I don’t understand
I was so confident that I was straight 3 weeks ago and now all of a sudden it feels like I have become a lesbian! That doesn’t make any sense 😭

Look I totally understand, I was fine about 30 minutes ago and I read one word and it triggerd me into intrusive thoughts about being gay. Ik I'm not gay I have a girlfriend, and honestly I don't have feelings for men. But now my mind is obsessing over it and I feel so uncomfortable with these thoughts.

Big buzz word I saw there was “ feel”. Feelings aren’t facts. Also, if you think girls are pretty or attractive it’s cuz they are lol. It’s practically by design so we can attract mates for breeding. I’m straight and I think girls are pretty, even sexy. But my sexual preference is to men. Ocd is just sending you a fire alarm with no fire. Just say “ hmmm, me as a lesbian? Interesting ( or not interesting idea) “ and just carry on with your day. Just because you think or feel something doesn’t make it true.

@Beachgirl2024 Oh, the crying emoji threw me off lol then just enjoy it then. You’re basically just experiencing normal thoughts like everyone else and no emotional distress is fantastic! Sounds like what every therapy you are doing is working.
