If my fear was true
Does anyone else think that they would just never act on it if turned out to not be OCD? Because I feel like that would be me. I just don't want it even if the ocd makes me feel like I do.

Same I feel the exact same way. This is not the lifestyle I want even though my brain is telling me something else
It would be me, and at the same time I am tormented by the fact of losing access to my preference, the thought of not being able to live a life keeps me depressed. And although I know that I would not act, I still have anxiety about ending up acting under an impulse, don't you feel that there is also a kind of pressure from society in that aspect? If you comment on what is happening to you, they would call you that you are in the closet or that you should experiment... Hey, I don't want to experience anything, thank you
That's true I don't want to experience anything
Same! And then I’ll say to myself something like “are you seriously not going to try it if this is what you really want” so yikes
Yea me too. For me like, I get scared of the thought that i’ll have the urge to do something or if someone asked me what my orientation was, i’m scared i’ll say something i don’t want to say because of my ocd. Like Im just in my head so much everything feels awful. Recently i’ve been on dating apps and they ask for your orientation and I always put straight but because i’m so freaking scared that i’ll accidentally or impulsively put gay, I get so anxious and it’s like a never ending cycle. I have to always check 10000x that it’s not gay and then because i’m constantly checking, my ocd tells me it’s because I really wanna put that 😒 this just sucks man
I’m 25 and never ever thought this before my soocd relapse. I have a bf of 5 years. Never been a high libido kinda girl. Don’t get me wrong I do get turned on by my bf but not like every day you know? - That had always been in the back of my head, is this normal and ok? But my ocd has latched onto the most scariest what if EVER. My brain is now saying How do you know you won’t prefer to sleep and kiss girls if you haven’t tried it: and it’s that unknown that is scaring the shit out of me. I DONT AND NEVER HAVE wanted to sleep / kiss a girl. But now my intrusive thoughts is all I think about!!! I don’t want I don’t want I don’t want??? So why does my brain think BUT WHAT IF??? I know ocd thrives off uncertainty which is why I think this is happening? But I don’t wanna find out or work it out because all I want is to be with my bf and marry him!! Is this just the epitome of OCD?
Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.
Cause I don't have those Extreme cases where I Need to wash myself 100 times, or check things like light, all I have are my thoughts.
