When i was 11 i did somethg kda gay wasn’t sex or anythg like that was jt like a touch (not a pedophile way) i didn’t like at all and I’ve been straight all my life sce that happened and i regret dog that i don’t even know why i would do and im sure im not gay and i always have to repeat myself that im not gay i get imag my head i dont want and i nt go out bee i feel someone might see me gay or that i would act feme i nt look at people of the same sex at the face i had sex many tim i enjoyed all the time. The only logil explanatn I have is that due to some sexual abe by another male my childhood, I associated what happened as “gay”, and now nstantly worry that bee of the var thgs that happened and the fact that I was plic them, I was eher gay or aaid that people would fd out what happened to me and would thk I was gay. I am 18 years old (first year at uni), when i was around 14 someone asked me if i was a lbian and i remember gettg really anx and eakg out, after that i didnt stop thkg about , and eventually broke down tears to my mum; and i nt really remember what she said but she was okay wh , i did go to a therapist (not for this, but for other reasons) and i refed to talk to her about beg gay bee i was terrified she would tell me that i was.
Anyway fast forward four years and i got my heart broken (i thk, not sure if i was love, but i have never been so hurt by someone before), and on top of that i was on youtube one day and randomly clicked on a g out vio (i dont have a problem wh gay people, although i did when i was 14 – i wouldnt watch films wh gays etc. Although this went away when the thoughts about beg gay stopped) and he started talkg about how he knew he was gay, and my heart dropped and i started feelg anx believg that this was what i had thought when i was 14, and maybe i am a lbian and have been lyg to myself sce (i then remembered how when i was makg out wh my ex i asked myself once if i was really attracted to him). My ncern is thkg of my future wh her, I very much see her as someone I want to spend the rt of my life wh but this creat all sorts of qutns…if I am ternalised homosexual and we marry and have children what the affect will be then, I’ll not jt be g my life and hers but brgg children to the suatn mak so much more plited.
Anyway I was dog fe, I was gettg back to my old self whout doubts and then I heard somethg that ma me spike, a gay person said that people who are gay might not know they’re gay but fear that they’re gay and not know of when they’re young, was basilly this and that eaked me out bee I obssed about beg a lbian when I was 13 jt bee I had lost tert my current csh at the time and started to thk why did I stopped likg him and then bam “omg do this mean I don’t like boys anymore” was jt that and I obssed about over a few months and then when stopped I ntued to love boys but after that sometim if I remembered that I ed to obss about that I would fear that I would get obssed about that aga and that I was ed a lbian.
THIS IS WHAT ’S LIKE TO BE A GAY MAN WH OCD WHILE STILL THE CLOSET
That ’s really what fuels my anxiety bee I keep thkg that if I had this before mt mean somethg and the fact that I had this at young age 13/14, as I said before I ntiued to like men and I never had a csh on a girl or somethg but sce that time I feared that one day I’m gog to fd out that I’m gay or somethg and that I’ll never be able to be wh or appreciate men aga. Up until march of this year my sexualy was never even a qutn i jt knew i was straight always yearng and havg a lt for women, but march i got this fleetg thougt “what if i was gay” i was so eaked out i ulnd’t eat for a week and after a month or so of alg wh this i learned what HOCD was and i thought “thats what i have”.
This persists even when I’m not the ‘thro of OCD qutng, ’ and they ually do not pose a ‘signifint’ problem except that they are persistent as a hard-wire to my sexualy – then once every year or so, I get ught up this orientatn crisis bee my fantasi are so nsistently ‘homosexual, ’ almost exclively, really – so ’s liked mixed signals all the time. I really didn’t want to say this, but sometim i lerally s down at work and say “you know what, i’m gay, i n accept , my iends and fay may never speak to me aga, i’ll fd new people that will, my ex girliend will probably go mental thkg she was datg a guy who all hont didn’t know he was the closet, but she’ll jt have to accept that” and then like 5 mut later s like i’m tellg myself “you’re not gay, how n you thk that, when was the last time you thought a guy was hot or you wanted to do somethg wh a guy, stop beg stupid” and then the endls cycle ntu. I keep feelg strsed out all day everyday and n’t get peace at anytime I jt want to be happy, I’ve suffered this sce a young age I am now 26, the thg that really nf me is I get thoughts that I start thkg I enjoy the fantasi so I strs more and repeat the rual my head over and over to see if I get aroed by which I always end up feelg worse, I only fancy women and don’t fancy men but seem fixated on penis and that I mt enjoy the thoughts but on the other hand I love women and don’t want to spend my life wh a man and would never ever want to hold hands or kiss one, I’m sorry about gog on about this but I jt n’t stop thkg about , I worry about everythg and I mean everythg om health to money to beg like this forever but ’s the hocd if is that that gets me down the most, I want to be wh a woman but I feel wh the thoughts that I am gog to jt have to be gay to somehow have a life that I don’t want.
But i have never once pursued a guy my wakg life or sired to be wh the same sex, but i noticed i was checkg my reactns around men i uldnt talk to my guy iends or be the same room whout feelg unfortable, i would get massive anxiety about sudnly beg gay and givg up my relatnship and marriage, g my home life, etc and every so often would go away and i would be fe only for the anxiety to return is there even anythg here even remotely gay?
