    I can’t express how much respect and balls this man has to share his story. I have NEVER heard of this until today and let me tell you. I’m deep diving and my mind is fcking blown. I just want to hug you and tell you I see what you’ve been through and give you respect.

    He may be taking a lot of to handle with this shit of HOCD. I'm still on the way to get under this sickness, but with CBT and therapy and meds I'll be ok, hopefully

    I get it therapist have certain style of treating patients but when therapist give this secular advice that it’s totally fine if you were gay your life can still be enjoyable you can still have this great life have a good sex life etc etc because there our truly a lot of people who don’t want that change who don’t want to be gay who do my want to be bi
    But those thoughts and fears of feeling like your getting pulled into living a life you don’t want t live is scary.
    I’m a Christian believer and what people decide to do with their life it’s their choice but giving the advice to people who literally do NOT want to be anything else but straight and telling them that your life won’t be over if you come to terms that you may have been living a lie and that being gay is totally fine.. yea sure there are many people out there who don’t mind being gay and living that lifestyle but there are also MANY WHO DONT want to live that way at all.

      Your sexuality change isn’t something that is just “random” it’s not something where you wake up one day and have this desire to have sex with guy then next day have sex with girls then next day be sexually attractive to trees
      Your sexuality is very hardwired
      Dont look stuff up about sexuality your gonna see so much stuff that’s going to just have you going crazy. If sexually changes were just “random” we would all be doomed. It’s not something that just gets stripped away from us randomly. There’s reason behind sexuality changing.. nobody wants to talk about that part. Secular teaching just wants to say that oh now you’re just realizing or discovering new things.. no. That’s wrong. Because I can tell you right now someone with HOCD does NOT want to discover and is not searching or “exploring” but rather dealing with this fear.. when deep down we know who we are we know it but that’s all being clouded by hocd. Trust me you’re not alone.. but don’t believe and buy into everything you read online. Good luck.

      @@kyletucker4594 that comment your coworker made has simply NOTHING I mean NOTHING to do with you or your sexuality.
      How does your sexuality have anything to do with a comment someone made a funny comment at that?
      It’s unnecessary to have to watch videos of guys kiss. It’s pointless because idk about you but I wouldn’t want to watch guys kiss period I wouldn’t want to watch guys do anything sexual I’m good off all of that.
      Sometimes you have to stop and ask yourself would I really want to watch these videos before the start of your hocd ? Would you enjoy these videos, and I’m not taking about being all discussed just simple not watching to watch it because it’s not your cup of tea if the answer is no.. then no need for you to be exposing yourself to stuff like that it’s pointless.
      Like I would never ever ever want to go to a gay bar I wouldn’t think twice to go to a bar bar, I have zero business being at a gay bar.
      And even with my hocd I still wouldn’t go.
      Because it would make me uncomfortable for the simple fact that .. I’m at a gay club and I know I don’t want to be there.. I’m out place here. I wouldn’t want guys to start staring at me or trying to flirt with me. I’m good off that.
      Some exposures really be crazy..
      but I’m here to say that that comment had. Nothing to do with your sexuality it just send your brain into panic. But you’re going to be okay. Expose yourself to your thoughts
      When you notice a bird in the sky flying by you see, notice it and let it go by and move on right ? Do the same with your thoughts no matter how terrible they are just think of them as birds just tell yourself oh there’s another dumb though, whatever and continue doing you whatever it is. Don’t spend time and time and time on those thoughts do not give them any more time! You can’t stop whatever thoughts pops in your mind, but you do have control over how you respond to them.
      The process to recovery is always going to be hard before it gets easier but trust me there’s light at the end of the tunnel.
      Good luck!
