And I just can not be without my mental compulsions. It is so hard and makes me so anxious because later it makes me feel that I have done something I don't remember

I always feel like I have done something and I don't remember it now. Maybe in the moment when intrusive thought came I acted on it or I felt that I should act on it.

Hi everyone I hope y'all doing good. So I will tell my story and I hope I will get some help. I'll be 18 years old soon and for one hear now I have HOCD. It all started when I saw a gay on tik tok and for a moment I thought the whole World fall on me. I just heared a voice telling me I am lesbian too.

I cried I got anxiety and since that day I know its fake but I have that anxiety that doesen't let me alone. Since little I suffered from anxiety and kind of little obsessions like : omg are them Talking abt me, or if someone texts me I worry like Omg what this person is gonna tell. I have been in couple for almost 3 years with a guy who cheated on me and it destroyed me tbh.

And I still love him though and only when I am with him I dont feel at all the HOCD. Now that we no longer talk tgth, I started Talking to someone else but still I love him. I work alot at school, I am studying as an juridical assistante and is hard so Sometimes I even get distant with my female friends because I have anxiety.

I know I am not gay but It feels true and it gives me anxiety even when I write the word gay omg. Sometimes even the ocd themes change. I have hocd, Sometimes a fear of confessing any Secret, Sometimes religious ocd, I feel like I should wear a hijab or like God doesen't love me and so on.

I am getting kind of better, I think sooner I will be recovered but Just on the momnt when I think It's over I start obsessing about the throughts again. My bestie told me she is bisexual and I just stay away from her because it kinda bothers and gives me anxiety.

That's how I became homophobic . Please guys please please help me because Sometimes I even ask my self " what if I am" and that s**t hurts. I have no sibilings I only live with my both parents. I have everything but I always wanted to have a brother and Sometimes I cry by myself for being the only child because I have noone to talk to.

Hi Elsa, you need to reduce how much time you are spending on ruminating about this stuff. You need to make a brave choice to reduce rumination. I promise you it's all OCD but as long as you are powering it up it's going to continue to bother you.

I’ve been struggling w this off and on for like 3ish years and I j want to get it fully under control. I always think it’s over w I do the work then forget about it or at least I think it’s gone then it will come back out of nowhere how can I completely get rid of it and assure it doesn’t come back.

you need to actually track and have daily rumination reduction goals.

as long as it helped you refuse, but this is also kind of a compulsion, you can use it as an aid but at some point you need to get away from it.

this kind of figuring things out is also OCD

Hey Ali, I have to say that your YouTube channel has been a really good help for me. I started seeing a coach for OCD around November, and starting ERP in January I feel like I’m at the final stage of it. I’m just concerned about my urge to salivate. I have other feeling based sensations but salivating is just one that I am very peculiar about. Do you have any suggestions or reasons to why it

ya sure,actually i have had hocd for past 2 months and now i am feeling better but the only thing that is disturbing me is few of the move scenes which involve things about g*y so its on the lighter half,the half that is disturbing me the most is that my attention was constantly being moved to the private parts of any person of same s*x(male) going by ,even though i have literallly no interest
Ali Greymond
Can you give more detail?

OK so I'm in recovery and I was doing really well but why does my head keep telling me that I'm in denial... Why am I so scared of a re with the opposite s*x why does intimacy seem so weird and foreign to me.... I just want to go back to normal why is it trying to convince me so much.... I'm so tired I've been dealing with this for 10 months

Hello Ali, I think I might be suffering from Straight OCD. I identified as Lesbian two years ago and for the last month I‘ve been getting a lot of sexual images of male persons and I always question myself „Do you want to do a sexual action with that person?“ And I can’t answer the question. It really feels like I am attracted to men now. How can I tell if this is just OCD?

Hey ali im a male and have been suffering with this hocd for a few weeks and its gotten better, the intrusive thoughts aren't as bad but i can say things like im gay and it not bother me but in reality i have no desire or sexual attraction to other men. I've always been sexually attracted to women my whole life. Now i just feel asexual. This is normal? Is it part of the recovery process?
