I don’t understand how I can accept this as just “thoughts” when it’s not just thoughts; it’s memories, arousal, feelings. I don’t see how I can write this off as ocd.

@lennygirl It feels the same i saw something on an ott platfrom of this woman in a particular pose and i wanted to watch it cause of that I don’t think there’s any bigger proof than that of denial amd not ocd I didn’t feel anxious or nervous i wanted to watch it and it felt i wanted to cause I wasn’t straight which I don’t even know how that thought came it felt like my reality my truth and not an intrusive thought cause i would have enjoyed watching it and just saying and considering all this is enough proof to say that it couldn’t be ocd and even that is not making me anxious or nervous when it should why does it feel like i want it do i??! What if i do?!? Who am i?!? I feel like i don’t even know myself anymore and all this is like the figuring out thing what do i do?!?

I understand but it feels like my reality like what i want and i am just lying to myself like why was i pulled towards that picture of this woman answer would be i wanted to watch it cause i am interested in it why would i be?!? Who am i?!? This all always points towards denial otherwise why would a straight person enjoy these thoughts or want to pursue them and i not feel anxious or nervous about them and want to watch them idk if its ocd doing this to me or what?!? But all proof point towards something else i am so lost don't know what to do?!?is this even ocd ?!? What do i do?!? I am so lost..

@Brave through if you were pulled by it then it might have been a compulsion to check if you were attracted

@Brave through compulsions are sneaky and it’s very common for the anxiety to go away just like mine did
