Same here but I am not yet in recovery. I know how debilitating it is!! OCD is really good at its job of making us question everything that’s important to us. Some days I can handle it and some days I am going down a rabbit hole on the internet trying to re-convince myself that “it’s really ocd”. You are so not alone

Hi there! Thank you so much for reaching out on here. Have you started ERP with a NOCD therapist? I’ve been exactly where you are and I understand that it’s so tough. Keep in mind the groinal arousal. Our bodies experience anxiety where we also feel arousal (which is so annoying with OCD!). Working through ERP exercises are distressing, but it truly helps in the long run. Keep it up—you are strong!

Sounds like ocd to me if this is causing you so much stress. If this is something you actually wanted, you would actually want it. OCD is really good at confusing us and making us question literally everything. Hang in there

This shit has to be one of the most confusing subtypes of ocd because no matter what you will never find clarity. When it started it wasn’t as bad and confusing because it was mostly anxiety. But when it started getting physical that’s when it got extremely confusing because I feel tension and fear when thinking of gay stuff but while testing I get arousal sensations so the big question is “if I am afraid of it how can my body respond as if I’m into it and if I’m into it how does my body respond with fear as if I’m not” and it’s endless. I wish I never started testing my arousal so I never started getting groinals to gay stuff in the first place. But there’s no going back now.

Is anyone here actually gay and has/had sexuality or religious ocd? I don't have it at all haha I'm a lesbian myself without socd or religious ocd but I'm just curious: what's it like and how did you deal with the whole "biggest fear coming true" thing?

I have a lot of trouble with my sexuality. I’ve been trying to figure out my sexuality for years. I’ve dated a man, and I wasn’t really into the whole time. And since then I’ve thought that maybe I’m a lesbian because I’m attracted to women, which I know for sure. But then my brain spirals, I constantly think back ti memories with my ex, how I felt with him, I check how it makes me feel. I often google to see if other lesbians have felt similar, I ask ChatGpt over and over again. I feel like I have to be 100% certain or that im faking for attention, or thst I’ll end up with a man. I guess im wondering has anyone else felt like this ? What’s been your experience how do you manage it?
