Sexually-related Trauma and OCD
Hello everyone,
I just want to share a struggle that I'm having to perhaps get some advice.
I have developed extreme anxiety and frequent panic onslaughts, social anxiety, PTSD nightmares, and self-loathing after several incidents of sexually-related harassment and groping. I didn't have access to mental health resources until this fall, and they said that I appear to have OCD centered around the trauma.
I've been looking for books/articles to read to try to help me, but most accounts of recovery paths are centered around the more-often discussed scrupulosity OCD and not OCD related to trauma/physical vulnerability/fear of being touched or seen. Does anyone maybe have similar experiences or advice?
Thank you
Good on you for seeking help, @PeaceSeekerKitten8. I'm around most days if you want to talk <3
