Does it make you feel like you like it? But then it makes you anxious so you shut it down?

@Imaan7 This freaks me out too at the thought of being bi, I’m not comfortable with the idea of being attracted to both sexes. Like I only want to be attracted to guys but ocd keeps writing me off as bi. I really don’t want to enjoy those thoughts and feelings of liking women.

backdoor spike alert! this is a common trick that the ocd tries to play. once you start to recover and not be as anxious about things, the ocd may make you start doubting what you truly want and have you think things like, well you like those things now, you must otherwise you would be anxious. try to practice non-engagement as much as possible - maybe, maybe not.

I’m undiagnosed cause I can’t find a good therapist in my country so I do some self erp to at least help, I’m hoping so hard this is all ocd even when it feels so real
