Are you imagining on purpose to see how you feel? Because that's a compulsion if so xx

@Lilyrosalynd You need to accept that as a possible outcome. But it's not helping you to do compulsions

@Lilyrosalynd Even though it’s really hard, it’s best to not ask for reassurance. I have SO-OCD too, best thing to do for me is imagine the scenario without assigning meaning to it (exposure) or just saying to yourself “maybe I’m gay, maybe I’m straight, who really knows? It’s not a big deal right now”

@Lilyrosalynd I don’t know if you are or not. No one on this app does. I think you should seek out therapy. Make a call with NOCD. See if you can book some sessions. The amount of posts you’ve made about this topic in the last 24 hours is not normal behavior. NOCD therapy starts with a diagnostic session to determine if you have OCD, so you don’t need to know if you have it to start.

@CaptainKierkegaard but did you ask if i am diagnosed because you doubt i am gay?

@Lilyrosalynd No. Like I said before, even if you have OCD, it doesn’t mean you aren’t gay.

@CaptainKierkegaard But that’s not to say that I think you are gay. I don’t know and it’s not for me to decide. I’m just saying your behavior right now is obsessive and you need to deal with that before trying to determine your sexual orientation.

And what is happening...let's say I come across a video of that person and then I stop the part where it triggers me and I deliberately imagine images of a sexual type, and if I don't feel anything, I look again, as if I want it or I have the urge to imagine it, i.e. I feel the need, and if I feel something or get a feeling in my groin and I feel like I fall into despair?

I see people post about how they feel like their thoughts are real. For me personally I deal with sexual intrusive thoughts and they feel real to me because it feels like I enjoy them. And when I say “it feels like I like them” that’s the same for me as saying “I like them” but some people say that’s different. Idk just curious as to what you guys feel!
