Worries about pedophilia

I hope you didn't take your post off because of mine, David.

I was just trying to join in the fun.

Terri, the person who burgled your house doesn't know you. And he's probably busy using your computer to look at porn of his own.

Isn't it time to wonder why you worry about everything, so much?

Even if they monitor searches and image searches, they would still need to find something on your computer. If you're not too sure about what your browser may have cached, or any deleted files that may be able to be restored, there's software that can help.

One basic one is Webroot's SpySweeper. It's mainly an anti-virus / anti-spyware package, but has a system cleanup option that digitally shreds internet caches and other temporary files to make them unrecoverable. At one point, you could have it clean all the free-space on your drives as well, but it looks like they took out that functionality for some reason. Anyhow, that will help clean up the windows/internet side of things.

There's freeware programs that can clean your free-space for you as well, which is a good idea if you had files that were merely deleted instead of shredded. One I've played with is called Eraser (Please scan any freeware programs for viruses before installing them). It can take a bit longer depending on how many passes you want the software to make, and how much free space is left on the drive.

I honestly wouldn't worry in your situation, but I do know what it's like to worry. Hopefully this helps some, because it sounds like you don't need the extra stress =)

Is it worth trying to resolve a problem if u'll just create a new one for yourself? Well at the time it certainly feels like it... 'if i could only get over THIS problem, then id be OK'

Have you ever heard that insanity is repeating the same action over and over expecting a different result?

I think you'd beneft from some cognitive behaviour therapy.

I've been where u r. Just one anxiety after the next. I'm positive you'll get over this pattern one day but you gotta make that choice dude. I ducked out for a few months and can't believe this is still going on for u. But then again I cant say I dont know what you're going through, its a vicious cycle and I feel for ya.

Peace and love!

Hey good to hear from you enigma glad your still here

As for terrified I have to agree with Enigma and to stop ratting yourself out to the cops. Judging from your links you live in the UK and I am not sure how their laws and their jails are. But in the good ol' USofA people who have our problem are murdered either in jail or on the street. Not trying to scare you but there are severe consaquences to being "outed". Here is the best advice I can give as someone who is going through a similar problem. Call a Doctor or councilor, you have not probably broken any laws (I told my councilor that I had in the past ie. porn but that I don't now because of fear) if told to a doctor in confidence it should be protected... unless you are under 18 because then he might have to report his findings to your mum or papa. (sorry little European stereotype) After that they might refer you to a specialist since I live in the good ol' USofA I was sent to a doctor who thankfully is in my state. Now not many doctors work on this subject and it may be hard to find one. If you do see one expect a heck of a long interview (around 4 hours) and possibly some odd tests. This is going to be a long painful road since health care does not cover this in most cases so the out of pocket expense might be high. I would also find a sex addicts anonymous group because that can help. Would probably keep the specifics under wraps since it is such a tough subject. (someone can talk about sleeping with hookers and going to parlors but you might get your butt kicked if they find out more) Watch what you lookup online most sites will either tell you your fine and to do it or tell you to die in an assortment of bad ways.

You seem from your messages to be a bit OCD so finding a councilor is highly recommended.

A bit of info on where I am coming from:

I was raised petocotal protestant Christian so our views on homosexuality where that it was a choice or a weakness to sin. I converted to Catholicism 2 years ago and base some of my observations on pedophilia on their view of homosexuality. Being a pedophile is like being a homosexual it is not sinful but our cross to bare. What is sinful is when we give in to these temptations because we put a bareir between us and God. If you slip their is always forgiveness.

I am not trying to be preachy because I know what that is like, I just thought it might help you understand my rational of things. Now if your believes are different I would recommend you look to see what their teachings are. and lastly if you have none I would sujest you look up secular moralty.

Hope I helped in anyway I didn't mean to irritate anyone and if I did it was not on purpose
