You don’t have to punish yourself. No punishment needed. OCD always makes us feel like black and white, and if some little thing happens then some really bad thing will happen. This is just not true. Consider that part of your therapy would be to watch disturbing things on purpose and then ride out the anxious feelings. You practice doing this over and over until you realize that you are not in danger.
Take a break outside.
I feel really bad right now.And really scared.I am scared I am a horrible person.Like I wnjoy horrible things.I am scared is getting really bad again
18+ I had an intrusive thought and kept thinking about it but then I realised I wanted to think about it and I thought it and suddenly felt like I enjoyed it and now I feel really scared and disgusted in myself and I might have been thinking it because I genuinely wanted to and enjoyed it even though I feel awful now
It’s 3am and I’m not doing well. I’m having an overwhelming amount of anxiety. I need to feel mentally clean but I’m dirty. I’ve had bad thoughts and I’m ashamed. I feel like I can’t even write it down. I want to say it aloud to someone but my wife is sleeping right next to me so doing a therapy call would be impossible. I’m feeling helpless. And so guilty for my thoughts.
