Read this article it explains a lot- http://www.psychologyandbehavior.com/hocd-homosexual-ocd-sexual-orientation/

yes, it sucks very bad :( we can fight through this though!

me too! it feels like i’ve lost myself. what i don’t get is that i love what i look like and my female body but i get so worried that i feel like a guy inside and ughhh what doesn’t help is that the ocd is good at replicating what that could feel like and it makes you feel worse and anxious so you can’t feel like you and that makes everything seem even more real

i have this too, its tocd - transgender ocd. ive had it for years

no , not really. i refuse to take antidepressants because they wont do alot. changing your thinking is the key

try to practise mindfulness

i have the same thing too—it’s so horrible. i hate how real it feela

how long has it been? it’s been almost a month for me... my mind keeps imagining me as a guy and it’s so so hard to fight. i hate it so much. do you find that it seems like it mistakes attraction for wanting to be a guy? i hate this ghh

ughh me too! what worries you? like, what are your triggers?

ughh same. my mind constantly will make me imagine myself as a guy doing the things i’m doing and i hate it

not really. i’m with a really small support group on snapchat but not much else. i’m really struggling and it feels like i’ve sorta forgotten who i truly am since there’s so much anxiety

me too! and my mind tries to make me feel as if i think i’m trapped as a girl and that frustrates me. it also makes me overanalyse what i do: my voice, walk, actions, attractions, body, thoughts, etc to see if i’m acting like a guy

me too!! actually exactly the same here :/ it’s like,,, men are so attractive my mind makes me think i want to be one

me too :/ i’ve always loved being a girl and i’m so confused. are you ever so worried about being dysphoric your brain tries to make you feel like you are?

oh no! i’m so sorry!! do you need anything? i feel so so bad

me too. it worries me since i’m 15 that i’m still kinda young but i’ve always always been happy being a girl and if i ever had the passing thought of being trans like we all do i would brush it off knowing i was super comfortable as a girl and loved my body. so that’s reassuring that i’m not dysphoric at least

please do! this is so tough to deal with and we need all the help we can get. i have the same thoughts so you’re definitely not alone! it’s all ocds lies

sure! thanks so much! i feel like part of it is ocds creativity and our ability to empathise with others

do you ever quickly imagine yourself as a guy? i hate this so much. my mind makes it seem like i want that since i want to be with a guy but it feels so real

yeah

yes all the time and i hate it

me also! it’s the worst when there’s an attractive guy on tv or movies and my mind is like what would that feel like? you’re jealous! you wanna be one!

same here ughhh,,, i’ll be happy and fine and then a bit later i’ll be back into the worry spiral and feeling like i’m not me

phew! do you struggle with comparing yourself to guys and girls? i hate that my mind makes it seem like i can relate to guys but not girls :/
