Just because you're thinking about an embarrassing situation, doesn't mean you have the 'intention' to act on it. If the thought of eating garbage pops in my mind - it doesn't mean I want to eat it. Since these thoughts come when you're stressed - this is your minds ways of soothing yourself, although it doesn't feel soothing. Let your doctor know rather than worrying about it.

thank. That's an interesting view of my situation. No I don't have any other OCD related issues. I am somewhat introverted and actually is the subject of another post I want to make in this forum.
