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.

I feel absolutely horrible!!
I had same Sex fantasies, sought that out in 🌽 before I knew what sexuality was, it’s related to a specific fetish and I used to talk to strangers online including men and I’m scared now what all of this means, I have HOCD, POCD, all sorts of thoughts but I don’t know if it’s my thoughts or my past which is reality. Why did I have those thoughts as a young boy? Why why why? Who am I? Do I even have OCD? What monster am I? I just want to end it all sometimes in all honesty. Not really but sure feels like it. I’m dying inside .

Question about HOCD
Sorry long post. Anyone feel like now they’re just in extreme denial. Like when I was little I noticed guys more than girls in movies and was more drawn to them. I remember changing my mindset to switch that. 98%of my life has been straight until recently. I felt drawn to some guys but never thought of it sexually. Always had girl crushes dreams and porn. Now I watch porn and I feel like straight takes longer and then I go and watch gay porn and feel nothing until I tell myself it’s two attractive dudes and love is love and imagine physical sensations and then it hits like suddenly. Like I have to convince myself it’s alright. Then when I try again I can do all that but feel nothing and then straight porn works. Idk if it’s just getting a fix or the first time works with anything or what but it’s confusing. On top of that I’ve felt girl relationships including my wife maybe miss something and a guy maybe matches that feeling that but then I feel like I’d be missing something without a girl or my wife. Idk I’ve had some rough times in life with male figures in my life but idk. I feel like I have to convince myself more and more that I’m straight even more than the first time I dealt with this. Can someone relate? Please

HOCD question
Anyone else with HOCD get thoughts of like "people in denial try to distract themselves" or anything along those lines when just trying to move on from the thoughts. Having a pretty bad episode this morning at least anxiety wise.
