Hi, can I ask some question about HOCD ? Specially on the loss of aesthetic attraction to women and how to make it come back.
Three years ago, I was affected by a classic HOCD. Intrusive thoughts, constant anxiety, fear of being in denial/becoming gay, and all that kind of stuff. I managed to get through it on my own, in about a year. Everything got better for about two weeks, and then, overnight, I lost my ability to find women beautiful (my aesthetic attraction). The anxiety was very low and even disappeared, but nothing came back in two years... I think about it, hope it will come back and look a images of girls everyday. I know those things are compulsions and I have to stop it but, apart from this, what can I do to make my aesthetic attraction to women back ?
I'm really afraid that because of the length of time I've lost my aesthetic attraction due to HOCD, it won't fully return, do you know if is that possible ?
Do you know how I get my aesthetic attraction to women back to the way it was before? I'm really afraid it's never going to go back to the way it was before... I miss so much finding girls beautiful (especially the ones I thought were beautiful before all this happened...)
Please help me.
