“HOCD”, short for “Homosexual OCD”, is the term ed for a theme of Obssive Compulsive Disorr which the sufferer has obssns—unwanted tsive thoughts—surroundg their sexual orientatn.
I will be g the term “HOCD” throughout this article to discs obssns of those who intify as heterosexual and have relentls doubts about whether or not they are gay. A more reprentative way to scribe the obssns is “Sexual Orientatn OCD” bee OCD n latch onto anyone’s sexualy, whether that be someone who intifi as gay or queer or asexual.
Furthermore, as sexual obssns of OCD n be about perverse ntent (fear that one is a pedophile or unwanted thoughts about ct), the term “Homosexual OCD” impli that homosexualy is perverse.

* difference in gay and hocd *
The way many clients scribe is that they had a good sense of their heterosexual orientatn and then randomly had an tsive thought such as “what if you’re gay?
HOCD is not to be misnsted wh nial or sexual reprsn, as those who are reprsg their te sexualy know that they are attracted to the same sex but ph away, often due to shame that om livg a heteronormative and homophobic world. The realy is that we live a very heteronormative world, which is reflected through mastream media showsg heterosexual relatnships, lack of diversy polics, relig groups that nounce homosexualy and claim—wh zero evince—that gay folks will go to hell, and laws that enable discrimatn agast the LGBTQIA+ muny.
Due to the overwhelmg amount of men postg on here wh irratnal fears that they are gay, and I have never read so many different fom posts on the same exact topic by the way, I thought I would make a post of my experience both wh beg the closet as a homosexual and my sexual obssns alg wh Obssive Compulsive Disorr. This will help men sufferg om HOCD to pare what they are gog through wh the different suatns that a gay man and a sexual obssn sufferer endured so they n see the difference. It is irratnal to thk that jt bee I get along wh kids and want to be wh them that means I am sexually terted , jt as is irratnal for you to thk that bee you are eher more feme that most guys, strike out wh girls sometim, or sometim lose tert girls you once found attractive that you might be gay.
