OCD, as we know, is largely about experiencing grave and unrelenting challenge. It can lead to you to disbelief even the most basic things about yourself – even your sexual orientation.

At one point, he told me that no one else was around and that I could swim in the pool, naked, if I wanted. I said 'screw it' and did.
