Yeah it’s rough sometimes. Sometimes I feel amazing and I get excited as if it’s finally over, but then the thoughts end up coming back and I go through a low period. I’ve seen my highs and my lows but I know that as long as I keep moving forward and don’t act on the thoughts that one day things will be better.

No medication. I'm going to try solving this on my own. I suffer from HOCD for almost 12 months. And what I've noticed is that it's getting stronger.

Trust me I can be sitting next to someone and having an average conversation and then all of a sudden my thoughts flip it into sexual things and especially having a boyfriend my anxiety attacks go up immediately and I try to disapprove the thoughts I had. For some reason Harm OCD thoughts are super easy for me to get over because I can easily asses that as “that’s dumb as hell I’d never do that” but with HOCD in this sense since I’ve never experienced how to deal with this it’s been harder to get over. I recommend, stay true to who you know for a fact you are. If it’s new and trying to change who you think you are, write it off as bullshit and move on. Easier said than done I know but it’s worth a shot.

Pff my hocd makes me believe everything is, in realise, a woman xd in my imagination so I can't write (And I love it) and outside, which scares me a lot. But you have to accept it and continue with your daily life. Someday you'll think about this and say "how stupid this was" even if you 'll worry for other things, those thoughts will lose value over you too. Thoughts are thoughts. You don't own them and they don't own you ♡

Just agree on what you're mind is telling you. I know it's uncomfortable but thats the only way you can remove this thoughts.

I can't look at 18+ videos, comics, etc. I am straight, but SO-OCD tries to make me think I am not And the thoughts turns to feelings, and makes me scared, uncomfortable, sad, because I know this is not me. And when I try to imagine myself being with the woman on adult videos, and comics, my OCD gives gronal response not at the girl, and it fills me with fear, and anxiety, I always loved, and was attracted to women but I can't and it caused me to be depressed, and I keep ruminating I keep trying to focus on her, but it's so bad that I avoid those all the time now. I am wondering has anyone gone through something like this, or currently is, and wondering how you have done to combat this!

Can hocd create mental feelings or things that resemble inclinations Without a physical response?, but such as arousal and mental attraction, for example, I have so ocd and I'm afraid that I might like women.So, in the last period, when I look at photos of girls, especially beautiful ones, I feel something strange or attracted,sometimes their bodies.And I'm confused as to what that might mean, it's like sexual orientation, is this from me or OCD produced by it?'The feeling is like the feeling of discovering new inclinations and this breaks me, I just want to reconcile with myself in any sexual orientation or identity, but I just can't feel comfortable and reconcile with the fact that I may like women or it may happen in the future.And I have these feelings that telling me messing around the girls would be fun, and I feel something like desire, but I never come to terms with this.. I'm going to be 15 years old, I know, I'm not supposed to think like that, I don't have the right to determine who I am now because im young, and I shouldn't continue to dream of marrying a man..My mind keeps reminding me of the fact that I'm a teenager and the likelihood that everything will change is high, but right now, I'm not asking for anything but rest.I want to love myself and reconcile with her.

I really need help understanding what I’m going through. For a long time now, I’ve been struggling with thoughts and feelings about women that confuse and scare me. Sometimes I feel this strange emotional or mental ‘pull’ toward certain women — it’s not exactly sexual, and not clearly romantic either, but it feels like something, and it triggers deep anxiety. When I see a beautiful woman or a WLW (woman-loving-woman) couple, I feel something that I can’t explain — sometimes I think it’s just admiration or aesthetic appreciation, but OCD keeps telling me: “You felt something, so you must be gay,” or “You’re hiding something.” I get stuck in endless loops, trying to analyze these moments and label them. Even when I feel physical or emotional reactions, they don’t feel natural or aligned with who I am. They feel like a reaction to the idea of women, not real attraction. I try to be honest with myself — I even told a friend I might be bisexual at some point, just to test if that felt more comfortable. But it didn’t. It made things worse, and I felt like I lost touch with who I am. I don’t want to lie to myself or live in denial, but I’m exhausted. It feels like I’m being mentally forced to feel something that isn’t mine. I’m 14, and I understand that things might still be developing, but I can’t help feeling like I’ve always been drawn to men, and never naturally wanted women that way. Still, I keep doubting everything. Is this real attraction or OCD feeding false feelings and thoughts? Can OCD create emotional or mental sensations that feel like desire? I’m so scared that I’ll lose myself, or find out something I never wanted. I just want peace and to feel like myself again.
