    Hey so i noticed a conflict between how to cure PMO induced sexual-OCD..

    It has been proven that Exposure Therapy is the most effective form of OCD treatment after CBT ..
    But at the same time people on no PMO should not be exposed to pornography of any sort, especially the fetish that one is OCD:ing about...

    So what is a proper way to treat the two without the treatments conflicting with each other? Some people cure their sexual-OCD during no PMO but that's not a guarantee though.. although that would be kind of CBT self-therapy when u try to avoid the porn thought and intrusions and classify them as a problem, therefore changing ur behavioral patterns..

    Any clarification or experience?
