I think i’ve hit my head a total of like 16-20 times, and i don’t think i can anymore. Im still sobbing and everytime i say im gay out loud as a comoulsion, it feels real and like i want women. When i say im straight and want men it feels like a lie and i get like a wave of disgust. I then start crying more and hit myself again. I just want to want men, and even as i said that i felt those feelings. And i dont want women. I dont want women so baldy and that for once feels authentic. I just dont wanna be gay 😭😭

@hate_ocd.123 Hey you! I have had the worst couple of days dealing with HOCD now so know you aren’t alone in this! But you say that you get this disgust feeling or a wave of discomfort when thinking about liking men, and this I experience a lot too. But I always tell myself that, I can’t know that when I am by myself and in my own thoughts. It is something that we have to experience in real life. Like thinking about liking anything alone in your head can make you think you like it, but in reality you don’t. So never trust your thoughts and try to be more observant to them and not fight or dwell on them. I wish you all the best

@🥰 That’s the thing. I’m super inexperienced and there’s been occasions where i didnt like intimacy with men (i have severe ptsd from severe past sexual abuse w/ men, so my body will respond and not my head) and the only one to get past that was my ex and i remember doing stuff (we never kissed cause he was super christain and didn’t wanna do anything outside a relationship) with him, like him holding me and kissing my forehead and us just being very touchy and i loved it. It felt like i was home. I loved him. Now i feel like im not gonna like kissing men and im feel like i find them gross and the idea of them gross and that im never gonna have that love i want cause i like fucking women and i hate it

@Hocd Warrior Well when i was crying about being gay it felt more real than when im not crying And it felt genuine and like i liked the thoughts & women & wouldnt mind doing stuff and i dont want to feel that way but i do so i just have to accept it and wallow in self hatred and depression and anger I hate this

@hate_ocd.123 well neither have i. actually when i used to kiss my boyfriend back in 9th grade i didn't quite enjoy it (he was a bad kisser i guess) and like wouldn't let him touch my ass. maybe it's the way i was raised, to be like respect and not do anything physical with a guy just to like be a "good girl". i don't know how to explain it though hahaha sorry

what the hell? this entire day ive been trying to do ERP right? allowing the thoughts feelings, sensations be there with very little reaction, saying"oh that's a thought", "that's a feeling" don't care" etc. But it seems to be making it 100x times worse. Like its impossible to just"ignore" it, it feels so freaking real as if this was the truth, the doubts are real, the false attraction feelings and lip sensations are REAL and genuine attraction, feels ego-synotic, its impossible just to ignore or move on from it because I think I'm so hyperfocused on it all so it last the whole day. IDK right now it feels and seems as if I lost? like its not a what if but it feels factual like"I'm naturally gay, I'm gay" and it feels like normal and become ok with that. But I don't want that I don't want to be gay.

Like I can’t think straight. This is making me doubt everything I’ve thought about myself and even makes me feel like I like the thoughts when I know I don’t. Like I would be less anxious at a time while I still have the thoughts and my mind would go “oh so you like it you must be gay” or the other one where I’m not anxious and I think of my attraction for girls that I’ve had my whole life and my mind goes “see now you’re not into them you’re gay” like it’s so stupid but so effective. I clearly remember being into girls my whole life but my mind is making me believe that all these attractions and feelings for women were all fake or “a thing of the past”. But I can still get aroused by women but I have this weird anxiety going on which brings these sensations/feelings and it’s so weird. Today I’ve spent my whole day thinking about it like I’ve been doing for 5 months now. I know that this aint normal but my mind just won’t let me live in peace. I never cared about my sexuality cuz I simply liked women my whole life but now my sexuality is a fundamental philosophy. I hate this.
