Ocd can't turn us gay, if that was the case then homosexuality should be a mental illness and it's not. I'm freaking out because it feels like it's not ocd but we have to be think about how horrible we felt at the beginning and who we were (and still ARE) before this happened. We still obsess over this and that's ocd. My thoughts sometimes say "yeah it's ocd but you're gay/bi" whatever but it can't be. I guess our mind got used to this
U made me feel better thx
No worries :)
You just described how I feel
Omg thank god someone know what I mean, but do u think it’s still ocd in this case
Thank you notfortalk, you helped me out :) I don’t think we can be changed to gay since we were born straight and that’s what’s screwed in our head, and scientifically is impossible to change overnight or anything. I hope it is, EVERYTIME I see a girl I think I like her so to try to accept it I just compliment something about her and say “well yeah she has pretty eyes etc....” and it kind of goes away, but sometimes it doesn’t. I can say that today’s been slightly more survivable than yesterday. And my moods always switch from motivated and feeling like I can do this, to feeling like I can’t
If we think that we can trick our minds into being gay it means we are not. I'm pretty sure if a gay person would our thoughts they would think we are crazy lol. I know you feel because I've been getting all kind of questions in my mind and now it feels like I could actually do it. But I used a harm ocd intrusive thought as an example. As humans we are also able yo physically hurt other poeple doesn't mean WE ARE GOING TO. We could also be able to kiss someone of the same sex, doesn't mean WE ARE GOING TO. This is just ocd, just like poeple with harm ocd have urges about hurting others, we feel these urges. But this is just ocd. Because if it was we wouldn't have aggressive urges
I feel like I'm constantly thinking about the same sex. Feeling in my backside is driving me nuts 😒. And I've met this girl I like and I feel guilty as hell because I feel like I'm hiding something. I really like her but how can carry this on if I'm having these thoughts. I had these thoughts before a met her. Please help someone 😢
Sometimes when I feel false attraction, I’ll say things out of disbelief and fear, for example, I see a kid that looks older and I feel sort attraction so I panic and say “I’m attracted” “I think he’s attractive” “he is/looks attractive” ,, “he’s attractive” ,, “he looks handsome” along those lines… I panic when I say these and my brain uses it against me… I genuinely feel like a bad person. I feel like I’m genuinely attracted now and that I’m a bad person and that I need to accept it, I’m so scared. I don’t want to be this person but when I think about it, it’s like it’s not bad to be one and I don’t freak out and it makes me worry
This started happening to me in 2022 and it's gotten okay but it's still bothering me a lot. I to do erp when I get the thoughts but it really just feels like confirmation. Here's the thing the idea ALONE that I could be anything other than straight even if it is as tiny as .001% makes me feel awful because I know that the idea of being with another woman is just not for me. But the thoughts and goinals keep coming and I'm at a loss. It's just know that being with my man feels right but these thoughts are starting to affect that. I just feel so lost.
