In order for the anxiety to stop you gotta stop doing the compulsions , they only give you temporary relief until you have another question or doubt. You’ll completely get over HOCD once you get under the fear of being gay and expose it for what it is , something unimportant to the quality of your life. Tell yourself that if you were gay , you could learn to accept yourself even if it came with some work. Tell yourself you would be willing to accept it and work towards happiness. Rooting for you

And btw , groinal responses don’t mean shit man. There’s no point in checking if you have one , especially because checking for one usually causes it.

True,i get groinal responses that have nothing to do with sex,like i get one when i pet-hug my dog because love makes me hard idk why nothing sexual,also when i had hocd i got hard looking at men why? because when you have ocd it creates symptoms idk how,now i don't have hocd and i never get hard at any man like i only got hard while having hocd it ain't random dude don't try to test yourself not only it's a compulsion but ocd is gonna sabotage you by giving you groin responses exactly when you don't want to have one

I got a new ocd theme that is so much more serious than hocd that hocd seems like a joke now and ill never get it as my current theme is so brutal that all i want is to survive, worrying about being gay is just insignificant to me after this,not saying it isn't serious for other but that's my perspective

I didn't as i said i got a new theme while having hocd and after my new theme hocd disappeared because it's not important now and i don't think I'll get it again as my new theme made me realize how insignificant hocd was,like id happily trade my current theme for hocd

Existamental ocd, basically i have this intense doubt about the nature of reality like i question whether it's like i thought it was or if it's a dream and everyone isn't real but imagined,like right now im not sure if you are like me self conscious human or just a part of my dream

I got this on accident after learning about solipsism which states that you can't prove that anything exists other than you

Starboiklem... the "getting hard to guys" while under hocd happened to me like 9 years ago. And yes, it stopped happening when I stopped fearing it. It was like just by recognizing "aesthetical beauty" was enough to give me an erection when I was obsessed with it. Did it happened to you? How did you handle it?

Ok I have a question for y’all. After you have a good moment with a guy, like when you think about him and want to be with him and it feels good, does anyone get the intrusive thought “what if I’m romantically attracted to men but sexually attracted to women?” Because that just came up for me and it is not fun and very worrying. Because I have been aroused by lesbian porn (I did this before my HOCD intrusive thoughts started) and now I’m worried because I was aroused by that I can only be sexually attracted to women ?

I can’t deal with my groinal responses... they feel to real. I got a semi, maybe even full erection to same sex pornography. It must mean something I’m very depressed

Help needed!!😩
Lately I've been having a lot of groinal responses, don't want them to be there. Before any of this even happened to me, I don't think I ever had a groinal response looking at another man, it makes me convinced that I've always been gay. I don't wanna be gay. This morning I had a dream about a rapper, it wasn't sexual but for some reason I was hard? I have always been a fan of his music and that's it. Now that's fueling my thought process even more and convincing me that I'm gay and I've been in the closet for a while At the same time i keep crying looking at my ex cause i miss her so much. Another thing to note that whenever i see good looking men or men that are gay i get groinal responses, whereas before this I don't think any of this happened to me. Whenever i look at these men i have to actively take a few deep breath's to catch up my breath, i can feel my heart beating. And most of the times I'm not even thinking anything sexual when ilook at these men it's weird. None of this brings me happiness at all. At this point I'm scared of my own groin cause i don't know what to expect or what's gonna happen. My brain keeps going you're in denial I've always been into women, as far as i can remember, I've lost complete attraction to them especially after my break up and getting depressed and having anxiety. And i keep thinking find a man attractive and if i get a groinal response, " wanna have sex with him" where as before any of this happened to me, these thoughts never even came to my mind, my 22 years of life feels like a complete lie and i hate myself, I've lost all motivation to do Normal things, i feel sleepy, i don't feel confident, loss of attraction, loss of libido, loss of will power, my thoughts keep morphing from " you might be gay" to "you are gay" to "you're bi" to "you're gay" to " you're in the closest" to "how are you gonna come out?". None of these thoughts make me happy, it makes me more confused and scared and kinda uncomfortable, and weirded out too. Another thing i did was since December till March i watched gay porn and barely got aroused and didn't really find it all that hot.? But my brain ignores that i understand now that it was a compulsive thing that's why i stopped but now i get so many groinals it's so weird Can someone tell me what's going on with me? Please please please someone take the time out of their day to read this and respond, thank you! 😩😩😩
