obsession

hi i am 27 years of age. I have this habit of forming physical presence of male genitail in face. it appears middle of nowhere, when having conversation. i just get stuck in it, and people really starting making fun of it. i know how ridiculous it is. it has almost been 2 months, but i still have this obsession.I paid visit to psychologist. he recommend me oleanz rt 5.  I have tried this medicine for almost  a month. I even told him about behavioral therapy. he said it isn't neceassay, and i am just getting panic. It is still in me. i tried to disassociate with this thought of forming image. this has almost been a part of me. Is this related to OCD?, the chemical imbalance as serotonin. please recommend me some good medication. such help will be greatly appreciated.

Please don't get upset if members do not always understand what you are trying to say. It can be hard for any of us to understand (or explain) our troubles to other readers. Sometimes it's difficult for us to even understand things ourselves and that is why we are on this site. I don't think anyone means to make fun of you, just like I don't believe you meant to be cross either. Texting is the same. So difficult to put some of these things into words. We all need Patience!!  But I agree with the person about a psychiatrist!  It may be good for you to see someone and get a proper Dx (or second option!) that doesn't sound like OCD to me (you may have that also, but that description doesn't sound like that to me. But, I'm not a doctor. Maybe even a sexual disorder/addiction?! Best of luck to you!

yes, JGF25, It is sumwhat related. I get this male genitail in my mind and consequently, forming image in the physical form in face. yes, nursegirl it is as like drawing. just the difference is like i picturise it in my mind and eventually, giving birth to the thought. I think it surely is related to obsession.
      WELL, ARE U PEOPLE THE DOCTORS OR JUST INTERESTED IN MY TOPIC, JUST U GUYS FIND IT AMUSING.

Is this something that happens when you are talking to people?  When you are looking at a person and talking to them, you get an image of male genitalia in your mind and you cannot make this mental image go away?

I'm with nursegirl on this............I also cannot understand exactly what is happening to you and her questions are serious and important for us to grasp this problem.
Please do not think we are making fun of you.........it may be a language issue.
Peace

It doesn't sound ridiculous, I have no idea what you mean?  You form male genitalia ON your face?  Someone else's face?  You imagine this?  Or draw this?  How is it people are making fun of you, do you tell them?  Are you seeing male parts places?  I'm not being funny, I seriously cannot understand what you are trying to explain.  Could you try to explain again?

nurse girl: i think i have quite explain what i am going through. this habit of forming male genitail in face has quite turned into obsession, and i am completely entangled in it. It is as though like creating image in face and other parts of body. i think i am completely obsessed with such. I know how ridiculous it sounds.
