I also remember having a sexual experiment with a friend when I was 13, and the act left me disgusted and ashamed with myself. I never repeated any action like that again, and I still hate myself for it even now. Please help me. I know I’m asking for too much, but this is all I have left. I don’t have any hate or spite towards the LGBTQ+ I truly don’t. If people want to get married or be with the person they think they should love, then what’s the issue? But I can’t see myself as gay or bisexual in any scenario and I never will.

I need answers. Definitive answers. I’ve been doing ERP to the best of my ability. I’ve been accepting the thoughts, agreeing with the thoughts, not giving a shit about the thoughts, you name it. No ones going to want to be my therapist and I understand that. I just need answers is all. No nonsense actual answers to help me with this.

@Joo K You need to do ERP for MONTHS. A few hours isn't going to make a difference. You can't diet for two hours and be angry that you look the same. Healing is a process and you are making yourself sicker with every post here.

@Emma I guess that’s the most difficult part. MONTHS of ERP. It’s so difficult to overcome when you have false attractions, recurring memories, groinal responses, going against you. The odds are stacked against you. You are in a battle with your mind that’s doing anything and everything it can to convince you that your this, when your not. It’s really hard to overcome that. I just hope you see what I’m going through here

@Joo K You really don't seem to be committed if the most effort you can give is a few hours and you keep posting for comfort. You have to reach a point where your suffering is bad enough that you're willing to do what it takes to get better.

@Emma I’ve been trying man. I’ve been trying to withstand and agree or accept every single thought that comes my way, but you think my HOCD’s letting me rest? No. It’s just constant symptom after symptom after symptom. After a while, when you can’t sleep because you have these thoughts and memories clouding your mind, it’s really tempting to get reassurance.

@Joo K If you stop seeking reassurance and commit to OCD you could be on the path to getting better, but you keep throwing away your progress
