Guys please please the thoughts I understand are easy to ignore but the urges feel so real. I’m going to take the train tmrw but the urge of either jumping in front of the train and pushing someone else is making me sob. They feel soooooo real WHAT DO I DO IM GOING CRAZY
Harm ocd is the worst bc it feels so real and the urges you feel are so scary. Not to reassure you but you aren’t gonna do it so just learn to say “f these thoughts” and continue with your day. I literally have learned to almost laugh at my thoughts bc they are so off the wall
@Itsheathersocd I don’t think theme is ever recoverable
@Itsheathersocd This is my second flare and my last flare lasted four years … my brain is telling me if I won’t act on it then my brain won’t calm down. They feel like impulses
@Anonymous It is recoverable. recovery though comes with relapses and flares for most. But you still are moving forward if you are dealing with it. You may always struggle with it but time will heal it.
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 have the thought of what if I lose control and do something out of my control like scream for no reason or yelling in a store or just blurting stuff out that’s not in my control and it causes so much anxiety and causes me to feel weird. I always think I’m on the edge of losing control of myself and it’s exhausting living like this. Any tips?
i’m so scared im going to lose control and end up locked up or something. this is so exhausting!! i worry that what i have isn’t OCD and that im genuinely insane and im gonna end up in big trouble or that the urges i have are going to actually happen. i dont want to think these things ! i feel like a horrible human being!!
