Angry
This is hard. Triggers are hard. I hate this. I’m mad. I hate it. I’m scared. I wanna cry. Scream. Run away.

Everything. I’m just scared. Mind you she is four and a happy healthy little girl. My brain just f’s with me in the worst way possible. I can’t function at times. It’s been so bad. I wanna cry.
@Mae1214 That the worst. I think a therapist would be an order. Don’t think of it as the thoughts are controlling you or they’re overwhelming you think of it as your parental brain is being overactive. And reassuring yourself that your four year old is safe I think it’s important by checking in on them and seeing them and how wonderful they are to play and be happy. I think believing what her eye sees is the hardest part.
@David Diaz I started therapy last week. I have had ocd on and off for years. This is the newest theme.
It’s so hard. What your biggest trigger that happens in a regular day?
For me it seeing discarded wrappers, cause germs, crumbs, there dirty hands touching the out side. This happens everywhere and I can’t escape it ugh!! I get this I really do
Ocd is so hard, tell your brain, nope not today ocd!!!!! Byyye
It’s definitely hard, but running away and hiding will not fix your OCD. You have to face your fears to overcome them.
Pocd feels real again and I can’t tell if I’m actually attracted or not. can’t believe it got this bad again. I used to be able to go “no I don’t like that, go away” and now it feels like I do like it and want it, and it’s starting to linger longer so it feels more real. I’m avoiding checking but I’m so scared that what if it’s true. Is it because I have not been doing my exposures? I’m not sure, but every time a 14 year old person comes to my head, I keep hearing something go “they’re attractive” and it sounds like me so I panic, and it makes me even more scared because I’m not feeling bad about it??? I saw some kid at Walmart that had long black hair and my brain kept saying shit and no matter how much I say I don’t feel that way, it won’t shut up, i want to check 1000 times to make sure. But I know it’s not worth it. I’m trying so hard
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 don’t know why but today I feel so incredibly angry right now and I was so frustrated with everything including my two dogs. I didn’t hurt them or hit them or anything but I was particularly annoyed and angry when they were trying to get presumably a bunny or a raccoon from underneath the shed, so I had to pull my small dog away when he wouldn’t budge away from the shed and i couldn’t pick him up because I was not close enough. I feel bad because I know I love my dogs but oh my god I just get so annoyed with them and on top of them everything else I have to just shut down all day and the things I don’t understand. I feel like I’m going insane. I don’t want my dogs to think I don’t love them because i was angry and annoyed at them. I know they’re just animals and they love me and I love them. I want them to know I’m sorry for even getting mad. I wish I didn’t feel so angry and yet so disconnected at the same time. I’m terrified I’m an evil person or that I don’t love my pets or something. I started to hit myself and punch myself because I do that when I get over the edge angry. I don’t know why I feel angry. It’s a mix of anger and emptiness and I don’t want either of them especially towards my dogs.
