A member asked:

Is it normal for a teen boy with ocd to feel really guilty about sexual thoughts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not uncommon: This situation is not uncommon. Is the OCD controlled or partially controlled? This adds to the normal "guilt" a teenager would have about this. Seek a mental health professional for help.
