Im so sorry you are so young dealing with this. It is so hard but remember ocd is just ocd no matter the theme. I have this theme too and it’s so hard because it feels like it’s trying to take over your identity. It’s been so hard for me today because I am married with two kids and it’s trying to tell me I don’t love my husband and I’m not my kids mom, I’d rather be a man (which I don’t) and have always loved being a woman. We have to stay strong and show ocd who’s boss. I’m sorry, I know how hard the struggle is

It really does and I believe the hardest thing about this is is how hard it is to separate the symptoms . I swear there’s times that I’m like “ wth that’s fucking ridiculous I know who I am “ and then there’s that stupid thought like are you really happy in your own body ? Don’t you want a change ? Don’t you wanna feel something different? . Granted I remember I always said I wonder how it felt to be the opposite sex but I thought most people had that thought out of curiosity. But I don’t actually wanna strip myself from who I really am you know ? It’s so frustrating and this theme is so strong to me . Just when I think it’s going away it comes back . I want to be a girl again. When I see other women I feel less then and ashamed of myself because I feel like less of a woman and like a man ... I hate it honestly

Yess same! the worst part for me are the feelings. Like I can one time be convinced I want to be a guy and other times i can actually feel like a guy! It’s so awful! I’m glad you get it though!

Yeah it’s like a feeling of masculinity. It makes me feel less confident in myself . This theme traumatized me so much that I keep stalling on getting my nails done because I’m afraid that I’m going to hate it. But what’s crazy is today I saw all the girls at my job dressing nice with their nails done and I felt like a piece of shit

Yeah It’s almost like jealous of both genders. fake Jealousy of men and jealousy of women that they do what you want to do that you aren’t letting yourself do or are worried you hate. Do you ever feel happy as a girl but suddenly self aware in a weird way? like you suddenly don’t believe it or your mind says that isn’t you even though you felt like yourself as a girl for a while?

I’ve felt like a girl my entire life and I’m 18 so you can imagine how weird and disturbing it is for my mind to tell me I want to completely Change my life in a way I’ve never imagined nor wanted to

I’m worried this’ll lead to something but this is me: I’m a fifteen year old girl who’s struggled with this for a while. In January, I was hit with Harm OCD and it turned into Trans OCD mid march. I’ve had a history getting obsessed with things and my worry spiralling often and out of control

There are many forms of ocd in the world I believe that theres been at least one person in the world who's worried about the thoughts people with ocd have. We just have to be strong

As a lesbian with SO-OCD, I feel so helpless. It's truly exhausting because no one I know understands what I'm going through. The first response is always, "You're just confused" or "You don't have to know yet." But that's not the issue, I do know. I just never see any lesbians with SO-OCD so I feel so invalidated. These thoughts flood my brain constantly, forcing me to analyze my reactions to every man I see. I feel trapped in an endless cycle of "testing" myself, trying to prove that I don't like them. But my brain fights back, telling me I do want to love a man, making it feel real even though don't want it. It's terrifying. At this point, it's hard to even hold onto my identity as a lesbian because I'm so overwhelmed. I don't know if this is what real attraction is supposed to feel like, and that fear eats away at me. The truth is, when I think about being with a man, all I feel is disgust and fear-but my brain twists that into doubt. I hate it. I'm at the point where I'm scared I'm going to have to accept something I don't want because I don't know if this will ever go away. I miss who I was before all this.
