I’m the same way. I want to be happy for them, but there’s so many of them and it makes me feel like it’s inevitable that I am as well even though I know that’s not true. It’s definitely a big trigger because it makes me doubt myself.

Yes I feel the exact same way, that’s why it triggers me too. Idk if it’s just bc i fixate on it but it just always seems like everyone’s coming out, which is great for them but yeah it makes me doubt myself. Like that Casey fray came out today too

@Melodyocd Yeah exactly. Seeing that stuff makes me question whether I’m suppressing or something.

@stop. Yup yup yup, especially then when I think of comphet. Ugh. I’m trying hard to not overthink it and stuff but it’s so difficult, sometimes I think if social media didn’t exist I would’ve never had this theme

@Melodyocd I always like to think what it would be like to never have this theme and where I would be without it. It honestly makes me feel sad because I realize how much OCD has taken from me. And comphet is a big one for me too. It’s just a lot for my to handle sometimes.

@stop. It sure sounds like it haha! It doesn’t help that I hate dating apps either, but it’s so hard to meet people in real life when you’re shy haha

Celebs/people i looked up to coming out has always been a major trigger for me so i totally get what you mean. Like logically i know that them coming out has no influence on me or any of us but its still terrifying. Hope youre okay :)

Same! I don’t know why it’s a huge trigger for me either, I guess it all links back to I’m scared it’s a sign it means something about me because I used to like them. I’m doing a bit better now thank you :)

Awh I’m so sorry I hope you’re okay too :(( luckily I think my meds are working bc I don’t get too much anxiety anymore, but still get so much doubt and I used to watch her videos all the time so seeing all this feels like a “sign”

What did she come out as??

I don’t think she really did for sure. All I could find is that she posted an ig pic with another girl and a cryptic caption

Yeah she didn’t say it exactly, but everyone’s assuming that this girl is her girlfriend. Especially after she said she’s never organsmed before and her last partner was a man, it makes me scared the same thing will happen to me I guess

I had a bad rumination spiral yesterday and went to bed hoping I’d start over in the morning. I was wrong. I had dreams about liking women and not being attracted to men anymore and my entire body has been in a state of anxiety since. I genuinely feel like I’m gay and just need to accept it. I have this urge to accept it. Maybe if I do I’ll get some sort of relief because this feeling is awful. I feel like my brain is telling me that I’ll get relief if I just accept it and come out. The intrusive thoughts don’t even seem to be around sexual images anymore, just to come out.

I keep seeing tiktoks of things that are like ‘things I did as a lesbian in denial’ or ‘things my not so straight straight friend said’ and I feel like I might relate to some!! But idk!! It’s kinda triggering me. I’ve had this 5 years on and off now so when it comes back the whole well you’ve had it so long you must be gay comes up. I have been with my boyfriend almost 6 years and i love him so much I don’t want to be gay (nothing weong with it - I’m just not and don’t want to be!)
