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! It’s not who you are. The reason why you are suffering because you don’t like these thoughts. You are suffering because you care! But you don’t have to suffer. You have to accept these thoughts as just thoughts

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

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

I’m not quite sure if medication is good, I’ve 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 aren’t your thoughts. It feels real yes, that’s because OCD gives a FALSE attraction. So yes, people who suffer from ocd, it’s normal to feel this! But it’s all your head, not you as a person.

it's gonna happen, expecting the worse case scenario at this point (vent)
i think i gave up, every time i try to calm down, practice self-compassion or accept uncertainty something worse happens that seems to confirm my event. it feels too, too real even now, it's getting worse with each passing day. i'm really scared, it's hard for me to enjoy the few good moments i have with everyone because now i'm convinced that i'm a horrible person, i know everyone will hate me when they find out, i feel like i'm lying to them. i'll lose everything. i feel like my life is genuinely ending, i'll lose all the good things i worked hard for.
