It’ll make you doubt you were ever straight and doubt your current actions. So yes it does, it’ll make it feel like you’re lying to yourself

@JohnKit We unfortunately have this doubt disease, I beat this before now it’s back. I promise you I almost ended a 5 year relationship because of it. Soon your senses start to come back and you’ll find yourself again, my life was horrible for 2 months then it went back to normal almost like nothing happened. I still enjoyed straight sex as much as I did before my ocd started. It gets better keep fighting through it

@JohnKit Yeah it sucks so bad, if you don’t mind me asking how old are you? I’m 20 and dealing with it now makes it pretty hard to have a sex like I guess I wished for ? But I have low self esteem and confidence and this ocd makes it 10x worse

@JohnKit Yeah man it’s awful, I went through this when I was 18 and I swore on everything I changed, eventually my sex drive came back and me and the girl I was with had great sex regularly. Now she dumped me after 6 years lol now after a stressful situation I’m back in the same place and slowly but surely I’m getting back, trust me this gets better man. It feels like the end of the world and it feels like this is who you are and therapy will help 100%

@JohnKit Ocd can mess up sex drive, also diminished attraction towards desired sex is a big thing too In this theme

@JohnKit Only way to stop it is to recognize what it does and what it is (ocd) and realize that this disorder will make you doubt your whole life and everything that you value as a person and make it feel like it’s coming true!

I’ve been struggling with HOCD for years, and it started with an intrusive thought about being gay when I was younger. It came up at age 12 and ever since, I’ve been trapped in a cycle of doubt and anxiety. I obsess over whether or not I’m secretly gay, even though I don’t feel that way at all. What makes it worse is the fear that I might have internalized homophobia, and that’s why I’m having these obsessive thoughts. I worry that my anxiety is a sign that I’m repressing something or rejecting part of myself. It feels like my mind keeps repeating the same question—am I gay?—and no matter how much reassurance I get, the fear doesn’t go away. I used to pray for my family members, fearing that if I didn’t, something bad would happen to them, and now it feels like I have to control these thoughts, or something will go wrong. For a while, it was quieter, but a week ago, the thoughts spiraled up again, and now the anxiety feels overwhelming again. It’s exhausting, and I don’t know how to break free from this constant loop of doubt. Has anyone dealt with the fear of internalized homophobia alongside HOCD? How do you manage the anxiety that comes with it?

Can hocd create mental feelings or things that resemble inclinations Without a physical response?, but such as arousal and mental attraction, for example, I have so ocd and I'm afraid that I might like women.So, in the last period, when I look at photos of girls, especially beautiful ones, I feel something strange or attracted,sometimes their bodies.And I'm confused as to what that might mean, it's like sexual orientation, is this from me or OCD produced by it?'The feeling is like the feeling of discovering new inclinations and this breaks me, I just want to reconcile with myself in any sexual orientation or identity, but I just can't feel comfortable and reconcile with the fact that I may like women or it may happen in the future.And I have these feelings that telling me messing around the girls would be fun, and I feel something like desire, but I never come to terms with this.. I'm going to be 15 years old, I know, I'm not supposed to think like that, I don't have the right to determine who I am now because im young, and I shouldn't continue to dream of marrying a man..My mind keeps reminding me of the fact that I'm a teenager and the likelihood that everything will change is high, but right now, I'm not asking for anything but rest.I want to love myself and reconcile with her.
