reply pls, kinda panicking.

Intrusive thoughts are often irrational and things you don’t want to do but fear you will. People with POCD, for example, don’t actually want intimate contact with a minor, they just fear they do. OCD is full of people fearing they need to or want to do things that don’t align with their values. If I’m on a train platform and the train is approaching, I may get the intrusive thought to push the person in front of me onto the tracks. Do I want to harm them? Do I wish them harm? Absolutely not. Thoughts are just thoughts. Don’t absorb what he said as fact.

Whoever told you that is dumb, because intrusive thoughts are just thoughts about the most random thing that could happen, often negative things, but they are NOT indicative of what YOU'RE thinking at all. When I'm at the store, I, once or twice, had an instrusive thought about how easily I could slip a note saying that I have a concealed weapon and that they should give me all the money in the register now to the cashier, but obviously I won't do that because of multiple reasons, like the fact that it's not in my nature to do something so awful, it's morally wrong, and I don't want to get arrested. Instrusive thoughts mean absolutely nothing.

Don’t listen to anyone that isn’t a professional.

Don't listen to them, you got this 💪

I have an ongoing talk with a friend who also has the understanding "I am not my thoughts" and it brings up what "you" are. You aren't your thoughts but you can be your values, your joy, the parts of you that have grown. You are NOT your thoughts, you are SO MUCH more.

:) who told you that?
