I read that your intrusive thoughts are mostly sexual. I fear I might have something similar, sometimes when I talk to people it could male/female I get strange sexual thoughts about them, I am disgusted by them, and I just try to repress them. These thoughts do not in anyway excite, in fact they mostly make me feel upset and curious as to why I have them. I have never been diagnoses with a mental illness but I do have a tough time paying attention and staying on task mostly while doing school work. I am far to embarrassed to get help and ask somebody about this. As someone who has gone through this what do you think my best course of action should be? This "condition" is very disturbing and embarrassing. I just need some guidance.

Do you think it could be OCD, I know your not a doctor but... I just checked some of the symptoms and I have a couple, I often can't fall asleep (and have developed insomnia) because A. My brain won't shut down B. I often have repeating images in my head (not disturbing ones) just images or things that I had seen during the day, it could even be songs, they just repeat in my head the entire night and I can't force them out.
