Obsessive thoughts taking a toll on my life

[concernedfemale88]

Hi there,
I'm giving a more detailed response to my 1st question.

Facts: I'm a 25 yo female and I've had OCD tendencies since I can remember.
I will make sure the house is locked like 3 times before feeling reassuredand if I'm doing book-keeping I check the banking like 3 times. I also suffer from anxiety and suffer from thinking about illnesses that I may have etc. I can tolerate this but this week I have thought about a topic I would have never imagined to think about....

This is the problem, I've been boy crazy since I was 12, and have been in love and gained crushed very easily with guys only!!!!
There was a movie and to my surpise there were 3 girls having an orgy on the scene....
I can't stop thinking about it now, and I'm paranoid I'm going to become gay because I can't stop thinking of that image in my head!!!

Its not possible to become gay after exposure is it?
Or is it my mind playing the OCD terror on me?
I have no interest in ever being with a girl and thinking about it is causing extreme anxiety because I'm worried something is now wrong with me.

Yes I know but is this normal what I'm going through?

getting help from a professional is that what u should do

[concernedfemale88]

So there is nothing I can do? Why is this happening to me?

u cant stop thinking due to with  high amount of anxiety these thoughts are striking, leave the problem and go for solution, look for a pychiatrist/pychologist for medicine and therapy, it wont get better on its own

I'm not taking anything. Is this normal? I've never like a girl ever but now I can't stop thinking about it :(

this is very common form of ocd, first tell about  medication ur taking and any therapy u have taken
