Im horrified because my Intrusive thoughts are starting/trying to make me feel like i secretly want these things to happen. I know you shouldn’t do this but everytime i try to say i dont want this now i get this guilt or bad feeling in my system like i actually do. I Also sometimes get that same feeling whenever i hear about someone doing bad things like this on the news like I did it too or i want to do it. These unwanted feelings and urges are starting to scare me more and more to death and idk what to do. Its really making me feel like i shouldn’t be here smh

Ocd is more than intrusive thoughts: it’s also intrusive feelings, urges, and images. OCD uses every trick in the book to keep us scared and hooked on our obsessions. I’d expect you to have these feelings. You absolutely belong here. So many people here can relate.

Intrusive thoughts

I struggle so bad with intrusive thoughts. They can be so bad that I'll cry because I KNOW that's not how I feel or want to do. (Too embarrassed to say what they're about) I'll constantly try to figure out why I have them, and constantly figure out what they mean, causing me to constantly circle around and around. I had to get on anxeity meds, which helped a little but the thoughts still happen. How do you help yourself with this? How do you know that you're just not some physcopath? 😅

What is this?

Recently ive been getting very scared to even be angry bc of the horrible thoughts I have and it feels even more real when I'm angry or even annoyed. Rn I was not even super annoyed at my neice but I felt a twinge of annoyance since she went up to my face and was yelling at me while I was resting on the bed and I got this image of doing something bad to her and I felt my hand twitch very little. I got nervous and felt relieved when her dad told her to stop screaming for no reason. I've been hyperfocusing on my bodily reactions (mainly my hands or how I'm feeling like did I just enjoy that? Was I considering???) And I've noticed the small twitches whenever I'm mad or annoyed and it's scaring me so bad! Like do I want to act out? Am I holding back??? I used to not even twitch at all when mad and I felt 100% sure I'll never act out but now it feels like I don't know bc what do these twitches mean?, I do know I don't want to ever act out but it's so scary. Recently whenever I feel angry once the argument is over I cry really bad after I'm alone and I pray so i never want or act out. And when the annoyance passes I also feel so guilty and want to stay away. Im scared these are real urges and i research for many many hours to make sure they arent urges or impulses and i also tend to ask chatgpt or here if the anxiety gets so bad 😕
