The difference between struggling to accept the fact that he was gay was says that he was probably thinking about him being gay and liking men for his entire life, as gay people are born gay, they don't turn that way. People with HOCD on the other hand, don't typically question this since forever, as obssessions often do, they come on randomly, and they might go away randomly as well. I would advise you to not go into those forums and searching online, as it is a compulsion and its setting you back
Number one thing not to do is search on Google. If you are going to be doing any research go to safe places online, there is a blog on tumblr called pure-o-Soft, I really recommend it, you can send asks about anything you're feeling and they send you trustworthy articles on OCD Do Not check groinal response, think about it, if you fixate on concentrating on any part of your body you will feel something, so don't do it. Do not try and check whether or not you find men attractive, as you will get more obssessed about it and start with the vicious circle again
Well then he Most likely was one of those people that think OCD not as a mental illness, and was struggling with accepting himself instead
But what if im like him
Im really very scared
But what's the different between those?
I don't know I was really scared so I just closed it and had a panic attack
I thought I would make friends with people suffering from hocd and talk to them personally but no one is even responding to me and I am doing all these research instead can anyone please help me?
I don't know
I’m so afraid I might be lesbian. I was very anxious at first but it started to calm down. I’m only 15 and I have a boyfriend I love. At least I think I do, I always chose to question everything and over analyze. I found out about hocd and it described everything I was feeling. I’d take test and read articles like “am I lesbian” but I have never fantasied a girl or wanted to be with a girl sexually or romantically. But what if I’m in denial? I do think girls are physically attractive but I never crushed on a girl. I have always crushed on boys. And liked being with them. I’m just so lost. My anxiety about it had calmed down. But the question is still there sometimes. Earlier today, I found a girl pretty and I got scared thinking that meant something. Then I read about women who have married men, but they know they’re lesbian. I’m scared that that’ll Happen to me. I don’t want to be lesbian. No disrespect. But I just want to be happy. I think I’ve suffered from ocd before. Tell me anyone if I’m wrong. But I used to have thoughts of that my boyfriend would murder me in the future because of theses videos that triggered me. It caused me so much pain and felt so real. That I eventually started to think I’d murder my mom and sister for no reason. I felt so helpless. But I got through it. I hope I get through this. Please any advice? Is this hocd?? Does anyone else feel this way?
I know people that have had hocd on this app that turned out to be their fear or bisexual. And I am deeply scared. Or am I? It feels as if I am pansexual, with a preference for girls now. And it feels fucking real.
I’m really freaking out right now. I keep reading things. I keep getting scared and panicking myself. I’m sweating like crazy right now. Idk if I’m actually lesbian or it’s ocd. I keep reading things and people answer with there’s no such this as hocd and stuff. And how someone had ocd and thought they were bi but officially said they were gay. I’m so scared rn.
