how do I know what I felt wasn't genuine attraction but false attraction? I can't keep living like this.

If you are disgusted by the thought of being attracted to whatever your OCD is conjuring attraction to, then you and your personality are not attracted to it. From what i’ve researched on OCD, your mind may conjure up “situations” to test your biggest fears. There is no winning the test; either way you will not find relief. I suggest you work with a therapist on revealing your worries to confront your OCD and build coping mechanisms that dissipate your anxieties. You are NOT what your OCD is trying to convince you that you are. Your false attraction is built upon fear of being attracted to the subject, so it is contradictory to your morals. You are not a bad person and healing is not avoiding your fears it is confronting them as false. You can do this, your life is valuable and you are worthy of being understood.
why do i feel like im starting to like the false attraction? i don’t want to liek it and it normal makes me feel disgusting but sometimes i feel like i like it. please help
Can anyone give their experience on FALSE ATTRACTION? At this moment, mine has become worse. Soon as I see a male my anxiety shoots up, I can feel this in my chest and my OCD is telling me I’m attracted. But I continue to look back or stare and the disgust comes over me and my body shakes and I feel my face screw up. I can’t listen to music I use too or watch movies which was a favourite thing of mine to do. I just feel disgusted and not who I am when it happens. It’s like a different me. P.S. I had a very good week few days ago where I knew this wasn’t me and these feelings/ thoughts isn’t me.
actual attrcation. i’ve decided im gonna just let the false attraction happen, not try to stop it or question it. is it wrong for this erp to juts when i watch a video and get a false attraction just experience the false feelings and scroll? because i feel like the longer i sit with it the longer i begin to question whether its real or not.
