"mental health" advocates when they see someone with Z-OCD or P-OCD (suddenly they don't care about mental health anymore and just want to jump to conclusions to hurt the people they swore to help)
This also goes for psychotic people who have "scary"/"disturbing" reactions to certain things (screaming, rocking back and forth while holding their head, mumbling about seemingly "crazy" or "inane" things, defecating themselves, scratching their skin, lashing out, wetting themselves, etc.)
Everyone wants to be on the right side of history until they realize mental health advocacy includes everyone and not just the 'prettier' disorders that they oh-so-love to cherrypick and romanticize.
Everyone loves the idea of disorders being less stigmatized than they are today, but will, in the same vein, clutch their pearls when they hear a person with POCD sob about how they feel like a disgusting human being about having uncontrollable, EGO-DYSTONIC, INTRUSIVE thoughts/images about children. They will call a morally incorrect person psychotic, they will say things very reminiscent of "I'm scared that the EVIL PSYCHOTICS are able to roam freely 😰😰😰😰" with a helluva lot of padding, they will make "schizo" jokes whose whole purpose was to trigger psychotic people because it's funny.
It's disgusting how your beliefs stop at the people who's disorders don't fit into your perfect little box of what's acceptable for a fucking illness or not, as if they have any damn control over it.
You know how distigmatising paraphilias also helps people with P-OCD, Z-OCD and similar bc it can make the thing their afraid of less scary?
Under the same principal, distigmatising factitious disorder and compulsive lying will also help people with impostor syndrome bc it will make the fear of faking/lying less scary.
ok so p-ocd is pedophilia ocd , it's when you have intrusive UNWANTED thoughts , about being a pedophile , this does not make you a pedophile , having UNWANTED thoughts about pedophilia does not make you a pedophile
those thoughts are UNWANTED . you can not control them , and you don't want them .
asking for a pocd flag
P-OCD flag
Only for those with P-OCD, transabled don't touch.

sometimes when my intrusive thoughts try to break into my internal monologue, i just think "no, no, listen to me, listen" like i'm trying to calm down a room full of people yelling shit. which is kinda what it feels like
If you are openly telling people with Pocd they will act upon their thoughts you are disgusting "B-but" no buts ^ - ^
