Hi I’m so sorry, I feel like I remember seeing a post of yours about HOCD that really resonated with me. Could we talk?

@Cassandragoth I was wondering if you identified as bisexual or straight.

@lennygirl Hmmm. I’m trying not to let labels matter. I sometimes think I’m attracted to girls, but I mostly like men emotionally and physically, and I’m not sure where I lay on that scale. I can only say this when I’m not anxious. When I’m anxious about it, it’s hard to let myself not know, I either like boys or girls. But you have to let yourself not know and really allow that and accept it and accept the anxiety that comes with it.

@Cassandragoth I’m so afraid of being anything but straight, though. I only want to be straight. I don’t understand why this is, but that’s how it is. I have suffered from HOCD on and off since I was 12 and I feel like I have to be gay because of how long it has been.

@lennygirl Yeah I mean I feel the same way when I’m having an episode. It’s just so important to tell yourself that you do not know and you can not know and you will not know and that’s ok. And that doesn’t mean anything. None of this means anything. And if it did, well you’ll never know the meaning. I’m having the same issue with my relationship right now. I keep taking every little thing as oh we aren’t meant to be and I panic because I just want to be with him.

Anxious about looking for treatment
I'm anxious about looking for/starting therapy even though I know it'll be worth it. I'd love to hear any advice/experiences anyone is comfortable sharing!

Who is this?
Does anyone know a user on Instagram / “ocd advocate”? It’s a girl probably in her twenties, has her hair up, used to be Catholic and has a tattoo? She was on my Instagram page out here advocating for soocd while her biggest fear became true. I’m really not okay with that cause she triggered so many people. Pls let me know.

So thankful to have found this app 😭 my 15 year old is struggling with what is unofficially diagnosed OCD (counselor is starting the process to diagnose but she fits SO much of what we’re reading and she’s at least 4th generation OCD’r). We are in a bad spiral right now with her, especially centered around sleep and it just feels so hard. Just wanted to say thank you for helping me not feel alone.
