Hi Everyone. This is very personal and embarrassing for me so please take it seriously. I have what I call my "word problem." It involves my saying or hearing often benign words (and also obvious words) that my mind makes sexual double entendres or sexual innuendos about. It has absolutely nothing to do with who I am talking to in particular.

Two pdocs have said this is a personalized form of OCD.

This "word problem" makes me panic, stumble over my words, fidget, lose eye contact, and contributes greatly to my severe social phobia and panic. I have had it since my late teens and I am now in my mid forties. I have seen 5 psychotherapists over 15 years and told them all about it and no one was ever able to help me with it.

Can anyone relate at all to this problem of mine? Any advice?

Thanks so much!
