Dear Tara:

First thought that comes to my mind is that it will be a very good idea if you don’t watch any kind of porn from this point on. You may very well suffer from OCD, like you suggested, an OCD that is focused on your sexual orientation at this point, so you don’t need any more porn triggers to fuel this current obsession that it troubling you so much.

“do these thoughts alone make me bisexual/ lesbian”?- no.

Do this exercise- think to yourself: I am an eagle.

– are you?

You had a thought (I am an eagle), but that didn’t make you an eagle. Similarly, the thought I am bisexual/ lesbian, doesn’t make you these things either.

I suffered from OCD for many years, so I will be glad to offer you what I know and learned about the disorder.
