It is exhausting, yours sounds very similar to mine. We often fear what we wish to not become. Im sure you've heard that before, and i dont want to reassure you because it can be only a temporary hit of relief but if you really are a kid dealing with this please understand there is something insids you so pure and gentle that you dont want to do this things and so you do everything in your power not to. But also please i beg you, learn to take your mistakes, because you will make them. Allow to make mistakes and sit in the discomfort of any possibility. If you did text the wrong person, sit with the uncertainty of did they care, did they not care, did they ignore it. Its the same as walking out in the street with the right of way. Chances are low of getting hit, but never zero. This takes alot of practice and im dealing w it myself everyday. Try and educate yourself as much as you can, watch youtube videos read books talk to people. Dont shut yourself out. You got this, we all do ❤️

Intrusive thoughts
I struggle so bad with intrusive thoughts. They can be so bad that I'll cry because I KNOW that's not how I feel or want to do. (Too embarrassed to say what they're about) I'll constantly try to figure out why I have them, and constantly figure out what they mean, causing me to constantly circle around and around. I had to get on anxeity meds, which helped a little but the thoughts still happen. How do you help yourself with this? How do you know that you're just not some physcopath? 😅

harmful & scary intrusive thoughts
does anyone else get really vivid intrusive thoughts of the person who you are talking to (or close to physically) just randomly striking you violently? i keep getting them when i’m just talking to my dad one on one in the car & i get a flash of intrusive thoughts of him grabbing my hair & shoving my face in the dashboard. it gets me so anxious :’)
