I hate this feeling. The intrusive thoughts feel like facts and I don’t have much anxiety about it anymore, but it makes me feel so sad. I don’t have it in me to fight the thoughts anymore. SO-OCD is so confusing.

Sexual Orientation OCD can be such a confusing theme to deal with. OCD loves to give us thoughts that feel true and urgent. It’s really valuable that you’re able to label the emotions you’re feeling and recognize the sadness that’s there. One thing that really helps me when I feel like giving up is community. Talking with others who experience the same themes as you might be really healing. We’d love to have you stop by one of the support groups that we run! I know it can feel dark, scary, and confusing. You aren’t alone and we are here to help!
