Well, i have had ocd my whole life, as well as anxiety. it is very hard to deal with, anyways i began to question my sexuality, for a stupid reason i do not want to get into. anyways, i saw a guy, and i got anxiety, and then got an erection. heres the problem i don't know if it happened because i was attracted to the guy or if it was my anxiety. I get erections from my anxiety whether it has to do with something sexual or not. I was not sexually aroused and did not feel attracted. but what do you guys think? How an i stop worrying about this and thinking worst case scenario?

Yes your right !! Ik it was from my anxiety. It's so hard to get through. That's the bad part where ocd comes in. Anyways to settle this i need to solve worst case scenario. So say it was because of the guy. Can I label that as just curious? Either way then I can put it to rest. But I need opinions.

The fact I was like "omg did I think he was good looking?" Then that was my only thought, then I was focusing on if I would get an erection and obviously I did because I was worrying about my anxiety and erection more than I thought about the guy and all that! It was a fast image of a guy on tv !

Okay, if you did think the guy was attractive then that may indicate you might be bi-curious. If he was a fine specimen of maleness and healthy looking then there'd be nothing wrong with admiring that. If a person is very attractive others will notice them whether they're straight, bi or gay.
I don't want to get too personal but how easy is it for you to get you an erection from everyday events? I only ask because that may be a key as to whether it was sexual or just reactionary to some other emotions/thoughts.
If it hasn't happened before then maybe it was just a fluke and you'll forget about it in a few days/weeks.

VERY often, it gets very annoying, especially since i always have anxiety from stuff like i can worry about dying and get the same exact erection LOL. sometimes i will get like 10 or 20 within 3 hours, it starts to hurt lmao. And i actually believe that i was getting and erection already beofre the image of the guy, so the anxiety i got just added to it.

If it's that often then I'd say it's too early to tell either way, my advice is to not dwell on it and see if it happens again in the near future. If the anxiety is becoming problematic then perhaps see your doctor, he/she may be able to help. That or try taking up meditation/yoga, laying off caffeinated drinks (if you drink them) and high sugar foods.
I hope this helps with your thoughts on the topic!
