    Hi thank you for this video because I am at a point where I was thinking why i don't because a few weeks ago i had a high drive then all of a sudden it just went and I was so confused because i couldn't last long in the bedroom. Your video helped put my mind at ease

    My sex drive was gone for a whole month and I feel like I completely pushed my partner away. We had alot of stress and fights which did not help the situation either....I lover her with all my heart, I just don't want her to think that I don't want her. I want to fix this problem in general. I am tired of feeling rhia, and I have no outlet or research otherwise. This is as close as I can get.

    I asked my Urologist and he checked my testosterone and said it was to the high side of normal. So I said to him, it must be something that comes with age. In a way, it's kind of a relief.

    Since I was 13 I watch porn, at 21 I became conscious and I was leaving it although with a lot of relapse, but I think I am also addicted to technology, the few days that I manage to disconnect and do physical activity such as going for a run I have noticed a slight increase in libido, but it is still very low, I am 28

    Also, he says that when we experience low sex drive that we should lean into the anxiety and accept uncertainty about our sexual orientation......well then how do we even know if it's OCD. Shouldn't we then just start making out with people of the same sex....? Come out to our parents immediately????
    The very fact that HOCD sufferers (including myself) think and constantly check arousal levels, etc.. and are constantly thinking if we are or aren't homosexual, confirms that we have OCD. That's not enough to stop it though, but we know what it is. A doctor has to know this, a physician has to know this in order to treat it appropriately. ERP is not administered to closeted homosexuals.
    Do you get my point? You have to first accept that this is OCD. Then proceed with ERP honestly. All psychologists have said that this behaviour is OCD. Gay people who first have thoughts of other men are confused because they don't have/ didn't have information on what it is to be gay; due to all sorts of reasons such as growing up in a catholic/ conservative community where there are no gay people/ no gay bars. Or being isolated from people with same interests. An actual Homosexual doesn't check and re-check. THAT'S A BIG POINT!
    A Homosexual does not keep checking arousal levels with people of the other sex.
    HOCD is distinguished with how it starts. It occurs with panic (severe) and a lot of anxiety. When a gay person has homosexual feelings, panic does not happen - even if they're in denial. What does happen is immediate anger. But not panic. They might hate themselves for this, but they don't panic. BIG DIFFERENCE!

      That's the point homie. Choosing uncertainty! Everything you've just written is textbook opposite of how to treat this condition. Don't take it from me. Watch the videos I've posted with two therapists that have been in the field a combined 60 years and literally nearly every other OCD expert on the planet. Plenty of folks who are genuinely confused about their sexual orientation and also have high levels of intolerance of uncertainty and anxiety will spend obsessive amounts of time trying to figure it out. Please don't provide reassurance on my vids. I don't want to be the guy deleting comments but for the sake of the community I will.

I'm going through this myself, I know it doesn't work. You're helping HOCD patients; I respect that. But you have to first admit you have OCD. Regardless of your sexuality...........

      @@chinmay6249 if you're obsessing and doing compulsions you have OCD. End of story. Good therapists all agree that you get in trouble when you use it's just OCD and therefore not a real threat which is exactly what you're doing here. Your post was rife w reassurance! Saying gay people don't do xyz. This is why the internet is a blessing and a curse. Half the content is geared towards doing treatment correctly and the other half is people living in reassurance world not listening to the advice of most experts and all the research that's been conducted.

    Maybe a lot of this is true for some people, I'm at a point what's the use I mean honestly once you get to your sixtys how do you perform like your a 25 or 30 year old man again you can't and no matter how much you try and please a woman who might be 15 or 2o years younger then you and she is a real nympho then you are not going to please her for ling if at all and she will eventually m9ve on and replace you with a younger man who can and will provide her with the hard driving sex she desires
