OCD, in its different forms responds quite well to SSRIs and CBT. The primary difference between obsessive thoughts and non-obsessive thoughts is the affective (negative) component attached to them. Sexual preoccupations are extremely common. While you have received reassurance that these are normal thoughts (which they are) if you have been cognitively associated with anxiety reassurance will not work. Benzo's (particularly clonazepam) can be helpful during initial tx to minimize the disruptive anxiety. Remember, OCD usually responds to SSRIs at the highest optimal dosing. Good Luck. This is entirely manageable.
