Quick question, are you on SSRIs or another antidepressant? Those can sometimes affect libido (sex drive).

I ain’t a therapist, but you may just need some time to heal mentally. I used to have some themes around sex, that I eventually overcame, but it still took about a year after that to become comfortable with the idea of dating again. It was also just part of growing up for me too.

@lmaocd🍓🥰 Hmm yeah idk. I overcame my themes (the compulsions, and also did lots of new things so it would make me stop ruminating and take my mind off of it. From that point I didn’t care about my themes and my life was healthy, but I still needed time to get back to reality since my disease took me out of it. That’s just my experience though

i stopped reacting to my thoughts about liking a certain gender. when i would get those thoughts i would ignore them n move on. erp is exposure response therapy if u click on the app here it will explain it to u. it’s doing exercises like writing down “i am attracted to this person” then reading it over and over without doing compulsions or thinking it’s true until u don’t feel anxious.

Hi there! Thank you so much for reaching out on here. I am not an OCD expert, but I have experienced SOO CD as well. Definitely not fun, and I’m glad that you have it under control right now. Try not to put pressure on yourself to feel arousal at this time. Let yourself and your brain do its thing and process how it needs to. I can tell you for certain though, that you are definitely not broken. I’ve felt that before, but OCD does not make us a broken person. Keep up the hard work, you’re doing a great job!

SOOCD
Just tired af... Anyone else feels like everything is a lie all the time and there is no "before the OCD I was boy crazy" just the OCD since forever... or denial because of that aspect? Really struggeling with the physical aspect of SOOCD : looking at a women's body and really feeling something and getting turned on and looking at a man's and not feeling anything... I just dont understand! I asked my friends and many of them said they dont feel anything looking at a man's body as well (they're straight) but also looking at a women's doesnt feel like much. I just dont understand ughhhh

I need this to end.
I’ve completely lost myself. I can’t focus on my studies, I can’t go to the gym. Dang it I can’t 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 don’t feel the same way for guys that I do with girls my mind will always try to make me believe that I am gay. It’s like it’s forcing me into an identity I never asked for. But at the end of the day like my psychologist told me. Sexuality doesn’t change. So since I never felt anything for guys in my life it’s ocd. I’ve been up and down for 5 months now and while the last week I was feeling way better. Monday now and I’m back to zero. I just want to go back when everything was normal. I can’t keep living with this.
