I accidentally leered at someone and I feel terrible

[SaltandLightTeacher]

I was on the train and had just gotten off, I saw someone and promptly had an intrusive thought. I then briefly leered at them for a second before I caught myself and was horrified. This was not a person I had any interest in (inapropriate target) and I can only hope they didn't see me. I feel horrible. I don't really think of anyone that way. (I suspect I have asexual leanings)
My OCD is now insisting that I sexually harassed them and should be punished.
Please pray for me.

I wasn't looking anywhere specifically, just at the person in general. But OCD is... Persistent to say the least.

I understand how it is with OCD!

What do YOU think you should do?

What do YOU think you should do?

What can I do? I committed no crime and prayed for forgiveness. I'll try to do better. That's all I can do.

Have you ever watched Mark DeJesus' videos about OCD on YouTube?
