I know its normal but that's not the point. It's my mom I'm worried about!?

Question

Don't even say this is nasty because first of all i am 17 now and i was 15 or 16 but even psychologists and suicide hotline say it's normal but me and my mom are SO close like best friends and i feel if she knew i masturbated about my step dad that we wouldn't be as close or she would think dif. of me. I also have OCD so i obsess and worry over things i don't need to. I feel like i don't deserve anything from them like they say i do. Help! Thanks

Answer 1

As you said, you have OCD and obsess and worry about things that you don't need to. Consider this one of those things that you are obsessing and worrying about over nothing. Personally, as a mother, even if I was very close to my son, I would not want to know what he masturbates to. That is his private business. Respect your privacy and hers by not telling her.

Secondly, as their child, you do deserve the things that you get from them. They love you no matter what you do or who you are. People with OCD often also have problems with self esteem and may feel like they don't deserve things.

Answer 2

I think where your real problem lies is in the masturbation. Although the suicide hotline can help you with all sorts of things, I don't believe their specialty is in masturbation. I think this website called "Masturbation addiction" will prove to be informative and answer any questions that you may have on that subject.

Answer 3

Why are you beating yourself up? That's perfectly normal. There's just some things you have to learn to keep to yourself, no matter HOW close you are to anyone, some things are better left unsaid.

Answer 4

Don't give up your Dr. You still need help.

Answer 5

so don't tell her and try not to think about him....good luck
