Wait so how do you know if you actually thought abt it or not..? Now I’m confused 😭 and scared bc now I can’t tell past my other intrusive thoughts💀 I thought them.. but then I felt bad for thinking them? But I also can’t tell that if I’ve just been so used to them its something that feels like it’s something I would actually think? Bc I’m so used to them now and before I could tell that these thoughts were not me and now I can’t seem to tell :( or if I’m just making excuses bc of this..

you, yourself can intentionally think of a thought, or do something and feel bad afterwards, idk if this makes since but i literally relate too you.

You have distress and anxiety from thoughts that are counter to who you are coming into your mind and getting stuck. Whether the anxiety comes before or after doesn’t matter.

Hey friend, I don’t think it really matters. They are all just thoughts. Thoughts don’t hurt anyone, whether we think them intentionally or not. Don’t over analyze this.
