Soocd has ruined me, now I’m avoiding friends
Anytime a see an image of my best friend I feel a moment down there or I feel huge or I feel like I’m about to get a boner please why is this so, it makes me feel lost.

Maybe your attracted to your friend? 🤷♂️ it happens but remember it means absolutely nothing unless you act on it. Thoughts have zero power and energy unless we assign them so with our actions.
I totally get this! Trust me isolation is NOT the answer. Be surrounded by your friends, plus it’s good exposure and you’ll eventually habituate to it! I admit that women are attractive and I think they’re beautiful, but that doesn’t have to mean anything about my sexual preferences. Or maybe it does? Who knows! But I don’t care because it’s impossible to have a definitive answer when sexuality is not black and white!
Worst thing you can do is avoid your friends bro, its just you being scared of being gay, whats so wrong with it? Once you figure out and become more firm on your sexuality, you can admit that everyone is attractive.
@teeejay I don’t find him attractive, whenever I see his picture I feel scared that I will have a movement down there and when I check I see it moving 😔 I don’t like that movement
@tuchi Well groin response really means nothing, you can get an erection just from sitting there thinking about nothing, i really urge you to just be open to everything, you might be suprised, also if you want me to be real. The fact that you dont like the movement is a dead giveaway
It’s just OCD! Ignore it and it’ll go away eventually
I feel like everyone "healed" from their SOOCD and yet 6 years later I'm still here. All the people who used to post on here have moved on (and good for them) but im still here. Even when im having sex with my bf I'm like "am I enjoying it because Im enjoying the act of sex itself + the fact that Im used to him by now but with women its way more exciting and its about the women itself?". Ugh I just feel so alone, no one relates to me romantically nor physically.
I'm so afraid of thinking something inappropriate around family and friends that I overthink everything I think. I've been dealing with this for months and I thought I had learned how to deal with it, but I feel so suffocated. Right now I really can't breathe. I don't know what to do, I talk to people in this community but I still feel so alone.
SOOCD sufferers! Do you sometimes worry that you're true attraction is your false attraction and vice versa? and that you actually dont really know what true attraction is but if you go with the unwated sex you will know? Ima actually really struggeling between finding someone attractive and being attracted to someone.... I'm a straight female (I think) and I recognise a beautiful women more than a handsome men. Like I wasnt really attracted to my bf's body before actually being with him. However since in my mind, the female body has "more" if feels like I'll feel more if Im with a women? ughh soo weird. Like I dont see a men's naked body and automaticcaly get turned on, I have to be intimate with him for that to happen? honetsly between that and the romantic feelings that I feel like are not "enough" it really sounds like denial even if my therapist really diagnosed me. UGH
