Just breathe my love, you will be okay ❤️ the fact that you are even aware and accepting that you have OCD is incredible, you will get through this and live a normal life!! I have started seeing an OCD specialist and she has helped my understand that OCD is the doubting disease, it will make you feel unsure of anything that you let it, including your mental state and what you are capable of (hurting another human being). She told me that the people who actually commit these acts that we hear about on TV have absolutely no fears about it, and usually don’t even think of the act before they do it, they just do it and have no remorse! The fact that you are concerned about having these thoughts assures me that it is just OCD, you can fight this we are all here for you, stay strong ❤️

I’ve had the exact same issue. Try to keep in mind a thought is a thought. No matter how your OCD tries to form it to seem real to you. OCD is very good at figuring out the best way to word things or show images or even body sensations of what would go against your true values the most. It’s not easy to do but you have to try and accept the thoughts you’re having as just that and to let it run its course (like a song stuck in your head) try your hardest to let yourself feel the anxiety and let it pass. It can only last so long and fun fact IT CANT HURT YOU! Sorry if that seemed aggressive but I promise you’re going to be ok. You have plenty of friends here to help along the way.

Harm ocd will try and change its angle constantly. I’ve had it for months and I still get surprised with some of the stuff it puts in my head. Just identify each thought as an ocd thought and accept it. For example, say “yes that will happen” while nodding and letting the thought play in your mind

Accept the thoughts and realize that's all it is. Dont spend all your time trying to convince yourself that you would never hurt anyone because you will feed the ocd. When your having these thoughts around the people that trigger you must let them come, dont argue with them and sit in the emotions they create. Feel the sensations created by the anxiety and accept them as an experience your having. These thoughts don't define who you are, your are not a bad person. You have to habituat yourself by forcing yourself to be around your triggers without doing mental compulsions.

Thank you for all of your answers❤️ I have been Reading a lot about being skinzofrenic the last couple of days, because I am so afraid of it! So my mind is hyperaware. Thats probably Why, it send me this thought. - I feel a little better now, knowing others have tried it as well. I am still afraid though, because you know OCD. But your supportive answers means the world to me. Thank you ❤️
