I am 16 and I am predominantly straight but I have those occasional gay thoughts which spark confusion. They are kind of a neusence. I even thought I was bisexual for a few months until I realized that I hadn't liked any guys in my whole life and I was relieved to know I was straight but now I still have some gay thoughts. How can I block them? I went to a site called GovTeen, which is a terrible site which encourages sexual immorality for the sake of "discovering yourself" and they told me that I should do things with a guy and see how things pan out but I never did.

The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

How do I deal with homosexual thoughts?
- Thread starter ILoveJesusAndAmerica
- Start date
Hi, we all have our tendencies. Mine is overeating. I also have been tempted by porn and such, but we have to make the decision to flee from those things which will ultimately destroy us. God's guidelines are there to protect us, not keep us from having fun and the homosexual lifestyle is dangerous and destructive. Being gay is a choice. Even if you have a tendency toward wanting something sinful doesn't mean its not a choice. I may be prone to violence but does that make it right? Of course not. You must make a choice to flee from this temptation in your life and not fall into the lie of thinking you were born gay, or that its something you can't help. You CAN help it and you can make the Godly choice.
Whatever you do, don't feed that sexual drive. Don't ever allow yourself to look and lust after others. Pray for Gods help and find people in your life you can be honest with about your temptations. Praying for you.

When these thoughts plauge you finding a distraction is the best course of action. There is no super special way to fight homosexual thoughts. Just simply being determined to fight them and look to something else is important. If these thoughts are just occasional and not compelling then the main concern may be your anxiety about your thoughts. Just don't obsess over ending the confusion or let your time be taken up by worying about it, this being said; if your thoughts turn to fantasies and you burn with lust, don't hesitate to seek help. Farewell!
