Its not quite the same, but I remember how it felt when I had to tell my then boyfriend about my ROCD. It was HORRIBLE, I was so upset, but he barely even flinched. I feel like his support could be useful, but if you don’t want to tell him I understand why

Tell him, use this app to start ERP. You’ll need support and chances are he’ll want to know ?❤️

It’s no reflection on who you are or what you might do. That being said I totally understand. I have panic attacks over the fear that I could kill someone or myself. Just lose control.

I would tell him... it may be hard but he loves you he will understand that it’s your ocd and not you. Just because you have a thought doesn’t mean you will act on it or what to do it. If you want help before telling him, maybe grab a journal and write down what you want to say as if you are talking to him through it... maybe it would help release it and process it so that way you can get to a point to tell him or if you are too embarrassed them give him the letter...

I feel like I can’t tell him that. I couldn’t even sleep that well last night because of it...

I had a horrible bout with harm ocd and rocd a few years back. It was very hard to tell my husband as well but to my surprise he was very understanding and the fact that I have this problem and these thoughts doesn’t seem to bother him at all. He says he just doesn’t like to see me suffer. I’m EXTREMELY glad I told my husband! He also is able to bring me back to reality and rational thought as well, which helps me get through the ocd thoughts

Hey!! Need help kinda urgently
So I have harm ocd for sure and I get triggered by some m1rder cases like for some reason my brain gets latched to them and the perpetrators my brain goes ‘what if they’d find you attractive’ ‘would you be one of their victims’ and it feels like they’re watching me, if that makes sense, like they’re watching me, is this a symptom of any type of OCD? Please no judgement I’m super scared and I hate that my brain does this

idk if its harm ocd anymore
I dont know whats going on. I dont know if its OCD anymore. I know it was in the beginning. Ive been through a lot of trauma and had one little scary thought of killing my sister 4 months ago that has blossomed into this giant idea of me being a serial killer and wanting to hurt everyone (I never had any social issues growing up but I have had some trauma). Recently I’ve been having urges to just give in. And my mental images have been horrible and I can’t stop checking if I like them or not. I think I’ve convinced myself I have. This morning I woke up a shaking mess with an urge to unalive my family and when my mom left for work I was alone with my sister and couldnt stop vomiting uncontrollably. I dont know if i’m upset because I cant hurt anyone and I want to, or if I’m scared and just want my old life back. I was an avid horror and gore lover and now I’m convinced I want to do the things I’ve seen in the movies. Someone please help. I’m ready to check into the psych ward.
