How do you do therapy here I wanna recover from hocd

Hey thanks but I’m scared I might be jealous if a girl likes another girl, I hate myself for thinking like this. I asked myself the worst case scenario and my brain went “would you be jealous if a girl likes another girl?” I hope this is hocd cause I don’t want to be gay. People told me this is being protective, but no one with hocd thinks like this

@GummyDrop You may not have heard anyone dealing with that fear , but trust me people have. But you have to accept uncertainty and I know it sucks to hear that but in the long run it will help you !!

@xiiiandreww Waittt.... people are like me with hocd and are scared that they might be jealous if someone from the same sex might like another person of the same sex? Ive been asking people that no one said they have experienced that

@xiiiandreww Do you also have insta? I wanna talk to you there

@GummyDrop I know someone that has worried about that so yeah totally ?? and my Instagram is xiiiandreww ! :)

@xiiiandreww I wish I didn’t think about that cause now my Brian focus on that and It kinda affects my school social. I want to recover from hocd now

@GummyDrop You have to sit with the way you feel and the uncertainty that you deal with so your brain doesn’t react as intensely!

@xiiiandreww I want to switch brains with someone else 1 in 100 children has ocd I’m the one

@xiiiandreww Ill add you on insta later can you talk to a therapy here

@GummyDrop I totally understand that feeling , but telling yourself that only makes it worse because it tells the fear that is getting to you , and for that reason , it doesn’t bring you towards recovery. It’s good to acknowledge how you feel , but try saying to yourself that if you had another fear or problem in your life , you may say the same thing. OCD is horrible , but think of it this way. If you’re the one person out of 100 that has OCD , your the one person who understands the OCD community the best , you may have the most compassion , and you’ll have the most knowledge in certain areas that they couldn’t have unless they had OCD

@GummyDrop Okay no problem :) and I’m not sure if you can tbh

@xiiiandreww When I overcome ocd I think I’ll be stronger than everyone else cause ocd made me at my lowest point but overcoming it makes me at my greatest point

@GummyDrop Even though Ocd is at its worst already, there’s some benefits of having ocd , if life throws me another problem it’ll be easier to handle it than those who don’t have ocd.

@GummyDrop That’s an amazing perspective to have on it and I have no doubt that you will overcome it ???

@GummyDrop Exactly that !!! Always think the way you’re thinking right now. The positives are less obvious than the negative ones but they are real and powerful

@xiiiandreww Yeah thanks, cause you’ve already suffered a lot from ocd and you’re already used to the worst
