sent nudes and feel paranoid

i’m 16 and i sent nudes to a stranger i met on omegle. all my friends were doing it and i felt like a prude or something so i just did it. i sent videos of myself masturbating and me in my bra. my face wasn’t in these videos or photos but they did ask for a video of my face separately and i gave it to them. this was all through snapchat and now i’m really paranoid he screenshot or something with a special app even though it tells you when someone has. i also feel disgusting for doing it and ashamed of myself. how do i stop feeling paranoid and disgusting?!!

Honestly, Omegle is mainly used for sending nudes, so it's nothing special. However, it wasn't really the best of ideas to send anything with your face in it. If the nudes didn't have your face in them then that's fine, but it wasn't really a good idea to send one with your face in it.
You will get over it with time. After a few days and weeks of nothing horrible happening, you will realise nothing will happen and life goes on.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it was a pretty poor choice on your behalf, especially since you're a minor. Honestly idk what you or any of your friends were thinking when you decided to use such an app at your age. On the bright side, since you're a minor the other party could face some serious repercussions if they chose to screenshot and or spread those images, since it's illegal. Quick question: do they know you're 16 or did you lie to them about your age?

Besides that, there's really nothing much you can do at this point. I recommend you stop contacting this person immediately as it'll only play into those negative feelings. This is definitely an experience you can learn from; we all make mistakes and become better people because of them. Don't be too harsh on yourself

I think first of all you need to accept your actions and understand that what’s done is done. Once something is sent online it’s gone and is out of your hands. Luckily, on Snapchat you can see when someone has screenshotted/recorded. If this is a person on Omegle I highly, highly doubt they would’ve taken your photos as they probably seek for girls to do this all the time.
For the future , don’t do things just because your friends are doing them, or because you will feel left out if you don’t - if this is how your friends treat you then unfortunately they are not real friends.
So accept what you have done and move on from this, you are not disgusting you have just made a mistake. Live and learn from your mistakes and most importantly do not give in to any peer pressure, real friends would not make you feel like you have to do anything. Hope this helps x
OP, please don't do this again. I know it's cliché but if your friend jumped off a bridge would you do it too?

There's no point worrying or panicking over it as nothing can be done at this point. Just take this as a life lesson.
The likelihood is that nothing will happen. Just learn from this. I wouldn’t even send nudes to a boyfriend or husband because people break up and you don’t know what could happen. Treat yourself with more respect because you’re worth more.
Did you fancy him and then get his details for snapchatting him? If it tells you when they have screenshotted then it probably is nothing to worry about also there is no point worrying about past actions just learn from it.

You can troll him and report him to the authorities for child pornography

And this kids, is why you don't send nudes.
I'll skip the lectures seeing as everyone else has got it covered.

With time you'll feel less paranoid and disgusted with yourself. These images are typically a quick **** and done and not looked at again. Being underage too if he were to spread the material around he would be the one who gets in trouble. In a few weeks time these initial feelings of worry and self-hatred will pass and you won't even be thinking about it anymore.

This is the reason why it's never a good idea to send nudes.
As I have suggested in a similar thread, you don't know who these people are, especially in the strangest world of the internet and don't know their real intentions.

I hope this experience has convinced you not to do it again.
well it's done now and you should never violate yourself like that just because your friends are doing it, you need to face up to the concequences now. Its happened.. so sooner or later when time goes on you will get over it.
