Memory reassurance compulsion and possibly real event OCD

I have this terrible compulsion of replaying a memory in my mind to see how was I feeling during a certain event. It's gotten to a point where I clearly remember what I felt but my intrusive thoughts will say otherwise and feeling is extremely strong and convincing.

This has been extremely harmful and because of it I am continuously relapsing. Any help regarding this will be appreciated.

Well, I suffer from intrusive thoughts about rape and molestation. In order to reason with the thoughts I recall rape scenes from movies or tv series. My mind will tell that I was aroused by them even though my real memory says otherwise.
