Me! I feel like soocd and ROCD came up from me when I got married because marriage is a huge permanent decision. I think HOCD comes up a lot for us married gals because it’s like the only way your mind will convince you that you’ll never be happy because you picked not only the wrong person but the wrong gender! Just laugh and accept it and sit with the anxiety. Try not to dig into a rumination hole. You got this!

Thank girly. It’s so hard because my intrusive thoughts come in as urges as well and they feel pleasure so it’s beyond confusing

Not to get all religious, but I started reading Bible studies on anxiety and within hours I felt a huge weight lifted. I had one more rough day after that, and ever since, it's been improving. Today was my first flare up since then but it's nothing like what it was. Not that that's the answer for everyone but if you have any belief that God exists whatsoever, maybe try that. I was almost convinced there wasn't a God until I was reassured with that.

My soocd feels like it takes up everything in my life. The triggers are everywhere. I am a straight female, 18, and I have a wonderful boyfriend, my ROCD used to be my main theme but now it’s shifted to SOOCD. I’ve always since I was a little girl dreamt of having a “prince” and a family. And when I experienced bad ROCD I feared that when I start a family it wouldn’t be with my partner. But now with SOOCD whenever I think of my future of having a family I have intrusive thoughts about it being with a girl(really embarrassed to share that)..and I just don’t like it! I wish I didn’t have those intrusive thoughts. I’ve always loved imagining a future with my boyfriend and now I feel like OCD has just taken that over. Anyone else? It’s like the intrusive thoughts are almost instant. So annoying!! Sometimes I fear this will last forever😫even though I know it won’t.

Hi! Anyone dealing with SO OCD and have a partner? I am having the hardest time with this. The thoughts and feelings feel so real and scary but there’s moments where I have felt love and attraction for my boyfriend, but right now it feels so hard to believe that was true.

How does SOOCD affect your relationship?
I recently started liking this girl. She likes me and It feels amazing. I’ve been dealing with SOOCD for a while now and I was scared when I first fell for her because I knew how badly my OCD was. My OCD has flared up so much since and it tells me I don’t like this girl or that I rather be with a guy. A lot of what if questions as well. I would like to know for those in relationships and struggling with Sexual Orientation OCD, how has this affected your relationship. I don’t want to feel alone in all this. I’ve had many themes before this one and OCD is telling me it’s different this time.
