I overcame my HOCD ask me any questions

oh really? have you ever felt like you were actually gay and there was nothing u could do ab it? and have u ever lost ALL ur attraction to men while feeling like you were truly attracted to women? It seems like I was never straight to begin with

The gay part yes and i just accepted it. But with the loosing attraction in boys yes it happened the day it all started and i was watching youtube videos of sexy guys. And yes it felt like i was attracted to women. I would be scared to look at them afraid that something would happen to me.

The part of recovery will be when u go from gay to bi.

@Anonymous help would you feel like you were genuinely attracted? and like you’d feel sensations and anxiety even thinking ab talking to them? and like feeling the urge to kiss them?

@Anonymous help Wait really? Because that’s how I feel right now. Like for 2-3 months I literally thought I was gay. I had no attraction to any guy (even my bf) and would have constant intrusive thoughts/images and groinal responses. Now my anxiety is much lower and I don’t have as many intrusive thoughts. I’m still dealing with instrusive images and will still get groinal responses but they are soooo much less than before. And now I definitely feel attracted to my bf. So now I’m like what if I’m bi. I don’t really ruminate about it but it still doesn’t feel right. Like I’ll still have moments of anxiety about whether or not I’m attracted to a girl or would I like a girl or if I have a thought/image or groinal response. But it’s a lot better so I’m happy about that. I still don’t feel like myself yet though

@strawberry ice cream Yes i had urges to kiss or hold hands

@Whyyocd Yeah it will take a while to jump back into reality but finding attraction with men is a good sign you are on your way back to normal. I love my bf now and get groinal responses now with him. And i dont have anymore images like very rarely

@Anonymous help Thank you so much 💗

Yes you can still recover from it. It will take a while but yes you can. If i can so can you:)
