ocd can definitely influence those things! i'd be curious also to hear what your doctor would have to say or your psychiatrist - if you're on meds then medications can affect this one way or the other. it may also just get better and improve over time as you continue to reduce your symptoms.

Mam thank you so much for replying !. The thing is that I'm not an adult. I'm just 15 years old. I'm not comfortable with anyone knowing about my hocd. I tried to tell my sister about it but I'm scared that she thinks that I'm gay. I'm neither on meds, nor have I visited any psychiatrist. I really dont wanna tell anyone about this. What can I doš

Iāve completely lost myself. I canāt focus on my studies, I canāt go to the gym. Dang it I canāt even be around my male friends normally anymore. I got no idea why or how this happened but the only thing I know for sure is that I never questioned my sexuality neither doubted it. I never cared in general. I just liked girls. I keep testing and keep testing and keep testing my arousal but no matter how many times I see but I donāt feel the same way for guys that I do with girls my mind will always try to make me believe that I am gay. Itās like itās forcing me into an identity I never asked for. But at the end of the day like my psychologist told me. Sexuality doesnāt change. So since I never felt anything for guys in my life itās ocd. Iāve been up and down for 5 months now and while the last week I was feeling way better. Monday now and Iām back to zero. I just want to go back when everything was normal. I canāt keep living with this.

anyone else have a good evening/ day then fall back down hurrendously the next day? Honestly yesterday I felt great! Like I knew what I like (opposite gender) and these āfalse attractionsā are just false alarms caused by OCD⦠like I knew these thoughts and feeling are OCD. Today I question it all over again. Are these false attractions real? Why has my loss of opposite attraction feel like it wonāt return? Though yesterday I got snippets.

Iāve tried accepting the uncertainty, Iāve accepted I may be gay, bi or still straight. Iāve tried doing ERP myself to the best I can. When I accept that Iām gay or bi why doesnāt my head agree and move on? Why does it still question it? I know I donāt want to be at all. I love my family. But I just want this to move on. I want to enjoy life. Why canāt I find women attractive again? (Brief moments I do). I seriously donāt understand the false attraction? Iāve tried agreeing with it but it wonāt let this drop. Why am I attracted to the same sex? Why am I attracted to people I would never thought of looking at? Why does it give me such grief about this? I know I shouldnāt look at adult content but why can I only feel good watching either lesbian or females? I tried to agree with the gay but it makes me sick and horrendous I even considered this? I just want my life back.
