Sexual obsessions: It may not be voices.Sexual obsessions are common symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (ocd). The literal content of these obsessions superficially resembles other types of iterative sexual ideation, as seen in , ptsd, and normal sexual fantasy. However, their form, function, and effect on behavior vary greatly. A failure for a physician to distinguish these items can lead to wrong treatment.

See psychiatrist now: If you actually hear an audible voice - like hearing the voice of someone when you are interacting with them - that comes from inside your head, this is more likely an auditory hallucination. This does not necessarily mean that you are schizophrenic, as many conditions can cause them - many that are easily treatable. For now do not respond to any of their commands or believe what is said.
