Chris, enough has been said on this message board already for answers, but if that isn't helping, you need to go get help. Doctors for meds and therapy. don't suffer when you may not have to.

I get that "need to tell" feeling constantly. And you are definatley not alone in your gay ocd, it's terrifying at first but just know that people are here for support.

What kind of things is it that you feel you need to tell?

I think this is not untypical for OCD. Actually I have had it myself too. The need to tell is the obsession, and then telling would be the compulsion, right?

Are you in therapy for OCD?

yes i guess it would be the compulsion, i havent thought of that yet, like when i am in social situations with my friends i have this uncomftorable feeling of "the need to tell" what i am thinking i guess , i dont know and no i am not in therapy, i dont really know what steps to take, and i am on medication, Paxil and Zyprexa. thanks for the advice everyone
