[This is my first post and I'm not It sure whether this belongs in the ocd forum or some other one, anyway on to the topic at hand

When I was 14 I first started getting thoughts relating to homosexuality (I'm 17 now) and obviously I didn't like them I'd check to see if I was attracted to men and I'd check to see if I was still attracted to women these thoughts would come ...

So I have a very irritating form of OCD that I’ve mentioned in a previous post, that post didn’t get any replies so I’m hoping this one might be different as I need quite a bit of help with it

You see my OCD is weird, let’s say I’m enjoying this book since I love reading, I’ve been reading it for awhile but something really bad happens like I have a mental breakdown one day ...

Hello, I am new here and this is my first time posting. I created my account just to post this. As my username suggests, I have been struggling with HOCD for months now, but I'm afraid that it's not just HOCD at this point. I think that most people with HOCD are actually their desired orientation but for me I don't think that's the case.

I think for me it started around 6 or so ...

I have literally scoured the internet for almost 2 hours looking for a reason why this is happening and I have not found one person going through what I’m going through. Literally not one. You see I’m going through a very specific type of HOCD but I feel like you guys should be able to give me at least some pointers on what the actual hell is going on with me

I feel like my current OCD is unwinable. All my OCDs in the past I have beaten such as germs, skin picking, fear of others dying if i didnt perform rituals, etc by me simply getting burnt out and eventually too tired to care and they went away after months/years.

Hello, I have a question that I'd like to ask you guys.

So, context, I have been diagnosed with moderate-to-severe depression and generalized anxiety.

My question is if I should legitimately consult my phycologist about the next few indicators I've caught on to.

1. There are certain numbers that are "bad". 27 is mean to 24, everyone hates 28, 8 is vulgar and loud, and 6 is despicable. 4 seems mediocre but is really violent. ...

So I saw a post on how people know when they are gay and I felt relieved to see that most people knew since they were a child and through puberty and for me I didn’t have any feelings for men growing up or anything so I thought I was fine, but then I remembered one instance from my childhood

You see when I was around 10-11, I had something called Sky, I think in ...

Okay so background when I was young I had expremint with three different girls in elementary I was very horny but honestly most of it is a blur and cringe uncomfy i never once thought I was gay because I had no feeling for these girls we would just make out and I don’t even remember it okay so I went on being straight till quarantine hits I got a thought what if I’m actually ...

Having OCD?

Often times I’ve wondered what it means to be OCD, or have OCD? When someone comes walking past frustrated and says “ Argh! I’m so OCD with that?” What do they really mean? Has it become a blasé way to just pass the time with a frustration? Or Speak out in a way that other people understand? And here perfectly lies the problem with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
The obsession over almost everything. You’ll ...
