@Nour04 And its just so complicated cause half the time idek how i feel. Like when i read things my mind just goes “you’re gay, its not hocd” and as im about to start treatment its saying i dont wanna get rid of the thoughts, and its making me scared to be attracted to guys again and not women, and i feel almost scared to move on from this and my mind goes “That’s because your gay and want the thoughts, but this is the only way you’ll accept them.” Do you experience all this too or am i just crazy?? Even now i feel like im lying and that im a lesbian and like the thoughts when i dont wanna :( I feel like this is comphet / internalized homophobia and i hate it I was doing SO much better than my brother had to go and fuck it up

@Nour04 And like i used to feel anxious around girls and my brother says thats attraction and ever since it feels like i actually like girls Like im so scared i like girls And i feel like as i admit it more and more its becoming more real And im so scared and depressed snd everything and im finding no joy in this I just wanna be attracted to men so badly and not get intrusive feelings of disgust when i think about one and feel comfortable w/ being uncomfortable w/ some of them & not have me thinking that makes me gay and vica versa with females i hate this:(

@hate_ocd.123 yes exactly i can relate to every tiny detail of this!!! i too sometimes don't want to get rid of the thoughts because it "proves" this is hocd and not denial. i have read your posts about what your brother had told you and i am so sorry someone so close to you had to invalidate you so bad. i understand how awful this is. comphet makes me so nauseous whenever i think of it because a lot of stuff applies and it terrifies me too what you're going through is valid, don't let anyone tell you otherwise even if it's family and they're close. no one lives inside your mind 24/7 and no one knows what goes on inside of it as much as you. no one knows your real struggle to tell you what's going on with you, especially if they're not a professional. and most importantly, what your mind tells you is not you, and i see you for the beauty inside and if you're not able yo see that right now it's okay, just know that it still shows and that is awesome, because for someone struggling so much you still appear so strong and it's because you are and that's the real you!

I feel like the thoughts and feelings are getting stronger, to the point where they feel like they are my own and that I want them and want them to happen. Recently I’ve even had feelings of ‘wanting to be gay’ and that I ‘don’t want to be straight’, or that being with a woman would be nice even though that’s literally the one thing I don’t want otherwise I wouldn’t be constantly thinking about it day after day surely and if I wanted it I would just know? I feel numb and sick and terrified that I’ll just be what I’ve feared all this time. Why does my brain do this. I feel like I’ve lost so much already, I couldn’t concentrate on university work and I’ve had to delay my degree for a year, I’ve lost my purpose, and I feel so ashamed that I can’t tell anyone the real reason for it (I just told everyone the course was too much stress and was causing me anxiety) and it just feels like it’s getting worse to the point that it’s actually coming true, and I’m going to have to leave my boyfriend because I can’t be with him anymore. Why do the thoughts sometimes feel good? Why does it feel like real attraction? Why why why does it feel like DISAPPOINTMENT with the idea of never being with a woman wtf this is literally what I don’t want and never have? Even just writing that out my brain is telling me ‘it is’ and ‘I’m lying’ and I just can’t even believe myself anymore. I’ve tried telling myself the whole maybe maybe not but it just doesn’t work. It feels like if I accept I like woman I’ll want to be with one and leave him. Why does the idea of being with a man not fill me with excitement like it used to why do labels terrify me I genuinely just want to give up I still haven’t even told anyone about this cause I just feel like they won’t understand and that they will just think I’m struggling with my sexuality and the worst thing is I don’t even know what I want anymore cause of the thoughts and feelings I don’t know what to believe what if I am actually just struggling with my sexuality cause nothing feels right anymore

Is there something wrong with me if I’m not disgusted by my intrusive thoughts anymore like the disgust feeling has been gone for months now and why are my thoughts feel like they’re literally so close happening inside my brain why can I lowkey physically feel the images of that makes sense,Why do I get adrenaline why do I get a weird tingle my lips sometimes make an awkward like position when I get the thoughts it’s like I’m having a glitch idek which thought is intentional which one is intrusive but there bad thoughts and I don’t want them to be the truth about me but I literally cannot get myself to just feel relaxed even if they’re present like I actually get genuine headaches and feel uneasy for hours after having intrusive thoughts and I hate how it’s always the same kinda thoughts and sensations feelings etc around those thoughts out of nowhere when I’m just chilling they come in before when I had it is be like okay ew weird thought now I’m like what if I actually like this and I’m in denial uGHHH HATE MY BRAIN
