Hi, why can’t I answer myself the question if I would act out the thoughts? It seems like most of the other OCD sufferers know, but I don’t

I am lesbian and I get images of oral s*x with men in my head everytime I walk by a male person. I am ashamed now 😢

everytime I get an OCD thought it´s accompanied by a rush of anxiety, that´s how I know it´s an OCD thought and I try to stop it there

I hate that my compulsion more is having to say “I’m straight” to have a normal day. Idk why I feel if I don’t say it I won’t be who I was anymore. It sounds stupid.

How do you know for sure with pocd that the anxiety isn't real. Deep down i know it's not real but my mind says constantly but what if it was? The fake attraction feels really real.

Is it normal to react to intrusive thoughts with like its a realization. I had an intrusive thought the other day and it felt like there was 0 anxiety and it was a realization. Then i got really scared and ruminate about it

Be honest with her and tell her that u suffer from ocd and none of your thoughts are actually yours. If u explain how they scare u and they are intrusive she will know that they mean nothing. U dont even have to be specific just say i get really scary thoughts at times they arent me or anything just a part of ocd but i still feel anxious abt them

I SUFFERED FROM THIS LAST SUMMER!! I would close my eyes and then i felt myself stop to breathe and i wouldnt be able to sleep because i would panic and cry. I told my mom about my problem and i thought it would never go away. She told me that it was just anxiety and i just need to keep my mind occupied. I distracted myself during the day and ignored when the sensations would come at night.

Basically u get these thoughts only about her because u care abt her so much. Ocd attacks what we care about. Ocd can attack anything but it can specifically go towards ppl we love since we care about them so deeply.

Ok listen. U will never know. The fact that u are looking for certainty is just more proof of ocd going on. U are looking for certainty which is impossible. There is legit no certainty in anything. The only thing u can do is chose to treat it as ocd even if it feels wrong and keep going with recovery. Ik its hard as a fellow pocd sufferer it is torture. But u can do it.

Yes keep disregarding. For me i would get alot of images when i would close my eyes to sleep and it scared me so bad until i realized that it was just another tool hocd used to get me to react.

Thats exactly what hocd does. I am a straight female and have only ever been attracted to men but for some reason i would be next to a girl and get these weird sexual images about her. It is so so common u have no idea. At the end of the day though our thoughts mean nothing. We are meant to have junk thoughts and weird thoughts are natural. I used to think hocd thoughts were the end of the world

So basically if u actually wanted to do it u would not spend this much time thinking about it. When i was doing exposures during recovery i watching coming out videos that i avoided watching before and one girl said that she would like to fantasize about girls and then be like i will get that one day and forget abt it until she wanted to fantasize again. Whereas ppl with ocd ruminate about it
