I’m getting really scared that this is just real now, I don’t have anxiety anymore. Like mom just the fact that my mind is constantly thinking and having false attractions and false feelings. Idk what to think?!

A lot of people don’t buy into it. At some point, I didn’t either. Questioning is healthy, but it’s unhealthy when it becomes overbearing and obsessive (although some people become obsessed while questioning). People also think that this particular theme only involves straight people who are afraid of “becoming” gay or any other orientation. That’s not the case, gay people or anyone of any sexual orientation can go through this as well (That’s why a better term for it is Sexual Orientation OCD). The problem isn’t the person’s sexuality, but the fear of being deceptive to themselves or not living a truthful life. I’m not typing this so I can make a fight with you out of this, but just for you to gain better understanding because it is often misunderstood.

@Esosa I appreciate the insight. I didn’t understand this at all and don’t know why I’m even seeing the threads. I don’t take this as you fighting with me.

@Dominick Oh okay :) thanks for taking the time to understand

And nobody asked what you buy into , the condition is a real one whether or not you “ buy into it “. Bruh move around

I would normally be more respectful with my response , and I don’t doubt that you have good intentions , but when someone is literally struggling right now and makes it known , you don’t make such an insensitive comment like that. You have no idea how hard it is. Hope you’re doing well though. Be more careful next time please.

Uhm just for the future, you really shouldn’t say that to someone who is dealing with this. If you don’t buy into it, just stay out of it. Keep your comments to yourself please.

@advice? I don’t understand why this app was showing me hocd content. I must of clicked on it. I have never heard of someone having hocd. I’m sorry for my ignorance

@Dominick It’s okay, I’m sorry if I came off rude. But hocd is like any other type of a “ “pure o” ocd. It’s doubting yourself and what you believe in.

@Dominick Your ignorance isn’t an excuse to tell someone it’s okay if they’re gay as if their fear automatically means they are. If you don’t know enough about HOCD , then there’s no need to comment on it. I don’t mean to get on you and be disrespectful , but comments like that can really put someone in a bad place. I don’t think you had bad intentions but try to stay off these forums , what you said was honestly offensive. Have a good night/day

@xiiiandreww Thank you for this, it honestly put me in a bad place. I broke down and cried. Thank you

@advice? I’m so sorry. ❤️ Yeah his comment infuriated me. I hope you’re feeling better now!! :(

@xiiiandreww I am thank you !

@xiiiandreww I unfollowed.

@Dominick Unfollowed what

@Dominick Again I’m not trying to get to you or upset you or anything. I was just personally taken back by what you said.

@xiiiandreww I was taken back. I’ve never heard of hocd. I don’t know how it was viewable to me. I’ve since unfollowed this topic as it was triggering to me... Thus I responded. I apologized and will never comment again

@Dominick I had no clue it triggered you , if that’s the case then it’s good you unfollowed so you aren’t triggered again. No hard feelings on my end man , I was a little harsh I’ll admit. I mean you’re free to comment anywhere as long as you know what you’re talking about

Hi, I have a Snapchat if that’s okay?

I think i added you
