Part of ocd... Is thinking it's probably not ocd. Hang in there. You've made progress with the fact that you've met with a therapist and got diagnosed.

Uh I feel like I lie to myself as well so much. But if I was actually lesbian I wouldn’t have these feelings for boys before. I know it was real, I can’t be lesbian. I get sexually aroused with men. But I’m learning to be okay if I am. And most of the time it makes me feel better because I know where my real attraction is. It’s just you ocd. Getting a therapist to say you just have hocd, will make you feel like they’re lying. Or that youre lying, and they’re saying it to make you feel better. It’s a crap feeling. I hope you recover from this painful ocd! I wish you luck!

Lately I’ve been accepting it. “Maybe I am lesbian but who cares?” Then I have my panic moments when I see a girl and I say “wait I think she’s pretty, or why did I just look at her” and then I say “oh yeah cause I’m lesbian” but honestly. In my head I’m just like “no you’re not” and it honestly decreases my anxiety I know I’m not lesbian. I’m trying to accept that I could find the same sex attractive or just accept that I’m looking at them. I don’t wanna dig deeper because there is no deeper meaning. I know I only wanna be with the opposite sex. I’m happy with them. You’ll be okay, it’s just ocd.

I don’t know what to do anymore, this started nearly a year ago and caused so much stress and panic attacks over the thought of loosing my boyfriend. Now it just feels real and that he always liked girls and suppressed it (but like the boys i always liked in the past were real feelings they had to be and with my boyfriend i love him) but i haven’t got much anxiety now feels like i want the thoughts and that they don’t bother me even tho they used to, this seems to happen every time i get a lil better, idk just feels so true and that’s what i acc want with no stress, just a lil scared.

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 :(
