Yep! I get the "I'm gay" or whatever else thought and sometimes the depersonalization of that as well. It's like my OCD convinces me that I suddenly don't care about my husband at all anymore and just need to go be gay.

I have this same thought but reversed. I really believe i am gay but my brain is constantly telling me I’m wrong and I’m probably straight after all and that I shouldn’t come out because then I’ll just have to tell everyone I’m actually straight when I come to my senses

OH MY GOSH! I’m literally always having this thought. And it makes me feel like I’m in denial. I will feel happy about anything and all if a sudden my brain says “I’m gay”. I’m having a relaxing moment (finally) and listening to music and my brain will do the same thing. Then it just throws me into a ODC spiral.

I’m trying to live with uncertainty but it doesn’t feel right. The “I may or may not be bi/gay” really sucks because I can’t stop ruminating, analyzing, or checking. This especially sucks because I feel like literally EVERYTHING in my life leads to the fact that I’m a fraud which feels horrible. I can’t even talk to my friends the way I used to without feeling like I’m lying about myself. The false attraction and loss of attraction to men is literally horrible because now I feel like the life i fantasized for myself isn’t something I want.

I had a bad rumination spiral yesterday and went to bed hoping I’d start over in the morning. I was wrong. I had dreams about liking women and not being attracted to men anymore and my entire body has been in a state of anxiety since. I genuinely feel like I’m gay and just need to accept it. I have this urge to accept it. Maybe if I do I’ll get some sort of relief because this feeling is awful. I feel like my brain is telling me that I’ll get relief if I just accept it and come out. The intrusive thoughts don’t even seem to be around sexual images anymore, just to come out.
