I sometimes forget that I'm not the only one going through this. I feel your pain of losing the attraction. That animal feeling for the opposite sex and having that almost disappear while your mind tries to replace it with the worst thing imaginable. It's hell on earth. I've been at this a long time and while I've seen some improvement due to therapy (without meds), I had a bad day and bad days easily make me forget alot of the progress I've made. God bless you all. We will beat this...

I relate so bad I remember loving seeing girls and just drooling over them now I feel like that feeling will never come back sexuality is such an important part of your identity..

See even before i was never boy crazy I got this when i was 12/13 and im 18 now, so i was just starting to be interested in a guys (literally like four months before i told my grandpa who i was really close too that i think im starting to like guys) and i only ever saw guys as romantic partners even though i knew it was possible to like girls (i just never really thought about it or cared until hocd) Like right before this hit i had my first sex dream with a guy and enjoyed it And then this would come and go and the last time it went i was 15 and fell in love with a guy but since him / then there’s just been nothing Im so scared :( I feel like i was a lesbian as a child and didnt realize it And this false attraction / ocd shit has gotta be the most confusing thing ever

Mine started when I was about 16 what makes it worse is I did actually experiment with guys a little when I was like 9 years old so maybe I’m actually bi but I don’t think as an adult now I would actually do stuff with a guy

And ohhh see i never experimented past like childhood “show me yours and ill show you mine” or spying on your friends getting changed (i did that once) But the following year a girl tried to strip in front of me when i was 11, and got fully naked and tried to come onto me (she’s a lesbian now) and i shielded my eyes and yelled at her that it was disgusting

@hate_ocd.123 I did experimented when I was young but told the boy to act like a girl, for years I felt shame because of what I did, I remember I called myself a bunch of names for doing it before I got hocd and was 100000 percent straight, I hated myself for what I did when I was young but then I realized it’s normal for kids to do that stuff when their young, apparently most straight people did it when they were young yknow

@dylen Yea man I just think it’s fucking feeding this though like a reason for me to believe it you know

There’s no such thing as experimenting when you’re 9…. You were playing. Children have 0 concept of sexuality, attraction, and sex until around again 12 or again much much later ! You did something you’re seeing as unacceptable and inappropriate but so many of us did this too

I'm really struggling with this loss of attraction. I don't even think of girls and it feels like I'm attracted to men and there genitals and don't really like women's. but I know I'm still attracted to women like I couldn't keep my eyes off them even since this all started at 22 years of age and I never questioned my sexuality before then. I'm 38 now and it just feels as tho I want to be with a man. But I just can't that. And I think I find it disgusting but I'm not even sure now 😔

I have been doing okay for the past week or so and was really happy i felt that i was getting back on track, but today i went on tiktok and i saw something triggering which was “i thought i was a lesbian for 4 years until i met my now boyfriend” and it triggered me very badly, i have been crying all day and i can’t seem to make myself feel okay. i feel like im lying to myself that im not lesbian and i truly want men, but when i get any thought about men it feels disgusting and wrong and not me, i don’t want men i feel so sick i want to get out of this. i always felt so happy as a lesbian im so stuck i don’t want to be with a man. i have a loving girlfriend i just want to be happy with her.

I won’t explain this again if you’ve been or going through it you know what I’m talking about. I felt good about women about an hour ago and now I’m worrying again I’m anxious and the groinals are back and it’s so annoying because I can’t study. And honestly I’m so sick and tired of this. I’ve been a girl crazy my whole life and my mind randomly decides “well what if you are gay” like bro. I’ve never seen a guy that way and in general IT WAS NEVER SOMETHING I THOUGHT ABOUT OR ASSOCIATED MYSELF WITH. IVE NEVER FELT ANYTHING TOWARDS A MAN AND NOW IT FEELS LIKE IT RANDOMLY FLIPPED. I CANT DO THIS BRO. WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN IVE BEEN GOING THROUGH INSECURITIES ALREADY AND MY ATTRACTION WAS THE ONLY REAL THING I HAD LEFT AND NOW THIS. HOW MUCH DO YOU HATE ME GOD.

I feel different from others, I don’t feel as feminine and I feel like I’ve changed. I’m not sure why I feel this way. I also don’t think my ocd is ocd, it’s just something I told myself to feel better. I know! What if I am what if I’m not, I get it, but I don’t feel like i have a choice in the matter anymore. I have soocd and it’s eaten me alive for years. I woke up out of my sleep and got triggered and here I am. I don’t know what I feel anymore. I always wanted a boyfriend and now It seemed to change. I don’t want a girlfriend, it’s just that I don’t see anything for myself and I feel like I’m hiding. It’s hard to explain. Plus sometimes the way I move or speak makes me feel more masculine and it kills me. Im feeling so lost and alone right now. I know what I want deep down but I feel incapable of having those things because I won’t be able to have feeling. If that makes sense.
