Gender Identity Crisis, Attracted To Men, In Love With A Girl. How Can I Get Over This?

Good day Doc, Please help me, I really need someone to talk to if there is any solution to the problem that I am having right now. I am suffering from a gender identity crisis and I m really confused with myself. I m a male and in a relationship with my girlfriend for almost 3 years. I love my girlfriend but it seems that I am attracted to men. I don t know what s wrong with me. I really need help. What are the things that I need to do. I don t have any experience with male to male intimate relationship coz I am controlling myself and I don t want to cheat my girlfriend coz I love her very much. I just want to become straight guy doc. Thank you and I hope you ll give me useful answers and recommendations pertaining to my problem. Thank you so much and more power.

Hi mysteryman123185.

Thanks for your questions.

You are suffering from gender identity disorder where a male/female thinks his/her mind as opposite sex and they attract with person of same sex.But actually why it happens no body knows and we dont have any preventive measure for that neither we have any drug to control them.
The best therapy is psychoeducation or psychological counselling and that help a lot to cope up with the problem so please visit a psychiatrist and tell your problem in detail,he will surely help you.

Best wishes.
