I'm going to a psychologist next week

I'm going next week and I'm really scared they gonna tell me I'm gay and it's not OCD and that I need to accept it, I'm scared that they'll think I'm in denial I'm so so scared. I'm scared I'm gonna have to be with a woman after the therapy I love my boyfriend I want everything to stay the way it's always been I'm terrified

She gave me a sheet and told me to write my feelings down when I do my exposure, she told me to touch the things that have been touched by gay people and ignore the anxiety and let my thoughts just be there as I was always anxious to touch things that have been touched by bi people

I had my first cbt today she said that I'm straight and that it's impossible for me to anything other than that and my worries are just in my head. I feel so good

That's great news.  You will continue to see her correct to really get the CBT down?

Don't be afraid.  It is all part of the process.  You need to go to therapy to get better and I promise you that they are not going to tell you you are gay.
