You don’t have to do anything. You are in control. You don’t have to BE anything. You don’t have to make a decision. Try saying maybe, maybe not but i don’t have to figure it out.

then again sometimes the constant thoughts can also make something you want or believe you want not feel right or anxious as well as depressed, so that’s not really a sign at least not in all cases

True, great awareness. Then when you realize you don’t feel anxious or depressed, how does that make you feel?

Are you also aware that you are checking for feelings? What would happen if you stopped asking yourself how you feel all the time?

@Cassandragoth I'm very scared in my mind is not to be attracted to women I can not swear I can not Jan at a time when I am ready to give up everything oh god I will have a miserable life I do not want to be gay to live with a man but now I feel like it does not matter and if I am not with a girl I swear that now I have lost everything but only when I look at girls I know that I love them I look at men face's body does not say anything to me and above all I do not want to do sex with a man I'm done

@mateus12 Yeah that’s really terrifying and I’m so sorry you’re going through that. I will probably be in the same headspace later today. That’s the thing with thoughts, we trust all of them, and we even take it a step further and believe all of our feelings. But how could we not trust our feelings? That’s all we have. Sure, but we’re focusing on the wrong feelings and checking for feelings to be there. It’s not helpful.

Another thing I’ve learned that is really helpful and is more about long term building a muscle, imagine yourself on a river bank. Your higher self, the knowing self is on a river bank and you are watching as all of your thoughts float by in the river.

No forcing necessary. What would happen if you said maybe, maybe not, and then refused to try and figure it out? What would happen if you stopped asking yourself all the time?
