Okay so I’ve been dealing with HOCD for a while now I’m having trouble atm because like a few years ago I went to a cheerleading Comp and o saw this girl and I thought she was pretty and o wanted to look like her so I went to cheer gym she went too but I just wanted to be freinds and now my brain is trying to dig up memories that say I wanted to be in a relationship with her and it’s stressing me out I’m also getting like false emotions like even writing this I felt like fake happy feeling followed by anxiety and I just don’t know what to do I don’t want to be bi or lesbian

@cloudqueen So recently I remembered how I really thought one of my friends was super pretty and wanted to be friends with her and show off infornt of her. I remember being jealous of her looks as young kid. After developing HOCD I remembered these moments and now my brain's telling me that these were some early signs I was lesbian and it's distressing me. Same with some other female friends

@sanziday I’m also freaking out because I would stalk this girl on social media and I’m scared it. Was a crush now I feel like it was a crush and like I’m fine with it it just makes me anxious

@cloudqueen I still remember the most exciting moment as young child was when I hugged a boy in kindergarten and in 2nd grade when my bestfriend (boy) who was also my crush at that time had complimented my hair but now my brain says something else....

@cloudqueen I mostly doubt it was a crush because like I said, similar things have happened to me and I never thought about a girl in that way. I still find it quite disturbing that I could think of someone like that...

@sanziday No It’s like giving me false excitement feelings is that normal for ocd

@cloudqueen Again another thing I've read on a lot of websites is that most lesbians or gay people actually enjoy these kinds of secual thoughts and desire them to come true, but when you say you're scared I think it's HOCD. You're don't show signs of being a lesbian.

@cloudqueen OCD is a freaking monster. It just creates this false attraction to people and happiness, and you can't even tell the difference between whether you're really having HOCD or just in denial. But I don't think none of us really like girls and these are just false memories

@cloudqueen Since you're on medication it might be a bit different for you but I can't even communicate with a therapist or psychologist where I live. People think it's going to make you ACTUALLY I'll when you're just trying to get help about your condition. So it's very stressful for me....

@cloudqueen No most of them can't even think of boys sexually while girls with HOCD have always liked boys. Lesbians can't even think of a male genital without gagging, at least that's what I've heard and seen on websites

@cloudqueen Some people actually do get over it and still have anxiety about and I particularly think yes, it is quite normal. Since you're also on medication that could also be affecting your mind so I guess you're just kind of numb to these feelings

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.

Hi all, I deal with HOCD and been seeing a therapist for about 3.5 months. It has definitely got better but still affects me very much. Was wondering there is anyone out there who has dealt with HOCD as well and has recovered. I would love to message or even chat just see how your experience was and hear what was beneficial to you.
