A lot of SOOCD cases start with porn use. Started with mine and so many other people. Doesn’t even have to be gay or lesbian porn, some people watched straight and imagined themselves as the opposite sex for a second and boom that’s all it takes. Porn Addiction can escalate you into thinking things and causing SOOCD or any of the other sexual OCD subtypes.

mine didn’t start from porn but from a thought but it just seems like a cop out like i’m using porn as an excuse for my fantasies instead of being like “oh yeah it’s because i’m bisexual” but truthfully i never had these until i began watching lesbian porn

@holley Porn can definitely cause people to get fantasies. But there’s no way to tell, fantasies don’t make your sexuality though. I can suggest stopping if you already haven’t for like a month of all porn use and see if the fantasy is still strong or present at all.

Are you totally sure it’s a fantasy? What happens that causes you to think about it and how long have you had it?

@holley Well if it’s OCD then you should do common practices to help recover from OCD, I’m sure you already know that though. A fantasy is a fantasy in the end of the day, a lot of people have some that are physically impossible and yet they remain, I guess it’s up to the person on whether or not it’s something worth chasing after. But yeah you say it’s a fantasy and that you never had the fantasy before porn so it only makes sense that that’s how it came about.

How did your so-ocd feel when it started?
For me it was a weird intrusive thought and after that I slowly started developing anxiety and I felt a weird thing like I was losing my attraction to girls. Then I woke up one day in complete panic cuz it felt like I had lost feelings for girls suddenly and I started searching online how to know if you’re gay if sexuality changes suddenly and I took some gay tests or sexuality tests online. Chat gpt was a big thing back then too. That was before therapy and before I knew what ocd is.Can anyone relate?

Can someone please offer words of advice :(
Why are things so real the first time they’re in my mind and then when I think about it later it’s easier for me to be like wtf?? I was watching a movie earlier and the young girl had developed more in the chest area than the last movie and I felt the desire to check her out so I did. Then later I let myself imagine her having sex and I liked it. But now looking back I’m like ew. The boys in the movie have also developed as the movie went on and I couldn’t help but think that in their real life they’ve probably woken up to boners and s*men and stuff. And looking back it’s just ugh. Idk if it’s sexual relevance but I genuinely let myself indulge in these thoughts and groinal responses and I remember thinking to myself I don’t want to be attracted to little kids and how do I stop myself (everyone has attractive qualities so in younger boys I see man like qualities). Idk I need help. I wouldn’t type this out if I truly believe I was messed up but I’m still scared
