Please help me (harm ocd)
Hi everyone, I'm really struggling with harm ocd and I searched it up on Google and I got led here. I just really want someone to talk to about it because I'm really scared.

I have harm OCD.. It sucks. Just know that you aren't alone. It's apparently one of the most common OCD themes
Yeah I'm just learning about all of this. It's horrifying. I'm having trouble taking care of myself and I just feel so sick because I feel like my brain is telling me I want to or that I might snap and do it. It's about my girlfriend who I love more than anything and would never lay a finger on.
@PhatBoiiGamer That is how evil OCD is. It takes what you love and tries to steal it from you. You will be okay. Just seek the help you need. Everyone is open on NOCD and here to help.
@PhatBoiiGamer I can totally relate, it's made me sick to my stomach before. I have urges that feel so real. Mine are about my husband and kids. I highly recommend talking to a therapist about it, specifically one that does ERP.
@Maybe, Maybe Not Ill look into that. Thank you so much. And best of luck to you.
@PhatBoiiGamer Thank you! You too!
@Maybe, Maybe Not Indeed. From what I’ve studied it’s in the top 3 most common themes. No one struggling with this is alone.
I’ve had this before when I was 7 years old and it was the most confusing thing in my life it was terrifying but I got helped and managed to get through it and it doesn’t bother me at all anymore,the fact that you are scared shows you don’t want to do anything,they are just thoughts they mean nothing,you are not your OCD thoughts
I would like to get to that stage. It really means a lot to know that this can be beaten. I'm just having a hard time because Im new to this so it really sucks and is really scary
@PhatBoiiGamer I know the exact feeling :(
Harm OCD absolutely sucks! I mean all OCD does, but fearing hurting yourself, loved ones, strangers, etc. is the scariest stuff I’ve ever experienced. But it does get better and you’re not alone!
I am sorry that you are going through this tough time. It DOES get better. OCD is evil. Please take the time to find a counselor through NOCD that meets your needs. You are not alone. Realize in these moments there are others thinking of you and praying for you as well. There is a song by Casting Crowns called “Just Be Held” that has been an encouragement to me and many others. You can find it on YouTube. Praying and thinking of you. 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for your kind words. I will look it up.
@PhatBoiiGamer Glad you found this app.
@Hope and a future I am too. I just really needed help and it seems I will get it here
@PhatBoiiGamer You will and there are plenty of people who have experienced great success.
I am sorry you going through this, I recently developed harm OCD as well, I don’t know what trigger it but I know how hard can be. All I can say is, trust yourself and who you really are. Meditate and reach out to the real you. That helped me a lot to understand I’m not what I’m thinking although it gets so hard sometimes
@Anonymous In my experiences, it is very hard to discern what is real and what the lie is. The lie seems real and the real you seems like the lie. That’s the evilness of this disease. It makes you doubt yourself and core being. There is help with medication and ERP therapy and other strategies.
Hey I’m here,your not alone :)
Thank you, I just cannot get the thoughts out of my head and I'm afraid that one day I might snap and act on it. Even though I don't want to.
Someone please help me I’m having intrusive thoughts of hurting my pets and I’m really scared of myself and I want these thoughts to go away. Can someone please help me I’m scared and I don’t know if I’m a monster
Hi - I’m new here but I’m going through this right now and was wondering if anyone can share their harm ocd recovery stories and what your experience was like. Thank you (:
Hi guys. Hope everyone is okay I just wanted to ask for some ppl to share how they overcame harm ocd completely so that I can get an idea of how to work towards healing. Thank you :)
