Some people might have that experience, but for anyone with OCD, “finding your true self” is practically impossible because intrusive thoughts warp our perception of self whenever we try. That experience was OCD, plain and simple. But next time that happens, don’t waste your energy doing mental compulsions to try to “figure out” what those thoughts mean or why you’re having them. Simply say to yourself, “maybe that means I want to be with a guy, but maybe it’s just OCD, or maybe it’s something else entirely.” And let that uncertainty be your answer. Go no further to figure it out.

Like I used to drink alcohol on parties (not much but still) and now I cant even try a drop of alcohol cause I think that will expose “my true self”

Yeah I can understand why that would be upsetting. I was worried because I had my first intrusive thought about HOCD when I was high but then I realized weed had been making me depressed and anxious for awhile about other themes as well. In my case, drugs just make my OCD and anxiety worse, I’ve even felt suicidal, which I know these are not my true thoughts

I had a similar experience on lsd... which is horrible because sometimes people say u find yourself ect on that. But i had a thought that i was gay and it fucking scared me so bad that i changed the subject and tried not to think about it.... and when i was holding it in not trying to think about it... here i am a year later with the same feelings.... of just thinking about it all the time.... was i just high or was that the truth or was it just a simple thought that im afraid of

This is the exact reason I was always terrified to get my wisdom teeth out and why I never drink alcohol

It’s crazy because I’ve been afraid to take out my wisdom teeth since I first got the intrusive thought as well.

Help me need insight
When I smoke weed when I think of non ocd things or themes, my head starts to make sense of things I feel more open and I think clearer. So that’s where my big concern is!!! Because when I’m high and think of ocd things like being a killer, or someone who’s a sociopath or someone that can be a pedo it feels real like my mind is clearer that I am these things Any one who has experienced weed with ocd help me I need insight on this im very confused and it’s causing me to ruminate all day

hey guys, i am really struggling
hey guys, i am really really struggling and i feel like crying. evry day i get this feeling of sexual attraction to the same gender, and i get those feelings even just thinking about it now. i hste them and want them to go away but they simply won’t and it has me thinking that this is just how my life is gonna be like. when i was fully healed or atleast thought i was healed from the false attraction and soocd, i still sometimes got that attraction feeling, and i would force my body not to feel it. i hated it and was scared of liking it so i would like stop breathing and make it stop. it was only ever occasional but this is making me concerned now too, because i still sometimes felt that feeling when i was healed. now currently my main trigger is masculine girls, but when my soocd first started i had no false attraction or attraction like this towards girls, and it was all just in my mind like saying, “don’t look at that girl or you’re gay.” there was one point in my soocd where i was worried about being attracted to my friends, but i am greatful in the sense of i know that that is not true and my main issue is the false attraction watching videos and i have experienced it once in real life too and i hated it. please lmk what i should do or even if you can relate. i am sick of feeling th is way, and i am a christian too so this makes it harder. i’ve tried everything like accepting it, or trying to even say to myself yes u do like it but it always just leads to me being scared.

Triggered ?
Does anyone else read other peoples post and think it’s for them or about them and their situation and start to think that’s what they are going through themselves ? Or like I’m blaming ocd but it’s my brain actually telling that’s how I actually feel?
