Hi, how are you? I have a rare form of OCD. Mine is concerning other women committing infidelity on faithful husband with many men, except exaggerated. I have no fear of committing infidelity, because I have never cheated. I have never been cheated on. But the thoughts involve the specific number of affairs, one at a time of course. It is like the greater the number of affairs, one man at a time, the worse the infidel is. I don't know, everything is possible. They are specific as to how many, how long they are, how they feel about their spouse, if she has children, why she did it, etc. I have heard that few have many many affairs but most have zero, one, or a few, but a few or several is numerous. I am assuming that women who have had many, many affairs are either swingers, prostitutes, mentally ill, sex addicts, sex obsessed, philanderers, abusive, porn stars, unmarried, players, or fulfilling a fantasy. I often write about my thoughts so that I can see them for what they really are. I write them specifically because OCD is a specific disease and accordingly it is rare and most women sleep with just their partner, one, or several (6 or less). Of course more than 2 is numerous affairs. I cannot answer all questions but real life is more mundane. But my thoughts talk about rare possibilities or nonexistent ones. Few people have more than 10 affairs but it is possible that they may love their spouses. Is there any information I can find on my specific situation and how I should deal with them?

I don't know for sure if they have information on this, but you may want to check out Anxiety Disorders Association of America.

Are you on any medication? A good psychiatrist can find something helpful to control the OCD. Have you explored any books? BRAINLOCK or SECRET RITUALS. Have you explored cognitive behavior therapy? It's not the specific content of your obsessions that's so important -- it's the coping skills you need to focus on. My 2 cents. . .

Geen,

You can learn more about OCD and resources by visiting the OC Foundation website. You need to talk to a trained cognitive behavior therapist about your symptoms and get a proper evaluationa and diagnosis so you can get the right treatment.

There are many who confuse their symptoms with OCD for a variety of reasons. Your symptoms could be a number of things and without a full evaluation by a trained therapist it is impossible to self diagnose. They have the training and the tools and tests to give you a proper diagnosis and refer you for the right treatment for them. You need to be totally and completely honest about ALL your symptoms if you are serious about getting help and getting better. You also need to educate yourself, ready everything you can get your hands on.

good luck
