Do I have hocd? Please help!!

Postby Scared456 » Wed Feb 06, 2013 6:46 am

Hi. I am female and a teenager. This all started about 2 years ago when I thought this one girl was pretty. I started to think I was bisexual (since I've had crushes on guys before) but then didn't think much about it. I've had other instances where I would start to think 'am I bisexual' especially when my parents joked around that my brother is gay (hes not) but I forgot about them.

Fast forward to this year, I began thinking more and more about my sexuality. Then when I was on holiday, I suddenly started having these major panic attacks thinking that I really was bisexual. The thought would haunt me everyday and once I even cried myself to sleep. I couldn't concentrate on anything and some days it even got so bad that I couldn't eat a lot or i would throw up and my family would ask me if I was ok or feeling bad. I also started doing extensive research on bisexuals/gays. Towards the end of my holiday I started asking myself questions and whenever I saw a girl I would get this weird feeling and If I though she was pretty I would start asking my self 'would i date her' , 'am i attracted to her' and every time I'd get scared and try to
Get the thought out of my mind. I repeatedly told myself that I was not bisexual/lesbian until I felt better but this little voice would say that i am and I'd get scared all over again.

I used to imagine myself with guys and getting married and having kids and everything but now it seems like I like girls more and I'm really scared by that. Then I read a post about how someone got over hocd and they said that only straight people would fear people being gay and gay people fear being straight and now I'm really scared that I'm bisexual/lesbian because when I tell my slef I am straight, I get another weird feeling. I also lately haven't been having the symptoms of hocd and again I get scared that I'm lesbian. I'm also really nervous writin this post right now because I'm scared someone will say that I am bi/lesbian. Please help!!
