Hocd has ruined sex for me and I have not ever tried it :( my anxiety can not take it that what if I don’t like it. Also my hocd is saying I don’t find penis attractive anymore so I can not even fantasize about it because my head says I don’t like it so it’s feels I don’t like it :( with girls it’s feels nothing it’s annoying I don’t get anxious part but I don’t wanna do it in irl but it’s feels like I have to then because it’s almost feels like I want it :(

Yeah sex has been always bein sensitive for me because I mean maybe some it does not but it’s has been always scared me even I wanna do it. Need stop the compulsion I mean I can not always be turned in if I see dick or something. It’s just these groinal responses for girls and not feeling anxious even I want to make me question it more ?

@Asnku That happens to me!! But don't think it's real! It's all on your mind! So chill

But it’s almost feels I am not even attracted to act because my head says so :( it’s says vaginas are attractive but never in my life I did not felt that way

@Asnku Last year I reached a point where my hocd said the same but tbh I've always been grossed out by them. You don't have to fixate on what you feel while your obsessions are stronger but on what you felt when it wasn't. If you were attracted by penises before you still are now though your anxiety tells you otherwise

@notfortalk Yeah I just.. I hope it goes away because now it’s feels it’s never gonna end

@notfortalk I hope my anxiety about this goes away like I can't bear the thought of not enjoying sex wit ha guy:(

Same like I get piece in my throat because I am so anxious that I don’t enjoy it :( for girls it’s feels like I want it but I don’t or it does not feel anything :( my body is not like anxious when I wanted it to be

@Asnku I was actually looking at a girl today (she's my fav youtuber) and I just had a thought that what if I wanted her sexually and that was distressing me a lot :(. It still is but kmim ignoring

I ma really sorry i know that i need stop asking because reassurance is not good for long run :( do you have any tips what I could do if I am having these unwanted feelings that I am not attracted to boys anymore and not like ask questions again?

@Asnku Have you tried the SOS tools on the therapy portion of the app?

@NOCD Advocate - Katie You can also ask someone to have a conversation unrelated to OCD with you while you sit with the anxiety

@NOCD Advocate - Katie I like the ideas. I have not tried the sos tool because I am not sure really how to use it. I think the talking part would be nice because many times talking relax me

@Asnku So the goal isn't that the conversation will relieve the anxiety or relax you. It's to make the time during the natural decrease if anxiety more pleasant

@NOCD Advocate - Katie If it relaxes you, that's wonderful, but it isn't the goal
