Hello ,
I suffer from OCD and for the past year have been paralyzed by intrusive thoughts I am transgender. I am 21 year old male, gay but have never had a trans thought my entire life. These thoughts are debilitating and have taken over my life. I am on meds (2 1/2 months) however thoughts are still there. I feel there is no hope for me and I will suffer my entire life. I am in counseling and it was suggested I face my fear and try drag. Really??? My mother is very against this idea as it may feed my obsessive thoughts rather than starve them. What do I do? Any suggestions? Thank you.
