(TW masturbation & Intrusive thoughts)Tried an exposure technique for my sexual OCD and it backfired

I’ll likely delete this post later.
I don’t feel comfortable saying what theme of sexual OCD it is, but I fear of having a sexual attraction to a certain thing.
Usually when treating OCD, the best way is to expose yourself. I thought it was a good idea to expose myself by masturbating to porn with this certain thing. I felt dizzy, scared and shakey I instantly orgasmed.
I’m so terrified it’s not actually OCD and I’m actually attracted to this thing. It’s nothing illegal but it’s something that deeply disgusted me since I was a child. And I’ve struggled with this since I was a child.
I’m terrified I’m in denial.
