaoi and OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

I suffer from OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), since 3 years now.

I love yaoi... but I started to hate it cause of my OCD.

One day, things changed when I was reading, watching Yaoi.

With my disorder, uncontrollable, reoccurring thoughts appeared

It was the case when I was reading, watching yaoi.

Obsessions around sexuality started. I was affraid to do things I'll regret.


Cause of my OCD, I had to stop reading, watching Yaoi, but it was difficult cause of my passion for this.

Now I can tell it's like an addiction...

Painful...

So I read shounen Ai and it's like nothing changed.

My wish ? read manga yaoi, watch anime yaoi, like before, without thoughts...

Your turn, tell me your story :

Do you have OCD ? How do you live it ?

    I'd like to think my OCD is just cringing at everything I see, but I literally cringe at every small thing I see-
    I just like to crack my knuckles every time I get OCD during my reading periods, I think i may break my hands one day.
