I knew this would be an answer but to be honest it just fills me with more anxiety because I can’t tell if it feels good or not or if it feels good but then I just dwell on it not wanting to feel good :/

@Anonymous That makes sense, I used to get anxious cos I was so nervous about my body image and things like that but not specifically because it was a boy I don’t think, I also went to an all girls school growing up which made boys this intimidating thing:/ It’s so hard to tell cos it’s usually when I’m drunk that I analyse and think maybe I could fancy a woman but then when I’m sober I freak out and start over thinking it all It’s not helped by the fact I live with my boyfriend who I love to pieces and just can’t bear the thought of having to leave him Thank you for responding and being understanding:) I really appreciate it

Hi there! Thank you so much for sharing on here. I’ve definitely been in your shoes, and it certainly doesn’t feel good. Have you created some exposures around this obsession? As distressing as it is in the beginning, it will be very helpful to decrease your anxiety in the long run. You could say statements like, “I may or may not be attracted to women.“ Or you could say, “I am uncertain about my sexuality.“ It will definitely bring on the stress in the beginning, but the more you do it, the more your brain will except the uncertainty and it won’t rule your mind anymore. I know that I’ll see you feel strong, but remember that you are stronger!

I have really bed harming intrusive thoughts and sometimes feels like it’s feeling! The thoughts happening every day and the hardest part is that I’m testing my self in head all the time if that’s what I am or want!!! Also, so many times feels like I’m been tricking myself and doctor or people and maybe I don’t have OCD, just that maybe it’s me really!!!! How can I know who I am really 🥹???!!??

I keep getting thoughts of this 6 year old kid n I don’t know what to do, they keep coming and they give me a sense of attraction, I don’t wanna be attracted to kids, it feels too real as well, I feel a need to check if I was attracted or not constantly, and it genuinely feels like attraction, please help me I don’t wanna be a pedo. Whenever I try to think abt something romantic or about someone my age I’m actually into, that kid keeps popping up.
