Don't type this so much

Iโve noticed youโve said this a lot in the last couple of days. You are ruminating and typing this and asking this is a compulsion. There is no such thing as a gay face but there is a thing called a rude and mindless person. The girl who said you have โgay faceโ is rude and her opinion does not matter. There is no such thing as a gay face. Dispel this myth in your head. There is no such thing as a gay face. A face is a face. When we all die, we are just bones. How can you tell if someone is gay through their bones and flesh? You canโt. Now stop thinking about this situation and each time you think about this. Remind yourself that there is no such thing as a gay face. There are only faces.

You need to delete the app for a couple days, youโre posting way too much and this is a compulsion thatโs making you much worse

Notice how you get hung up on a few negative things some random person tells you, but ignore all the times nobody said anything or said something positive.

@Ihateocd83 Ask yourself why you're focused on this random girl's comment. What if someone close to you said you didn't have a gay face?

@Ihateocd83 I mean that you can have HOcD and fear been gay and realise you are Gay.. ocd doesnโt mean youโre not the thing you fear or this is how it was explained to me

@Ben84 I'm just miserable. And it's making me really bad tempered and I've always been really laid back. My head hurts and it's a mess ๐

@Ihateocd83 What other OCD resources do you use besides this app?
- Date posted

@Ben84 I've had therapy which helped a bit. I think the main thing with me is that I don't believe it is ocd. I can hardly find women attractive anymore I used to be crazy about women like a dog on heat. But it's slowly got worse and all I have is men in my head ๐

@Ihateocd83 I don't know your exact situation since I can't get inside your head, but could part of the problem be you're comparing your past feelings for women to today? We're about the same age. While I still feel attraction, it's not the same as it was.

@Ben84 Also, find resources related to OCD. Chrissie Hodges on You Tube, The OCD Stories podcast, books that others recommend, etc.

@Ihateocd83 Perhaps try therapy again. Regardless of whether that's an option for you, look into other OCD resources ๐.

@Ben84 I spent so much money on it and can't Offord anymore. I don't see people with the same thoughts I have ๐

@Ihateocd83 Then look into other resources. Podcasts, You Tube videos, and articles don't really cost you anything extra. Also, try the live seminars they have on here throughout the week.
