See some of that scares me because I can’t really remember my crushes when I was younger I mean I thought boys were really cute I always have. I’ve never really been boy crazy and that scares me. I mean hocd doesn’t make since and it doesn’t affect me that much anymore. I do remember I was obsessed with the boy from the kissing booth omg he was so cute. I also liked the Curly haired boy from high school musical. I had a hugeeee crush on a boy in 6th grade, I imagined me and him dating in high school. I daydreamed about him allllll the time. This is embarrassing but I remember I made a sims family of me and him (I was weird?) I guess that all is proof. I mean I’m only a sophomore in high school so I still have more boys to come. Also right now this boy is texting me he’s really cute and sweet. But right now I can’t tell if it’s a crush. He’s funny too ughhh hocd is so confusing??

Omg the guy from the kissing booth ? so hot!! I was more of a troy Bolton gal myself but all of my attraction towards men seems watered down rn idk how to explain it and I even had a crush on my guy cousins which is so weird but I was very young I didn’t know that like that was a thing that you don’t do lol it sounds super weird...on top of that I had huge crushes on my brothers friends it doesn’t make sense

I liked Troy Bolton too! Yeah attractions very confusing. Also I’ve had many boys play with my heart so that could be part of the reason I have hocd. I’m at the beach right now and I’ve seen sooooo many hot boys? I can still tell that I like boys it’s all just weird idk

I’ve completely lost myself. I can’t focus on my studies, I can’t go to the gym. Dang it I can’t even be around my male friends normally anymore. I got no idea why or how this happened but the only thing I know for sure is that I never questioned my sexuality neither doubted it. I never cared in general. I just liked girls. I keep testing and keep testing and keep testing my arousal but no matter how many times I see but I don’t feel the same way for guys that I do with girls my mind will always try to make me believe that I am gay. It’s like it’s forcing me into an identity I never asked for. But at the end of the day like my psychologist told me. Sexuality doesn’t change. So since I never felt anything for guys in my life it’s ocd. I’ve been up and down for 5 months now and while the last week I was feeling way better. Monday now and I’m back to zero. I just want to go back when everything was normal. I can’t keep living with this.

I need too know that I'm not insane, really. I am 16 and for the past two weeks, this has been completely ruining my health and happiness. I only recently came out as a lesbian like 3 months ago after a lot of confusion about my attraction since I used to think I liked men. At first, I felt so sure that I liked women, but lately, I've been having these unwanted thoughts about the possibility of liking men. I never used to feel this way, but now, every time I look at a man, my brain obsessively fixates on it. It forces me to imagine kissing him, loving him, things I don’t want, and then tries to convince me that I do. It’s painful. The thought of this fills me with fear and anxiety, leading to panic attacks and breakdowns. I don’t want these thoughts. I hate them with every fiber of my being, but I’m terrified that one day I’ll act on them and somehow like it. I used to think I liked men, but back then, I was in a very unhealthy space in a time of escapism and something deeply parasocial. I’ve only ever liked the attention and validation a man could give me, but these experiences are somehow treated as further proof that I’m "bisexual." I’ve never been in a real relationship with anyone, which makes my brain constantly challenge me—telling me, “You don’t even know what love feels like.” It won’t shut up. It keeps obsessively trying to make me prove that I’m a lesbian, testing my reactions and questioning my certainty. Is this normal?

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.
