I don’t know but have you mentioned this to your pdoc about this? S/he might know better… I tell almost everything to my pdoc

@anon51414962 I wasn’t aware of it, I thought I am a pervert or something worse until I change meds and realize it is not normal. I have them since a little kid. You know lack of education didn’t tell me something was wrong

Think of it like this. No one can hear them and if you think of the number of times you have been exposed to a sexual situation or reference maybe you can be less bothered by the fact its there. It wasn’t your thought in the first place.

I am no doctor but invega helped me alot with my intrusive thoughts. Well at least it seemed to. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is something that supposively helps alot of people.

Don’t fight them. Let them come and go. They’re just a symptom, not a reflection of your character.

I tend to agree with this, I have a lot of sexual & other unusual thoughts just let them go… The more you dwell on them the more of a negative impact it has on you.

I want to take CBT, sometimes I feel uncomfortable around certain pepple, I suffer from kind of unwanted sexual intrusive thoughts that I try to block.

I never have intrusive sexual thoughts but then I am pretty asexual. I didn’t know so many people have this. Are there any women who have this issue or is it a guy thing?
I don’t think it’s a guy thing. I think it’s a schizophrenia thing. As intrusive thoughts (sexual or otherwise,) seem to be a fairly common symptom.

I have intrusive thoughts at times, just not sexual ones. Was just curious I guess.

Who knows? I have intrusive thoughts too, generally not sexual.
edit: I also am not sexually active and don’t really have a lot of sexual desire. I guess that’s somewhat “asexual.” I need to look that up…
Yeah that’s pretty well much what asexual means. No sex drive, interest or desire to do anything sexual.
I normally get them pretty frequently throughout the day but and they can be distressing. I’ve noticed that I haven’t had many since starting vraylar
Paranormal sex…its when you say “no we are not having sex” then enjoy it.
I think intrusive sexual thoughts are normal - for me anyhow.
The human racing continuing is our number one priority…

I have constant intrusive sexual & violent thoughts. It was diagnosed as OCD & I was given fluvoxamine/ movox. Took 6 wks to work. These thoughts are considered ego dystonic = the opposite of what u truly want
