Look I’m struggling with HOCD as well and you know what I feel better accepting that it’s there rather than fighting. Trust me on this you won’t become what you fear, I had all those symptoms you listed above and you know what I’ve stop caring. The more importance you put on the thoughts the stronger it gets. What you need to do is let the thoughts in and not fight them (I’m still learning this) they will have less power over you and you will overcome it. I had this shit 7 years ago and it went away, I relapsed but it’s slowly fading. Don’t waste anymore of your life worrying over what if’s, live your life and fuck ocd. OCD is a bully regardless of the theme, it will make you think things that don’t reflect you as a person. Starve the beast and don’t fuel it with unnecessary worries, that means no visiting forums (ie: Empty closets) or even gay pornography for that matter. Excessive worry or testing won’t make it better only worse. Learn to live with the uncertainty

If feel exactly the same, never ever had attraction for guys, please noooo. But OCD is so strong it's super weird. If I would be really gay I would feel pleasure thinking of guys right? Guess what, I don't, I'm disgraced about myself and I don't even dare to watch porn anymore because it scares me. I have a huge crush on a girl from my university, she keeps my head above the water and when I think about her I get this warm and cosy feeling. OCD is so weird and it tears you apart. Fuck this shit

hi i’m a lesbian! and i have known im a lesbian for a really long time and i have a sweet girlfriend of 1 year. it all started when i saw this masc lesbian come out as straight, after that i had my guy friend over and he’s a sweet guy and he was flirting with me (he didn’t know i was gay) im not sure but i panicked and my brain froze and i was like “do i like him”, ever since my brain has been over worked 24/7 for 2 months now and it’s spiralling constantly. im trying to control it but all these thoughts are so disgusting and my brain tries to put him and i in scenarios that make me uncomfortable and i feel panic and i hate it. i have always been comfortable being a lesbian and i still am comfortable as a lesbian, but i dislike these thoughts i have about him and men and i want it to be over. i do not want to experiment with men even tho my brain is telling me i do, i find it disgusting and i dread it, i have a sweet girlfriend and i want to be with her forever, i do not imagine anything with any men and i hate these thoughts. im scared of becoming bisexual/straight one day and i hate hearing sexuality is fluid. its a whole mix of comphet and so-ocd

Hi everyone, I’ve been really anxious lately, and I just need to get this out of my head. Someone recently told me that maybe I’m bisexual — that I might be more sexually attracted to women, but more romantically attracted to men. That bisexuality is not 50/50. And ever since I heard that, I’ve been spiraling. The thing is: I don’t want this to be true. It scares me. I don’t feel romantic attraction to women, I’ve never wanted to be in a relationship with one. But yes, I get aroused by fantasies involving women — and that makes me feel broken or like I’ve been lying to myself. I love my boyfriend deeply, I don’t want to lose him. I want to feel fully connected to him, physically and emotionally. But now I’m stuck in this obsessive loop of questioning: “What if I’m just in denial?” “What if I’m not really straight?” “What if this is why my libido is low?” It’s exhausting, and I don’t know if this is OCD, anxiety, or if something is fundamentally wrong. Has anyone else felt this split — romantic feelings for one gender, sexual feelings for another? I feel so alone and scared. Thanks for listening.

A while ago, maybe a month and a half, I started getting thoughts that I am gay and in denial. I have no desire to be with a man and NEVER have, but it feels like I am a liar and I am really gay. It is hard to get out of my head, and I just want to say to anyone struggling with this, you are not alone. I have a hard time feeling like my attraction to women is genuine nowadays and I say to myself “What if I end up dating a guy?” And I get non stop thoughts and a groinal response as well. I also have gender dysphoria on top of that so it’s hard to imagine myself with a woman even though in the past I wanted it, but now I feel like I don’t, and eventually I’m gonna just date a guy. I get these compulsions to try things out with a guy and see if I like it but I don’t think I will act on it. I have had no hope and feel like I am genuinely gay now. I hope that I can recover.
