does any one else have an intrusive thought and you go over it in your head and try to see if you react in a good or bad way? i’ve been having bad intrusive thoughts but i sometimes have this feeling inside that i like it? and i feel it’s right and i agree inside but my other thoughts are saying no i hate it ?!
Not sure if this helps, but I've heard that our initial/intrusive thoughts are what our brains have been trained to say (just repetition), and the thoughts we say afterward are the ones we truly believe (because it takes a second to think).
@Peabody that was really helpful thankyou !
This one time I got an intrusive feeling that I liked the thoughts and I didn’t. I’m scared of getting that feeling again and I worry about what if I did again. I hate the thoughts and I definitely don’t like them but these intrusive feelings suck and is one of the hardest things to get over :/
It sucks, and it’s hard to understand that these thoughts aren’t mine cause why does it feel like I’m getting excited by them as well? When that should be the last thing that should be happening. It only convinces me more and I just sit there after feeling it like “what am I supposed to/can do about this?” And I just feel distraught cause if it’s not what I want, why am I feeling something like that towards it? When I should be feeling something more negative?
How do get rid of intrusive thoughts?? And how do you know that they’re intrusive thoughts if you started thinking of them? Or if you feel like you’re the one who’s thinking of them rather than them just popping in your mind? Like if you’re looking for it, like you’re looking for trouble… Anyone else feel like this too?
