I have had soocd for 15 years. I think to myself after having it for so long…should i just be gay now?? All that suffering for no reason?? But i have a gf and love her. It affects my sex life because during foreplay my soocd makes me think..am i really straight or not? Im worried she is gonna leave me because sometimes i cannot perform.

Thanks. It has really been draining on me. I just want to finally be able to get a hold of it. It started when i was 12 and my sister told me i was going to grow up to be gay because my mom babied me as a kid

@dylen Youll get through it! My biggest regret is not going to therapy at your age. Im proud of you for being in therapy so young

@Anonymous I’m not in therapy, but I am recovering by accepting the uncertainty, I thought I needed therapy but now I’m finding peace by accepting the uncertainty and not getting an answer to my problems, it’s been long since I’ve been at at least somewhat peace
