You definitely have OCD and you are also too arrogant to accept any help. You act and feel like you’re the only person in the entire world to ever have OCD and you ignore any help anyone tries to offer you. You have no intention of challenging your obsessions and you’ve been posting about the same thing for almost an entire year. You are not as special as you think you are. Millions of other people have felt exactly like you at one point in time. You need to stop ignoring everyone who tries to help you in favor of deciding you have the most special brain ever that magically made you the one person who became gay from ocd. You need to wake up and connect with the rest of humanity. Stop thinking of yourself as the worst person in the entire world who has the most special type of messed up brain that the universe has ever seen.

Man I get why youre so annoyed and pissed off but you literally dont know me, I havent even been on this app for a year, just for a few months, nor am I arrogant to accept help, i may have come of as that perhaps probably due to language barrier or my lack of ability to think clearly and just 4-5 months ago i was dying to see any therapist I couldve, researching for hours on end for any ocd therapist. I dont think im special but I do think my fears (not anymore I guess) came true and i actually realized Im gay. I dont ignore anyones advice, I get it, from your pov it may seem like that but you think I enjoy burning in anxiety attacks everyday nonstop, feeling suicidal and unhappy. It literally dosent seem like ocd which is what j was trying to understand how would a ocd therapist help when the thoughts came true. And If it is indeed ocd then my thoughts simultaneously came true with it. And I actually have an appointment with a ocd therapist tommorow, doubt it will help me with anything since its all true anyways.

@Imaan7 It doesn’t seem like you want to be sick, you very obviously want help and need to talk about what you’re feeling, but you also won’t listen. Again, you’re talking about your sexuality and how it came true and how you don’t have ocd. IT DOESNT MATTER IF IT CAME TRUE OR NOT! That is not the point and it never has been and so many people have told you that and you shrug it off. Your sexuality isnt the issue. It’s not. It doesn’t matter. Figuring that out isn’t going to make you happy. Your last sentence is more not listening. You don’t want it to help. You are looking for triggers and proof and validation in every single conversation you have. That’s the whole problem. You have to let go of the need to figure this out. You have to stop believing the lie that your sexuality is the reason you feel like this. Stop saying “it doesn’t seem like ocd”. You know good and well that it’s ocd. You’ve had people tell you over and over again that they feel the EXACT same way you do, but somehow you’re the special one on this ocd app who has all of the symptoms but no ocd? That’s why I’m telling you you’re being arrogant. There are people all around you on this app who know exactly how you feel and have so many good ideas on how to redirect your thinking. But you keep saying you don’t have ocd and your ocd beliefs were actually just true things about you. You’re the only one who managed to have every symptom of ocd but you’re actually just gay and you’re doomed forever because of that. Stop it! If it’s not OCD then go to an lgbt forum to talk about your sexuality or sign up to dating app and explore your newfound identity. You know dmn well you won’t and have no desire to but you’re ignoring everything and jumping into the delusion. You HAVE to wake up to this. You have to be willing to listen to us on here. You have to stop giving into your magical thinking. Your thoughts are not that powerful. You are not that powerful or special or damaged. You are not the ONE person who has it this way and you’re just not going to feel better if you don’t stop letting yourself believe this is all about your damn sexuality. It doesn’t matter. It’s not the issue. It doesn’t matter if it came true or not. Break this circle you’re in.

@💩 I understand all that, months ago your comment wouldve really really motivated me to seek help but i feel nothing and its not even the gay part thats bothering me as much thinking that im trans. And i dont even know what my core fear is besides feeling deeply embarrased that Im going to have to come out like that. Its giving me constant anxiety and depression.

I told a few people on social media about my OCD, including POCD and how distressing it is. But everyone went quiet, then a few hours later I posted that I don’t support pedophilia at all neither do I justify it or am a pedo. Then someone replied with: “I think someone might take it bc u have such an obsessive fear of it u might have actual p3 do philic tendencies” I can’t do this anymore, I’m terrified to spiral again like a few months ago but I’m on the brink of doing it again. I’m shaking and stressing tf out I hate this so so so so so much

Hey guys. I feel like no one will even reply to my post. I feel anxious af. I could barley eat a plate of soup. I feel so drained and fatigued and feel the anxiety in my stomach. I'm just so worried I don't even have harm ocd anymore. Its just... I grew up in a household where swatting people was normalized like if you did something really naughty. I never really questioned it and I grew up thinking it was an okay thing and would sometimes swat someone when they are being naughty growing up and even recently. I would never swat someone at full force or enough to make someone cry just more like a hard tap to get their attention but it feels automatic? And even then it's really really rare for me to do, i much rather talk sternly or tell someone. When i do swat its bc like if someone scared me I guess I hit their hand and say "THAT SCARED ME" and we both start laughing or if my older niece was roughhousing with her younger sister and the younger one gets hurt and the older one laughs, I swat the older one once or twice on her arm as a discipline and say "what is wrong with you??? Why are you laughing? You are much older than her! You could've seriously hurt her." And idk how but i never thought like how wrong this is?!... and I feel like sh/t like ocd keeps saying "well you have swatting impulses when someone is misbehaving or if someone scares or hits you, meaning if you get an impulse to do something really evil instead, you wouldnt be able to control yourself huh?" And I started to get so anxious and scared. Ive NEVER acted out on the harm ocd thoughts (nor do i even want to) ive been getting daily for 4 years even when they are misbehaving. But i get so scared like WHAT IF I get an impulse to do the evil thoughts? What if I lose control?! Is this a history of violence/ low impulse?! Does this mean i would act out on my fears?! I've never wanted to do these thoughts before but i get scared like what if I do one day? This whole day ive been ruminating and asking ai for reassurance. I feel terrible. I feel like a horrible person. I started to cry. I just cant anymore. I feel this weight on my chest. I feel so evil so irredeemable. I f/cking suck. I hate myself so much right now. I feel so much guilt and shame. Why am I still here anymore? Maybe i dont even have ocd and maybe i never did. This is just breaking my heart. I want to change and unlearn this swatting behavior as well for sure. :(
