    Hi fairly new on here but meh ill get to the point. Ive been watching/using porn or whatever for a long ass time since i could cum and gone through some weird genres from time to time and mainly used straight porn (im straight btw) and recently got more and more into the trans end of the scale and it slowly became more and more appealing and it started to get to the point where it was basically just men in womens clothes, then phillip schofield came out and made me question - shit am i gay? Since then ive not been able to get it out of my mind. I also met a girl around the same time which is making things worse because it makes me question, do i really like her? Am i gay? Etc. All my life ive considered myself straight never found any men attractive or anything, had a few girlfriends etc.
    How can i get out of this cycle, i feel that if i dont try something now itll just mount up and get worse and worse. Cheers for reading if you did :)
    Just thought id add ive not been to see any specialists or anything, ive practically self diagnosed myself with hocd, not a clue if this is adding to the stress or anything but it sure does seem like it from what people are describing it like

    Thanks a lot for that, do you think that the overuse of porn itself can cause you to be less attracted to women sexually all together or could this be part of the anxiety that this shit gives off because im finding that im sorta losing my sex drive in a way

    Porn use and jerking off first leads to less attraction to women then to hocd and eventually homosexuality

    Fuckinellll dont go sayin that how many years down the line are we talkin here cos im only 17
    Ive also read up on many sites that HOCD cant turn you gay it is just the continuous fear of becoming gay, which in my case was caused by this porn that made me realise im getting to the point where i need to stop

    listen mate, take it from me, i been pmo since i was 13, im now 35, thought i was gay for 16 years! Fuckin 16 years of freakin out, panic attacks and bustin to the fantasy of gay sex -eveb acted on it once and didn’t like it, but even then, the fantasy still called to me.

    I’ve seen the light, recognised chronic porn use has hijacked my brain and what was normal is now triggered by different things. To get back to normal my brain has to walk all the way back to normal, its a long way back mate and it’s bound to get lost along the way, confusion is part of recovery and working this shit out. Keep going, and you will get the insight and epiphany’s you need the longer you go without PMO.

    goof luck
