Same here. My mind is telling me to just accept it but I cannot live with myself if it is true that I am actually a lesbian. I feel so ashamed and every time I say in my head that it would be okay if I was, I freak out even more because I do not want that to be who I am. I am so scared that this is how I was born and I’ll never be able to change it.

You can do this, this is your ocd taking over your mind!! Accept and acknowledge that this thought is making you anxious and accept and acknowledge that you may not ever know the answer to these questions. You can do this!!

I had a bad rumination spiral yesterday and went to bed hoping I’d start over in the morning. I was wrong. I had dreams about liking women and not being attracted to men anymore and my entire body has been in a state of anxiety since. I genuinely feel like I’m gay and just need to accept it. I have this urge to accept it. Maybe if I do I’ll get some sort of relief because this feeling is awful. I feel like my brain is telling me that I’ll get relief if I just accept it and come out. The intrusive thoughts don’t even seem to be around sexual images anymore, just to come out.

I don’t know what to do with this bs anymore. I’m crying again and again and again and again. I cannot describe how painful this is. I’ve recovered from every single OCD subtype expect this one. HOCD is so scary and it’s so incredibly scary how it feels so real. The issue with this subtype is how intertwined it is with feelings and sensations. I hate how it keeps latching onto the past and uses the past as proof. I don’t want it to be the truth. I don’t want to accept any possibility.
