Why???
Why has all my other OCD subtypes gone away but this one (SOOCD) stays around 24/7!? Does that mean that’s who I actually am?

It’s my only theme and that alone stresses me out. I’ve had fleeting moments of thoughts related to POCD that give me a lot of stress, but SOOCD has stuck the most consistently, which makes me think it’s real. It’s to the point now where imagining a future with a man is so hard, and I hate it.
This is exactly how I feel. I feel like I actually don’t have any other themes and I’m just bisexual, and if I accept I’m bisexual I’ll eventually accept being a lesbian.
That's how I feel. March of next year will be 2 years. But I didn't just randomly get the thoughts, I watched porn and had fantasies that didn't align with how I identify. Trust me though, I get it.
@2022💍 Mine is 10 years 😭
SAME GIRL
Same honestly like this doesn't just go, and the groinal it's the worst, allthough I remenber saying yesterday that the groinal wasn't a big deal and that false atraction was the worse lol
It’s because you care about it so much that you constantly are obsessing over SOCD, so it sticks around. You cannot interact with OCD in any way, or else you risk it becoming your main theme. ERP and mindfulness are key to getting better. Are you seeing a specialist?
It's hard not to care. Especially when it wasn't only just " thoughts" for some of us.
@Nica I was but then she let me go because she said I had other issues that I needed to take care of before I see an OCD specialist
