I'm sorry I've been struggling for a long time too and feel the same way. You aren't alone. Keep trying and treating the ocd. I know it's so hard, try to just focus on the present one step at a time. I know it's hard.

Read your username. You hate ocd! Ocd is NOT YOU! You have to trust me on this. Please. Ocd is not you at all. We have chemical imbalance in our brains. THIS ISNT YOUR FAULT. Trust me please ocd is a monster! Itās not who you are. The reason why you are suffering because you donāt like these thoughts. You are suffering because you care! But you donāt have to suffer. You have to accept these thoughts as just thoughts

This is called False Attraction. You can look it up. Itās linked to OCD. Itās your anxiety, not real genuine attraction

Yes, absolutely. Itās literally your ocd thatās making you think these things. And the reality is itās not true at all!!! You are so fixated on it. Believe me itās not real even if it feels real, itās all false attraction and your ocd just messing with you. You donāt have to suffer, life is too short. I recommend you seek help as soon as you can, but just know the fact you donāt want to be gay goes to show you arenāt gay at all.

Iām not quite sure if medication is good, Iāve heard lots of mixed reviews about it. In my personal opinion the best type of way to help fix this problem is to find a therapist on this app. I promise you. You arenāt your thoughts. It feels real yes, thatās because OCD gives a FALSE attraction. So yes, people who suffer from ocd, itās normal to feel this! But itās all your head, not you as a person.

idk
I feel like Iāll never lead a normal life again with OCD, my thoughts have begun to be convince especially about POCD. I feel like so sad and down that this will be my life forever. Iāll never get to fall in love again without intrusive thoughts. Iāll never be worth falling in love with. I can never be intimate again. Iām just done, my life is over. I canāt even look at my nephew and niece anymore without the smile fading. It feels like Iām so nasty and then my brain convinces me this is how I feel. That thereās some part of me that is a p*do and thatās it. Iām a disgusting human being for that. I just feel hopeless

I donāt like myself
Iām really down and donāt have anyone i feel i can turn to. Iām just so tired of living as myself. I hate who i love with including myself. I feel so worthless. Having ocd on top of it makes me feel like im just a waste of space. I dont know how to stop feeling this way. Or if i deserve to. Thatās all :(

Everyday is a constant cycle of regret and misery
Everyday I wake up, all my mind makes me think of is the stuff Iāve done in the past, like all day Iām in a constant cycle of judging who I used to be and it hurts so so much. I wish I never thought to do those things, I wish I had been more mature than how I was before, itās really lowering my self worth and I donāt think Iāve ever felt this miserable before, like last summer was the worst because I was dealing with this shit, I about almost ended my life over it, and I thought it would get better, which it did, but it didnāt last but for a while. As soon as it became 2025 I was going through it again, having constant cycles of āIām a good personā to āIām the worst person imaginableā and Iām so sick of it because I just want to feel like the good person l like to imagine myself to be, but I canāt because of shit I did in the past that I obsess over. Iāve cried and screamed so much over it and it seems like it will never leave me.
