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 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 guys, I am having the worst HARM OCD episode I have had in a while. I am having disgusting, awful intrusive thoughts about harming others. It feels so real. It feels as if I am about to get up and just do it. The worst bit about it all Is I know I feel distressed and panicked. But where the thoughts are actually happening ( in my head) doesnt feel this feeling. This is making it feel worse as it really does feel like Im just going to do it. I am crying my eyes out because I know im petrified and dont want to hurt anyone im so scared. I have this terrible intrusive feeling in my that feels like its justifying the thoughts. Please can someone talk as I am scared Im crying I dont want know what to do I want this feeling gone I am so scared. I tell myself Id kill myself before hurting anyone else, but would i ? What if I actually do want to kill Please respond Im so scared

I’m sharing this bc I need advice or even support from anyone who can relate. If you can’t relate and don’t think you’ll say anything helpful or kind pls don’t comment anything… I’ve been struggling with somethings that’s making me question myself. There has been moments while self pleasuring when I get intrusive thoughts, in those moments it feels like I’m enjoying or even self pleasuring myself bc of the thought. Right after I immediately have an anxiety attack and my HEART drops bc it feels terrible I feel like a disgusting monster :( ppl have told me I haven’t done a bad bc of how intense my guilt and panic are but I keep thinking that MAYBE I made a horrible decision in the moment and the guilt is just realising that it’s just wrong this doesn’t make sense to me because I’ve always told myself that I would never act on this in 1 million years and I’ve been known that these things are wrong so I’m just like constantly questioning myself these feelings and exact same situation has happened two times already I even promised myself that I wouldn’t act on anything beforehand and yeah, I still felt like I did act on my thought during my alone time I’m genuinely convinced that I’m a horrible and it’s even got into the point where I don’t wanna be here anymore and I don’t even think this is my OCD :( tbh

Does anyone imagine they are doing their harm thoughts during an action, making you feel like you acted on your thoughts? For example, someone gave me a hug and at the last second I imagined I was touching something I shouldn’t during the hug? I want to make it clear it’s something I have zero desire to do! But the problem is, I thought it on purpose and it makes me sick !! Obviously nothing happened but my mind is telling me that was me trying to do it. Even though it was physically impossible to do. Am I a monster or could this be OCD? I’m freaking out and don’t want to be here anymore. I feel like I’m the exception and that this isn’t OCD. I know I post about this stuff a lot but I’m struggling and don’t know what to do.
