Having a lot of OCD right now. It’s actually sending me into an anxiety attack. I’m so afraid I have lost my mind or about to lose my mind. My thoughts are so intense as well. I could use some positive words or some comforting words. I have harm OCD, fear of schizophrenia, as well as Religious OCD. I feel like they are all happening at once and I can’t calm my mind. I think it has to do with my period but I’m not sure.

I’m so sorry. I know it can be so rough to deal with so many thoughts at once. ❤️

I haven’t tried ERP as of yet but am slowly working on that. Thank you all so much for your advice and kind words. I will focus on my breathing and try not to dwell in my thoughts. OCD isn’t easy, I forgot how hard the bad days can be because I have been doing well before this small set back. You all are so strong❤️

Are you trying ERP?

Focus on your breathing and try to take deep breaths until your body feels less tense, also try to write down how you feel and let it out

Perfect love cast out all fear you receive salvation as a gift is nothing you could do in your life to have learned that just give thanks to God and let him deal with everything else when you decide you're going to trust him that religious OCD should diminish. I understand your fears of going crazy but I truly believe that people that are worried about all this stuff will never act on any of it I've been dealing mostly over 10 years with the same fear I pray that helps me but we have to just understand that our brain is just so active think about the dreams we have their weird everyday we have to stop thinking that other people don't think crazy things like we do because they're fine they're just not holding on to the thoughts they letting them go my doctor has been giving me Klonopins for my anxiety and it helps I only take it when I'm really overwhelmed but I do try to Hands-On with my anxiety firsthand my OCD came from the anxiety I truly believe that but you just have to let yourself have the thought and then just trust it just a thought and let it go I personally have a fear of knives the big ones and I expose myself to them because I know I would never hurt anybody but it still makes me cry because I don't want to think this stuff and I don't want to be around anyone I feel like can't defend themselves it's going to be an elderly person a little kid which breaks my heart because I love people and I love babies scared to death to hold little babies because of these terrible images I don't care what this thread says and they can report my comment I truly believe that we're all dealing with these things and it is coming from the enemy none of us to truly dangerous these all tricks and lies from the enemy because we have such big loving hearts people that have crazy and evil they don't think about the fears and feel bad I'm worried about all of this stuff like we do and try to protect everybody they have no emotion they don't care they have no feeling and they do it they don't set the years going to this so even if my comments he's up for just a moment I hope it does comfort you. You're not going to lose your mind.just remember God loves you he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world listen to me start reading your Bible get yourself into a church you need good support around you. Everything's going to be okay. Go to a therapist once a week it will help.

I will use your really good advice.I will get through and I know you will too. God bless you and your kind soul?
