Struggling with unwanted thoughts — seeking sincere advice

Assalamu alaykum.

I'm reaching out because I'm struggling with something that's been weighing on me heavily. I have intrusive thoughts related to homosexuality and they distress me a lot. I want to move toward what is halal and what pleases Allah and I want my desires to align with that.

The thing is, because of these thoughts, I can't really perform with women either it's affecting me in that way too and I feel stuck. I want to be able to have a normal, halal relationship but I don't know how to get there.

I know thoughts alone aren't sinful if you fight them, but I'm struggling to manage them and I don't know how to redirect my mind. Has anyone here dealt with similar unwanted thoughts? What practical steps, duas, or habits helped you?

Please keep me in your duas.
