How To Get Rid Of Homosexual Feelings?

Sir, i am a medical student from Pune. I am going through a big problem. Since i am 12, i've always had a feeling of sexual attraction towards the same sex. i used to think that as the age progresses i'll be normal. I am 21 now, but still there are no changes. Infact my body has shaped out in quiet a feminine pattern, onto it i've got a crush over one of my best friend of same sex. Now all these things make me feel so conjusted. I couldnt expect my parents to understand this. Many times i feel like getting my sex changed. But what about my parents then, they wont be able to cope up with it. Also the boy whom I am in crush with is straight and he doesnt feel anything like this. All these worries and excessive sexual desperation for that person, not only deprive me off the concentration in my studies but also I am unable to live happily!! Please help i'll really be thankful to you!!

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Sexual fantasies are common but they are against social values. You must understand that there is nothing wrong in feeling attracted sexually with the same sex. Everybody has to go through such a state in their life. But why you are worrying about it? Worrying and escapism makes that thought to be present always and makes you anxious and stressed, as you are now. Learn to ignore such thoughts. Accept what you are now and believe everything will change in future. You are just 21 and there could be another 5 years before your marriage. Things settle within 5 years.

Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
