    Thank you for offering to share your experience with OCD. If you don’t mind I want to know if what I’m experiencing is what you experienced when you were going through this. What tricks did you use to overcome OCD? Do you still sometimes get those thoughts? If you don’t feel comfortable with sharing I completely understand. Thank you again for all your help.

    Nar,

    Thank you for responding to me. When you had these thoughts did you experience similar things or was it different from mine. Currently I’m trying my best for the thoughts to not affect me but the question is still there. I can’t get it out of my head. One day I feel great the next i feel horrible again. What exactly did your therapist recommend you do for CBT.

    The problem is I’m only 16 I would need to tell someone to pay or set up an appointment for me and I don’t feel comfortable telling my parents.

    I would want to the only problem is I’m not comfortable telling anyone about this. That’s why I came in here to see if anyone has had similar experiences.

    Anita,

    yes my parent took me to see a doctor. My doctor said there was zero chance of me dying that was enough reassurance that u was fine. But a few years later it came back during summer and I felt the same way again. The thing that I’m going through now reminds me of this. Like written this right now I feel reassured I’m not gay thanks to your first post but the problem is i question myself more and more and that’s when it get really bad again.

    Reading through what i posted I wanted to clarify in more detail what I’m feeling and thinking. When it gets really bad I can’t concentrate on anything but that question. I don’t feel hungry, thirsty, or even tired. I just get really worried and I’m like what if I am actually gay. When I get reassurance from something it doesn’t last very long but i was reading that people suffering for OCD reassurance doesn’t help for long because the question comes back. To be more clear how this started like I mentioned I was playing with someone I thought was a girl later found out she was a boy. At first I was like that’s weird and disgusting and stopped talking then. I started to ask the question am I gay but later dismissed as that’s not true that wouldn’t make any sense. Later the question kept coming back and I couldn’t dismiss the question and its bothered me ever since. I’m really scared that i might be gay but I’ve never thought about any man like that so it doesn’t make sense. It’s really scary and that’s pretty much what I’m going through.

    Hi Anita,

    Thank you for responding yes it’s true this question really sacres me. I can’t concentrate on anything because I feel like I need reassurance. I haven’t posed on other forums because something similar to this has happened to me. I had great anxiety a few years ago thinking there was something wrong with my health I was really sacred but over time it faded away. This feels similar to this but for some reason I can’t let go of these thoughts.
