I've always liked woman I'm 20 years old and I always 100% believed I was straight. can I just become gay? It just came out of nowhere 5 months ago and now it seems like I like guys and I'm becoming gay. How can that just happen?
Omg i get this. But for me it’s the opposite. I always thought I liked girls but idk if it’s true or it’s just intrusive thoughts.
I just don't know how I could just turn gay? I've always liked woman
@Anonymous So u don’t think you like men anymore?
@janae kirmales No I've always liked woman and now since like 5 months ago I've started thinking I'm gay or I might be gay and idk how that could just change
@Anonymous It doesn't just change. You're in the right place, try to look up doing exposure or find a therapist to guide you
@jdd Thank you! But why does it feel like I'm attracted to guys I'm so confused
@Anonymous False attraction, why did you start thinking you're gay??
@Grm2 ⬇️
@emilyvictoria Thank you so much! I appreciate you responding. Would you say I sound like I have hocd?
@emilyvictoria Again thank you. Does it make you truly feel attracted to the same gender?
@emilyvictoria And it's hard for me to find woman fully attractive like I used too
@emilyvictoria - Do you mind me asking how old you were when you went through so-ocd. I'm currently 24 and it started at 21. Whenever I try to sit with uncertainty and not figure it out my brain yells at me "but you have your answer and your just denying it"
@emilyvictoria At times idk if I have the desire or not I'm just so confused I don't want to be gay but at times it seems like I do. It's so weird again I'm just confused
@emilyvictoria Honestly I feel like all of that! But it's hard to tell my thoughts from my intrusive thoughts. Is that ocd too?
@emilyvictoria So it all has to be OCD and not actually us!
@emilyvictoria That's awesome That your feeling a little better! So do you think it's all just ocd then for yourself?
@emilyvictoria Well I'm happy your getting there! I think I might have that too! I don't I have OCD a lot too
@emilyvictoria Yeah I am! It's helped some but I think some of the trouble I do myself with putting situations in my head and testing myself constantly and then I do that so much I think that's why I feel attracted to guys
@emilyvictoria Yeah honestly I feel like I really like guys and idk why I honestly can't tell anymore if I like it or not I am worried I'm actually gay I've always liked woman so much
I honestly don't remember I think possibly what really made it worse was a guy that was gay hit on me and was saying inappropriate things to me and I also have a really hard time finding woman attractive and idk why
The mind is very powerful if you tell it something it will believe it even if it ain't true. It can mimic stuff sometimes it feels like an entity of its own controlling us but it's all an illusion,, feelings and sensations too so watch what you feed it
@Grm2 Ok thank you. It just feels so real like I'm actually attracted to guys even tho for my 20 years of life that's never been the case
@Anonymous Yes I know that feeling you got to be strong and loyal to your true self
@Grm2 So I'm not gay it's just ocd? Because OCD pops out of nowhere being gay does not
@Anonymous You know the answer to that asking it's just reassurance, trust yourself
I’ve had hocd for around 11 months now. It’s gotten to the point where I’m just convinced that I am bi. I still like boys like I always have, but I feel like I like girls too. I have no anxiety either or active thoughts. It’s just kinda there like yep I’m bi and ok with it. Anyone else? Just curious.
i'm positive i was attracted to women before this got a thought when i was high thought really really deeply into and changed my life now im 24/7 scared im gay ive always been attracted to girls but early in my sexual life where im at ive always got with girls and seemed a little disapointed after would love help and to hear past experiences
I feel like I'm lying to myself, like I just don't accept that I'm gay, I don't want to be gay, I don't want to feel any kind of attraction anymore, I want to go to a psychologist to find out if I really have hocd or if it's just an excuse, because it feels like I really am gay, but nothing was authentic, it all started with thoughts that made me panic extremely hard and I felt like crying and I had delusions, I don't understand why this is happening to me, I didn't like any boys before the thoughts appeared, but exactly one day after they appeared, all the boys were attractive, of all ages, I want to recover :( I'm only 17 years old, for about 2 months I've been having thoughts, I don't know what to do, I can't go to a psychologist, I need help :(
