One thing that makes me feel bad is that I have less intrusive thoughts and less Anxiety but it’s still there and I lost my attraction for girls and my sex drive

@marcovibes I feel so lost but because I have less anxiety I trip I don’t know what this really means I just wish I could go back part of the reason why it’s so hard is that even when you happy you dont forget that you have Ocd

Recover. Whoever you attract will simply be a reflection of who you see yourself as in the inside. Like attracts like. Work to become the best version of yourself. Don't rush things because paradoxically it won't get you to where you want to be any quicker. Best thing is to let things flow and the right woman will come into your life when you're ready for her. Forcing things will feel unatural and as I percieve you're only fixing yourself to settle at this point. I've been single for 3 years now and am currently recovering from HOCD after a 3 month raging obsession. The Universe will give me the appropriate woman at the proper time. Remember that the Universe won't give you what you aren't ready to recieve. Best of luck!

@Mod22 That's the best you could've done for her, man. Very considerate of you. Hey, I love women as well. They're fucking amazing, thing is that you can't expect to have the type of relationship you want while your OCD is making you trip over your sexual orientation. You'll only be giving her part of the best man you could be for her. When my HOCD kicked in, I thought it was my heart telling me I had to go out find a girlfriend, but the more I seeked the more lost I felt. Now that I'm recovering I know I'm a step closer to getting the type of woman I really deserve. If I would've listened to my mind months ago, I probably wouldn't be where I'm at now. Give yourself some time off. Work on yourself. You deserve to be 100%.

Man, hours ago, when I had not already downloaded the app, I thougt I was a freak and I was the unique in this, now I read these kind of things and I know that I'm not. I'm passing through the same, doubting about my sexual orientation all the time, not feeling or feeling little for women and feeling things for man that makes me feel unpleasant and akward. So, I think you could read about EPR, expose yourself and that kind of things.

I’ve had so many moments of clarity with my OCD that I love my boyfriend and I’m beyond willing to go through this to be better and be with him. in the back of mind I’ve in a way known I was at least somewhat sexually attracted to women (I’m a woman) since the start of the ocd it was always like “okay. Fine, but I don’t want to date a girl” I only just realized this after the ocd started, I never really argued with this. my ocd has always revolved around if I’m romantically interested in women and not men. I’ve done so many compulsions through this year and a half and 9 times out of 10 have come to the conclusion that I don’t want to be with a woman romantically. I always end up feeling like I know I love my boyfriend. But the doubts don’t stop about whether I want to spend my life with a woman instead, my heart literally breaks to think of not being with my bf and imagining him with someone else. I don’t want to be with a woman I know deep down somewhere underneath the anxiety that that’s not what I want. It doesn’t feel natural for me, unfulfilling. I want to tell my boyfriend about the possible sexual attraction to women (ik it’s still ocd related) but I’m scared that once I tell him, I’ll realize that I actually do want to be with women and not with him. Ugh I’ve spent hours today ruminating about this after being solid in my commitment with him for a little while, I’m stuck in this loop and idk how to get out right now

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

I cant afford therapy which is why i’m not diagnosed with ocd. The first time i had heard what ocd was truly abt was 6 years ago when i overthinking my sexual identity and it fit. Additionally, i struggle with debilitating health anxiety and when i was in a rlt i was extremely anxious that i might not love my partner. This is the third year i experience distress around my sexuality but this year it feels real. And it could also explain my rlt anxiety. Comphet is a concept that really scares me. I dont want to be with a girl. I would rather die than discover i was lesbian. I cant accept uncertainty cz i dont want to be homosexual. Chat GPT told me it wasnt ocd + the thoughts dont distress me anymore. I experience 3 intense weeks of anxiety prior to now. Maybe its internalized homophobia. Maybe its comphet. I do find women to be attractive but i dont wanna be with them. Maybe i’m in denial. Idk anything anymore. I’m remembering times where i would find an actress attractive and try to shift my focus towards the man cz it would make me anxious. I’m not well at all.
