I have social anxiety and general anxiety along with OCD and I'm scared of sex and germs. Keep in mind,this is not self-diagnosed and I have been going to therapy mainly for social and general anxiety for months now. But I was previously treated for SAD last year but this year in March I got sick and got the flu but being the worrier I am all the time and 20 years old,I thought I had HIV,diabetes,cancer and all of that problems and I was freaking out and worrying and making my body worse and stressed out and my mother and grandmother(nurse) told me there was nothing wrong with me. Though I'm a virgin, I know I don't have HIV but I like watching porn all the time and I feel ashamed and don't want to be controlled to porn but rather feel true love and not be addicted to porn(which I am)and eight months later,I'm still worried but I always had stomach problems like IBM and looks fine and healthy and everything and making progress on my anxiety but not on the porn stuff and social situations since I'm paranoid since I'm deaf and worry what other people in other places like restaurants and public places will think of me.

Don't see me as a bad person for porn addiction. I'm doing the best I can to get away from it. I'm very shy around girls(women but I'm still young so I call you y'all that)and I have a fear of STDs

There is absolutely nothing wrong with watching porn. Please don't be ashamed. I think it is normal.
 
welcome wwefan007.... Are you hypochondriac?
 
welcome!

Seeing porn as long as you don't harm other people and that is most important.

Nudist people are in this AD and they are not bad people too.

Person with pink hair isn't bad too.

lol yea I figured. My close friend is same as you - a hypochondriac with tons of anxiety. He's tried everything - psychiatrist, psychoanalysis, hypnosis therapy, etc. still not "cured" yet... oh well....
 
one of my best friends is a hypochondriac. i think she could benefit from antidepressants, but she refuses to seek help.

jiro,

has your friend tried using antidepressants? i've heard they can be helpful to people who have obsessions about these kinds of things.
 
its normal to watching porno DVD or websites, I do enjoy it sometimes ;)
 
I am totally confused...you are "scared" of sex and germs...but addicted to porn..MMmmm are you buying porn mags or porn movies cause the places that sell those are full of germs and sex...so.....i don't know..i think you have more than OCD..
I am not critisizing you in any way, just commenting on what you stated...good luck!!

doesn't work. that's why he's going to try to major in psychology and understand it better himself. :dunno: kinda ironic, huh?

Well - DOING sex and WATCHING sex is different. He's terrified of germ and STD's so he cannot have sex. but he can watch sex and still be safe.... so I suppose you could say he's having sex vicariously. Nothing wrong with that.

yeah, it is. hopefully he'll find a way to relieve his symptoms because i imagine it isn't easy living with hypochondria.

There is no cure. Only treatment aimed at the minimization of symptoms and developing the coping mechanisms to keep it under control. Of course, one has to be willing to comply with treatment before it can provide a benefit.

neither do I (porn magazines), but at the same time i see nothing wrong with people who do enjoy it. to each their own.

Exactly. As long as I'm not subjected to it, I don't care what a consenting adult does with their time.
