Intrusive thoughts stem from fears and your moral system. You may fear disloyalty or infidelity, and hold faithfulness and commitment dearly. If the thought is making you uncomfortable, it’s most likely ocd. Also, if it helps, if you were attracted to the other guy you wouldn’t feel uncomfortable thinking about it :)
hey, i totally get how confusing and frustrating it must feel when your brain keeps pulling you in different directions, especially about something as personal as feelings for someone. 😣 it's tough when your thoughts don't align with what you truly feel in your heart. by the way, have you heard about this new ai-powered ocd therapy tool called "unstuck?" when i was dealing with similar intrusive thoughts that just wouldn't give me a break, this free ai ocd therapy tool (unstuckmyocd.com/try) that my nocd therapist recommended really made a difference for me. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it provides personalized, step-by-step support when ocd tries to mess with your feelings, helping you navigate these uncomfortable thoughts more smoothly, kinda like having an ocd therapist in your pocket. i hate when people promote stuff, but i really think it can help you because it's changed my life. lmk if you have qs or just want to talk more! <3
@thebubblyone Hey! Question, is it free?
For the people who have SOOCD : do you guys ever wander if your false attraction to the unwanted sex is actually what true attraction feels like and what you actually felt for the "wanted sex" wasn't real and was just forced all your life because of society? This thought is currently consuming me because I feel like its true for me... like whenever I imagine a guy it feels like forced attraction but if I imagine any girl it feel true and intense??
Im just so confused about the attraction. I feel like i’ve never really felt sexual attraction towards someone, or maybe i did i just dont remember. I personally dont really think im asexual. Maybe this is reassurance seeking but how does real attraction, or sexual attraction feels like? Im scared that my admiration for woman was actually attraction?😔 even though i had no sexual or romantic fantasies or desires with them. I can tell if a woman is pretty or attractive but i’ve never had any desire to date one. And it scares me. Like what if i’ve never been attracted to a guy? I dont even remember how does it feels like. Im so fu*ked up, like im 20 years old, my last crush was when i was 13 on a guy (even that my ocd makes me doubt) and i have these thoughts since 14. It got me in this early age when everyone around me were experiencing crushes and i DID NOT.
Why is my brain telling me that I wouldn’t mind being a p, that I could live with it and be fine with it, and I am really a p because my situation is too unique…. I didn’t agree with it but I allowed myself to think about this, and it just made me feel like I did agree to it. I’m worried that I’m lying to myself, I really don’t want to turn to into this person, my WHOLE LIFE i was attracted to older people and never ever felt this way until now (false attraction) it makes me so convinced and it puts me in a dark space. It’s hard to think right now.
