A therapist can help walk you through the meaning and origin of these thoughts. I am sure they are causing some discomfort, so it would behoove you to seek a professional opinion.

Thanks for your advice.
I have been diagnosed with OCD and these thoughts, after nearly two decades of reasearch into OCD, do not have subconcious, or Freudian pshchodynamic roots (what does!!?). OCD is an anxiety disorder and is certainly nothing to do with supressed meanings or "hidden" trauma.
