I just had a "dont you wish she would talk to you??" In a checkout line at the store. I was like ???? N...o? Sometimes my intrusives come in first person which frightens me a little but then i remember intrusive thoughts come in all shapes, sizes and types so i just roll my eyes and go "whatever"
Brain fog sometimes can mean Depression or symptoms of depersonalization/derelazaion don't worry they are just symptoms
yeah, im aware, it sucks veryyyyy bad
Mine is more “am I?” than “what if” And then it makes me convinced I am attarctes
yeah me too!!
Just go with the flow! I just literally agree. Not easy, I unconsciously fight the thoughts with reasons against it but when I go with it it's much easier.
Sometimes it doesn’t even ask. Its like “you are” and it really feels like attraction. The most recent one for me was Sophie Turner (GOT). My head just keeps telling me I have a celebrity crush on her and I just feel so confused
We all have celebrity crushes, that's SO normal.
But... it’s a girl
Oh, look. Don't run from it it's all I can say. I have hocd and rocd themes. I'm married I had a huge note in my closet saying I might be a lesbian and maybe I should get a divorce. Hocd is not as strong but I can say 100% I don't run from the hocd thoughts the way I do with Rocd so they are almost non-existant. Be creative, say 'oh, maybe I even like aria too, or cersei, all of the women in GOT. Maybe it's possible, and then keep enjoying the episode. Agree with the thought. I know it's hard. Especially if you are super scared of it like I do of being in the wrong relationship forever or fighting for a relationship when I should just leave. Trust me. It does get better, but face the thoughts head on.
The thing is I don’t think that when I see them. It’s the fact I find joe Jonas attractive that’s I think making this happen. Whenever I find a guy attractive that has a girlfriend or wife that I don’t find that attractive it tells me “well he loves her, he found something on her so you must too” and I hate it. I thought she was pretty but now it’s too much. I don’t feel like this when I look at them alone, just when I look at their partner
Isn’t it normal when they all come in first person? Mine only appear in first person now I’m worried
They can vary. Mine are anywhere from first person to second person. They can flip flop or only be one. Theres no "right" way to have an intrusive thought really
Ok I have a question for y’all. After you have a good moment with a guy, like when you think about him and want to be with him and it feels good, does anyone get the intrusive thought “what if I’m romantically attracted to men but sexually attracted to women?” Because that just came up for me and it is not fun and very worrying. Because I have been aroused by lesbian porn (I did this before my HOCD intrusive thoughts started) and now I’m worried because I was aroused by that I can only be sexually attracted to women ?
I literally have no reason to think this! I’ve never been attracted or had a crush on a girl! I don’t know why I keep worrying. All of the sudden I feel like my feelings for all my past crushes weren’t real. This sucks. I don’t know anything about myself anymore. It keeps trying to push this idea on my head. Like there is no reason for me to think that i am gay! The most possible “reason” would be finding women attractive, that’s it! But now I try to imagine my life partner and when I think of a guy a picture of a women quickly comes up. Sometimes I just wanna scream “I am gay” for no reason. Or when someone is talking about relationships I always think “I am different”. Or when someone talks about acceptance it really bothers me too. This is so bad, what am I even basing this idea on? Now, I it’s hard imagining a guy that I like, it’s weird. I feel like I am never going to like anyone again. Ugh this is draining me
The thoughts are oh so bad again. I even can get turned on by the thought of being sexual with a girl but I really don’t want it. ( I’m a girl ). At least I don’t think I do. I looked up questioning sexuality and it said THIS MAY TRIGGER YOU— it said that if you fear it, it may be because you want it because “sexual attraction can be scary”. I don’t want to be with a girl but I feel like lately that’s all I can think about. I can’t even get turned on or get off ( sorry TMI maybe ) to the opposite sex but I can so easily with the same sex even though I don’t really want to. This is so scary I’m not sure what to do.
