Dear Neha:

You are welcome. You thanked me and said that you are “feeling better after this”- “this” being my previous reply to you. Thing with OCD is that any reply feels better only for a little while and then the obsession returns.. and you need another reply to feel better.. and another, and another.  An obsession is like an itch that needs to be scratched. So you post, presenting your itch. I reply, scratching that itch, you feel better for a while, then you feel the itch again etc.

You wrote that you feel “strange and weird” when watching a romantic movie, seeing “a girl and boy together”- by strange-and-weird, do you mean that you feel a physical/ sexual attraction to the girl in the movie?

And by you becoming “very conscious about my surroundings”- do you mean that you are afraid that people around you noticed that you feel an attraction toward a girl in the movie, that you become afraid of being found out?

In regard to my OCD, my beginning Obsessions (the O of the OCD) was that something that I think (a thought) will cause my mother to die.. so I performed rituals (=Compulsions, the C of the OCD) to prevent her from dying  by canceling, or neutralizing my thoughts.
