    I need help m happy I'm gay and. Accepted that along time ago but recently women have poped into my head and when I close my eyes I see naked women and I don't like this and its really making me stressed I'm not attracted to women at all I'm there interfering with my sexual fantasy's and my feelings towards men. I don't have any feelings towards women attraction or sexual but why do I see this whe I close my eyes and I'm scared that it's going to change me from being gay and I don't want that.

    Could you be more specific? Why don't you like it? And what way does it make you feel sick? Are you disgusted by the thought of sexual contact with a female?

    The most important thing to remember about thoughts is this: “Thoughts are not reality!”

    Think about it. There are literally thousands upon thousands of thoughts moving in and out of your head all day long. Most of these thoughts have nothing to do with reality and shouldn’t be taken seriously. Most of these thoughts that come and go aren’t “you.”

    The brain is a muscle. It likes to think thoughts constantly. Just because it thinks a thought doesn’t mean the thought is true. In fact, most of them are comical.

    The problem you’re running into is confirmation bias. You’re looking at a thought that popped into your head and then making an attempt to confirm its validity rather than challenging it.

    Instead of trying to prove that every thought you’re having is true, try looking at what sort of objective information might prove that the thought is false.

    For example…

    Are you attracted to women? No.

    Are you attracted to men? Yes.

    Have you ever had sexual relations with a women (outside of a thought!)? I would assume not.

    Don’t accept thoughts at face value. Challenge them and always ask is there is evidence that the thought could be wrong.
