Hi there! I'm here and willing to listen as well. As much as we would like to seek reassurance, I implore you to sit with the thoughts and sensations and try not to metaphorically "poke" at them. They are not intrusive thoughts, rather, they are creative possibilities that your brain created. You are not in danger, no matter how real it may seem. Even the most overtly sexual images or thoughts or feelings of ambiguity can be misinterpreted; it's so important to remember that your brain is your friend and trying hard to cope with this misfiring. That is what OCD is at its core - a consistent misfire of the amygdala, nothing more and nothing less. It does not make you trans or gay or any other label. You are you. I hope this can alleviate some of your stress, you're never alone here :)

I was mediating and I thought of myself and I saw myself as a woman which really scared me. Can OCD be that powerful?

@NOCD Advocate - David N. I guess the thing that scared me was that it I thought that OCD couldn't visualize for you, it had tried before to hijak the visualizations but it never visualized for me.

@NOCD Advocate - David N. The OCD is telling me that because this happens that I need to become trans. What should I do?
