Many people who have no desire to harm children, and never would, still struggle with repeated, intrusive fears that they secretly want to. This is why, and how they can get help.

Pedophilia OCD is a form of OCD associated with unwanted intrusive thoughts or fears about harming children.People with this type of OCD care deeply about not harming children, which is why their OCD latches onto this fear.Jennie Kuckertz, PhD, and Martha Falkenstein, PhD, contributed to this post. Drs. Kuckertz and Falkenstein are clinical psychologists at McLean Hospital’sIntrusive thoughts are normal.

If you’re like 94% of people , chances are you’ve had at least one intrusive thought within the past three months, shrugged it off, and moved on with the rest of your day., you may have noticed the intrusive thought and had the reaction, “This thought must mean something about me and I should do everything possible to make sure the bad thing never happens.” That thought may have ruined the rest of your day.

In OCD, intrusive thoughts tend to latch onto someone’s worst possible fears, such as thoughts about whether they might harm someone. For example, some people might worry that they will accidentally run someone over with their car, which leads them to obsessively check their rear-view window or stop driving altogether.Another common intrusive thought in OCD is whether one might be sexually attracted to children.
