I’m like this with a close girl friend of mine. I’m afraid I’ll fall in love with the same sex and she’s the closest same sex friend.

You have to be okay with having no answer to whether it’s true or not. That’s how you get rid of the fear forever , and also letting yourself be uncomfortable and anxious without constantly resisting against the anxiety. You’ll be good bro , relapses happen sadly and you have to be okay with the possibility of them happening. But the thing is , a relapse can only happen if you perceive your fear as something to be feared. You gotta change that mindset

I’m kinda going through this with some of my girlfriends. It could be HOCD, or it could also mean that you’re developing feelings (no reassurance here, just accepting uncertainty). But don’t spend time trying to either give yourself reasons why you like him, or why you don’t like him. Like the name popping up in your head hit home. Just say “hey x” or “so what” and keep it pushing (easier said than done). Although it doesn’t feel like it, the truth will reveal itself eventually. Until then, you’ll be okay either way.

hocd
straight girl suffering from hocd, okay so when i was younger i looked at like a girl corn star insta for like 2 weeks and like did get aroused by it, didn’t think much of it still fancied boys, girls were like ew no to me, but its triggering my hocd so badly, like is it normal that i could look at a sexy pic of a girl n get aroused by it, but like a shirtless pic of a boy i wouldn’t, however i have insane attraction to men irl, i love my boyfriend, i love the idea of being with a man and hate the idea of being with a woman, this really freaking me out!

so-ocd seems to be flaring up again
I haven’t posted on here in a few days because I was feeling better but the past two days I’ve climbed my way back down the rabbit hole it seems. There’s this guy that I’m interested in and he seems to be interested in me. He keeps calling me pretty and how he’d like to meet me (he’s friends with my friends but I haven’t met him properly yet lmao) But I keep getting thoughts like “you’re not interested, you like women” and so on. I was feeling giddy about the whole thing up until two days ago where everything just seemed to shut off like my attraction, excitement and so on. I can’t believe I’m going through this again and I’m really trying to accept the thoughts but it’s so debilitating as I really want a bf but my brain keeps passing through thoughts that I do not want at all. Does anyone relate? Or have any coping strategies to help?

hocd
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.
