i am also feeling really depressed lately, especially because i am in a relationship and it got worse while i’m in it. ocd makes you feel like you’re lying to yourself and it makes you cry and depressed. you can make it through this

Having similar feelings and I hate this. Im trying to not do compulsions and sit with the anxiety. The thoughts have subsided but the anxiety is lingering and I feel so shaky and scared. Its so confusing because now I have no idea how to get rid of the anxiety and calm down.

@hate_ocd.123 Yeah I felt like my brain had accepted that I was a lesbian and that I was going to break up with my boyfriend and I almost passed out I was so shaky. I feel like I'm drowning and desperately trying to survive. I saw where you mentioned you have been dealing with this for six years. It's been about two years where it's this intense for me. It went away for about six months and then came back. No idea why or how I even got rid of it. I just miss my life

But ive also had this for six years so when it gets too much i sometimes just shut off My ocd is just saying “if you accept it and stop fighting it you’ll finally be fine with being gay” And im like “but i dont wanna be gayor end up with a girl. I wanna eventually be with a guy. I dont want this.”

@hate_ocd.123 my ocd has been focusing more on me being a man when i am a woman. but when i first was struggling with soocd, i thought i liked thinking about women, and i found that if you feel disturbed by the thought and know that it’s absolutely something that makes you uncomfortable, then it isn’t something you want.

@anxious whenever i feel like i wasn’t supposed to be a woman, i feel sad and disturbed. ocd warps how you feel so you can never really trust your thoughts and even how you’re feeling. i found that by accepting the uncertainty brings you comfort, but sometimes, i still get in those moods where i am miserable and feel nothing like myself anymore

@anxious Even if i were to say im uncomfortable and it makes me sad, it feels like im lying But it does make me sad. Im so depressed rn. Im angry at everything especially myself and crying at least once a day. I hate it. Cause the worse part is how my ocd has now made me feel about boys, took my attraction away and now gives me feelings of discomfort, thoughts of “why would someone even like guys” or “why are guys even attractive,” but im more comfortable w/ the intimate / romantic thoughts (ALSO I HEARD THIS IS VERY NORMAL FOR PEOPLE WITH HOCD) and i hate feeling like that towards guys cause i want them and just wanna fawn over them and be boy crazy And w/ girls i get like my head heating up, groinal responses and just utter hell and feel like i fawn over them when i dont want to and get so scared and hate it so much Does this even sound like ocd or just denial? Im so scared and confused :(

I am a 18 year old masc lesbian with a loving girlfriend for 1 year, and I have been lesbian for almost my whole life and I have never been attracted to men in any way. flash to my past, My ex girlfriend who used to identify as a lesbian had cheated on me with a man. Recently I saw this tiktok of this masc lesbian turn straight and my friends and girlfriend made jokes I am going to turn straight for my male best friend. My male best friend came over and he’s a great guy but I do not want him in any way. when him and i were hanging out my mind threw in a thought it was “What if i like him”, i came back home and i had the worst panic attack and i felt so sick, i cried and i cried. ever since that day I have been struggling with intrusive thoughts, i don’t want a man in any way, and i feel comfortable as a lesbian but these thoughts won’t stop and they become worse when i see people say being lesbian is a phase or that i haven’t met the right guy or i’ll change in the future. i just want these thoughts to stop, i don’t want to stop being a lesbian ever, i love women so much and i just want all of this to be over with. i do not want a man in any way and im tired of my thoughts doubting myself and i hate the “what ifs”, I just want to be my old self, I want to be happy with my girlfriend.

I don’t know if it’s SOOCD. I no longer feel anxious in the moment when I think about women, and it’s like my imagination wants me to think about it and get aroused. I don’t want to be gay, but maybe I am after all. In my life I haven’t been so sexually driven before (when I was living with a man, or when being single) but now all I can think about is having sex with a woman. I don’t want to, but somehow my body does and it feels like my mind have changed to accept it to.. feel so sad This all started around 4 weeks ago..

hi i’m a lesbian! and i have known im a lesbian for a really long time and i have a sweet girlfriend of 1 year. it all started when i saw this masc lesbian come out as straight, after that i had my guy friend over and he’s a sweet guy and he was flirting with me (he didn’t know i was gay) im not sure but i panicked and my brain froze and i was like “do i like him”, ever since my brain has been over worked 24/7 for 2 months now and it’s spiralling constantly. im trying to control it but all these thoughts are so disgusting and my brain tries to put him and i in scenarios that make me uncomfortable and i feel panic and i hate it. i have always been comfortable being a lesbian and i still am comfortable as a lesbian, but i dislike these thoughts i have about him and men and i want it to be over. i do not want to experiment with men even tho my brain is telling me i do, i find it disgusting and i dread it, i have a sweet girlfriend and i want to be with her forever, i do not imagine anything with any men and i hate these thoughts. im scared of becoming bisexual/straight one day and i hate hearing sexuality is fluid. its a whole mix of comphet and so-ocd
