@raj123 Not being homophobic doesn't mean you're gay. It just means you're becoming more accepting that LGBTQ is okay.

I'm the complete opposite. Before HOCD, I'm totally okay with people from the LGBTQ community and support them. But after this, I feel like I've become homophobic and I feel so bad.

I don't know any people who are gay so I dont know much about lgbtq. But my mind is constantly telling me that it's okay to be gay. WHYYYš. IM 15 And I always wanted to be with women of my age and older. I used to fantasize about women everytimeš

@raj123 Same here. When I was a child, I would fantasize about having a boyfriend. Now, with HOCD, I try to imagine myself with a boy and my brain replaces it with the same gender instead.

@CharleneP I'm scared I no longer enjoy fantasizing about women. Neither do I enjoy fantasizing about men

@raj123 Have you gone for a psychiatric consultation?

@CharleneP No, I'm just 15. I dont have any financial helpš. On anxiety days I'm like I need a therapist asap. On non anxiety days, I'm like I'm recovering, why do I need a therapist.

@raj123 If it's impairing your day to day activities, it's best to have a therapists specialised in treating OCD.

@CharleneP I thought I was the only one, unfortunately I think its making sense for me bc I never had a gf or romantic feelings for a girl( Maybe I did and I just cant remember) but I never had any female friends. Would you want to talk about this somewhere else?

Exactly, Now that I understand that its ok if you like same sex but now it feels like why choose girls when you can also like guys? Its messed up my head

Just because you think it's okay to be gay doesn't mean you're gay. Like I think its okay to be trans doesn't mean that I am trans

Like I canāt think straight. This is making me doubt everything Iāve thought about myself and even makes me feel like I like the thoughts when I know I donāt. Like I would be less anxious at a time while I still have the thoughts and my mind would go āoh so you like it you must be gayā or the other one where Iām not anxious and I think of my attraction for girls that Iāve had my whole life and my mind goes āsee now youāre not into them youāre gayā like itās 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 āa thing of the pastā. But I can still get aroused by women but I have this weird anxiety going on which brings these sensations/feelings and itās so weird. Today Iāve spent my whole day thinking about it like Iāve been doing for 5 months now. I know that this aint normal but my mind just wonāt 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.

it feels like i accepted being gay and thats part of who i am but i still feel that tension and fake attraction whenever i see a man and i feel like i could be able to have a sexual intercourse with a man even though i dont want it is it still hocd or just denial? like i am feeling okey but there is still that doubt that how can i know that im not gay if i dont get disgusted by gay things or gay personality traits and at the same time i want to feel normal again like before

Iāve had hocd for around 11 months now. Itās gotten to the point where Iām just convinced that I am bi. I still like boys like I always have, but I feel like I like girls too. I have no anxiety either or active thoughts. Itās just kinda there like yep Iām bi and ok with it. Anyone else? Just curious.
