i’m on day three identifying as bisexual for exposure therapy! the thoughts don’t bother me at all, and i still accept uncertainty just fine. my attraction to women has gone down a tad bit, but i know it’ll go back once the anxiety has lessened. i feel awesome! if anyone has any questions, ask away !

Please respond to me

let me try to find your post!

Identifying to yourself as bisexual?

A lot of people do stuff like this. Seen a guy on YouTube over exaggerate all of his intrusive thoughts for a month to cure his SOOCD.

yes! once the fear of identifying of bisexual goes away, so will OCD, because it’s based off fear.

Is SOOCD for you basically the same as one for a straight person just reversed or is there some charactersistics that differ from what a straight person would experience?

it’s typically normal in the way a straight person would feel it- groin responses, intrusive thoughts, and loss of attraction. the only difference is the root of the problem- the fear that i’m not valid enough.

@☁️ 𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘪𝘯 ☁️ Hmm that’s interesting to hear that the root cause is pretty different. Also is being bi the fear or did it start with being Hetero then it switched to bi?
