I must be slowly improving at least. I tried to watch this a few weeks ago but I couldn't because I couldn't get over thinking I was attracted to Elliot in the video, here. Managed to watch it all the way through this time round.

Hey man, first of all great video, really related to pretty much everything. The thing im currently stuck on, is that thing you mention about over analyzing the way you walk, move, talk, gestures ,etc. I have this moments where I "catch" myself doing gestures, you know, hand gestures or motions, sometimes how im sitting, that feel completely alien to me, and with it it comes this idea that my mind is somehow changing and subconsciously adapting to my "new personality" or whatever. Any tips on how to work on this? Should I just disregard it completely regardless of how effeminate I feel it looked? Also, when this kind of thing happens, I get this urge, I guess, to repeat that motion, or repeat the frase that sounded off to, to double check, and to like, "correct" whats bothering me, anybody relates?

@@leslietheunissen7847 Hey bro sorry to hear that, I know how bad it sucks. This particular thing really wore off with time, it happens now and then but very little and it doesnt bother me, I realized it was really in my head. With that being said, im kinda back in a bad loop, really struggling with attraction right now, feels like my "compass" is off, can´t tell which attractions feel real and which dont, and the confusion really hurts. A few months back I could tell the difference between them, but now its all very fuzzy, and of course ocd is throwing all kinds of thoughts,. This past weekend I went to a big party, and half of the time I was trying not to make eye contact with people cause I was too worried I was gonna have a reaction and panic, after a while I was able to sit with it and enjoy myself, but I still remember the struggle. We gotta keep fighting brother, just remember we are not alone in this

@@leslietheunissen7847 Man it sucks so bad. Not even sure its ocd anymore, cant tell if im recovering, getting worse, or what is going on. I haven't dated in over a year, im just too uncertain about myself to imagine a succesful relationship. Everytime I try to think about it I get mixed feelings, sometimes I feel good about it, sometimes off, images of both men and women cross my mind, thoughts of "am I bi?" "Am in denial?" rushing in. Im trying to stick to my values and to what I always dreamed of, but it get tough sometimes. Glad you have somebody with you, its okay to seek comfort with her but be careful about chasing reassurance. The key with ocd is to sit with the discomfort, let it be there and live the life you want. Easier said than done of course, I keep trying everyday

@@leslietheunissen7847 Man its so crazy, this weekend I was struggling badly with the attraction thing, but during the week libido came back and Im seeing women as beatiful as ever, and not getting nervous around men, so im happy with that and surprised at how fast things change, its like im used to the constant shifts but stills catches me by surprise sometimes. Like you said, we stick to the shit we want and go from there. Also praying for you bro, feel free to come back to this comment if things gets tough, ill be here.
