@Jazzy_Butts I was thinking the same thing, BUT the main symptom is always feeling *distress* or anxiety/fear from the thoughts

@nagitoekogaeda That's true and I do feel anxiety about "being found out" or whatever, but idk if that's relevant to the diagnosis

@nagitoekogaeda Because like if Ann Frank had anxiety about being found by Nazis she would be normal not someone with a disorder. It's all contextual. I wonder if a true pocd diagnosis is even possible in a present that doesn't accept pedos, and thus people who have anxiety with these thoughts would have to reason to be anxious, and thus could be diagnosed as "true pocd"
