Ok this is what would be called a testing compulsion. It’s NOT going to get you anywhere and will only make you question more. I don’t know if this will help but do keep in mind that when you’re masturbating, eventually no matter what you’re thinking you’re going to end up having an orgasm. That’s just how it works. You could think of a tree while doing it and eventually you would end up ejaculating. Doesn’t necessarily prove anything especially if you’re trying to “test” yourself. And especially with OCD, I guarantee you nothing is going to be a satisfying answer when you do this.

Been there done that. HOCD made you force yourself to have the ejaculation and you couldn't control your intrusive thoughts and urges. I think we need to lay off Google for a while and just stay in this app for now, it really is our worst enemy ?

Okay, first of all - the guy who said that in the video was wrong. Like, he was just incorrect. That "imagining" thing is a really common compulsion, which will make you more anxious in the long run. Intrusive thoughts can't just be solved like that! Even though you do say you were "struggling," you are still doubting and worrying now aren't you?? Because you've just done a common compulsion, which has obviously increased long term anxiety. It didn't solve anything did it? Please don't fall down the internet rabbit hole... ? And also don't take ANY video advice seriously unless it is from a professional. It's often a bit risky ? OCD is a nightmare, and you will almost certainly need more than just a video to help you. I've had it for years, and compulsions don't help..!

I’m sharing this bc I need advice or even support from anyone who can relate. If you can’t relate and don’t think you’ll say anything helpful or kind pls don’t comment anything… I’ve been struggling with somethings that’s making me question myself. There has been moments while self pleasuring when I get intrusive thoughts, in those moments it feels like I’m enjoying or even self pleasuring myself bc of the thought. Right after I immediately have an anxiety attack and my HEART drops bc it feels terrible I feel like a disgusting monster :( ppl have told me I haven’t done a bad bc of how intense my guilt and panic are but I keep thinking that MAYBE I made a horrible decision in the moment and the guilt is just realising that it’s just wrong this doesn’t make sense to me because I’ve always told myself that I would never act on this in 1 million years and I’ve been known that these things are wrong so I’m just like constantly questioning myself these feelings and exact same situation has happened two times already I even promised myself that I wouldn’t act on anything beforehand and yeah, I still felt like I did act on my thought during my alone time I’m genuinely convinced that I’m a horrible and it’s even got into the point where I don’t wanna be here anymore and I don’t even think this is my OCD :( tbh

Sorry long post. Anyone feel like now they’re just in extreme denial. Like when I was little I noticed guys more than girls in movies and was more drawn to them. I remember changing my mindset to switch that. 98%of my life has been straight until recently. I felt drawn to some guys but never thought of it sexually. Always had girl crushes dreams and porn. Now I watch porn and I feel like straight takes longer and then I go and watch gay porn and feel nothing until I tell myself it’s two attractive dudes and love is love and imagine physical sensations and then it hits like suddenly. Like I have to convince myself it’s alright. Then when I try again I can do all that but feel nothing and then straight porn works. Idk if it’s just getting a fix or the first time works with anything or what but it’s confusing. On top of that I’ve felt girl relationships including my wife maybe miss something and a guy maybe matches that feeling that but then I feel like I’d be missing something without a girl or my wife. Idk I’ve had some rough times in life with male figures in my life but idk. I feel like I have to convince myself more and more that I’m straight even more than the first time I dealt with this. Can someone relate? Please

So I’ve talked to a couple of gay people and they all told me the same thing. They ALWAYS knew they liked guys and they have ever gotten aroused by a woman in their life. In fact they told me that they always found a woman’s body disgusting. Looking back in my life I’ve been attracted to girls for as long as I can remember even before puberty. All my fantasies were about girls and I can’t remember a time where I felt the same for a guy (because it never happened). At the end I can still get aroused by women and you can clearly see how much stupid this obsession about being gay is. Gay people can’t get instinctively aroused by a woman and like it. Groinal responses and sensations don’t mean anything because they simply do not bring joy or a feeling of desire. Instead they bring panic. I once got a groinal when “testing my reactions” and I was sitting there crying like my life is over. That’s not how genuine attraction works and no one has woken up one day feeling different and no one has been secretly gay and never noticed it and spent his whole life into women instead.
