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 ❤️

Scary thoughtsss
Is there something wrong with me if I’m not disgusted by my intrusive thoughts anymore like the disgust feeling has been gone for months now and why are my thoughts feel like they’re literally so close happening inside my brain why can I lowkey physically feel the images of that makes sense,Why do I get adrenaline why do I get a weird tingle my lips sometimes make an awkward like position when I get the thoughts it’s like I’m having a glitch idek which thought is intentional which one is intrusive but there bad thoughts and I don’t want them to be the truth about me but I literally cannot get myself to just feel relaxed even if they’re present like I actually get genuine headaches and feel uneasy for hours after having intrusive thoughts and I hate how it’s always the same kinda thoughts and sensations feelings etc around those thoughts out of nowhere when I’m just chilling they come in before when I had it is be like okay ew weird thought now I’m like what if I actually like this and I’m in denial uGHHH HATE MY BRAIN

Frustrated
So my ocd has been doing better, in the sense that I am able to resist compulsions, but the thoughts are still there. And I get so upset because some days I’m just constantly stuck in my own head. Like I went out to today with my mom, and for a solid hour I was spiraling. And my OCD has been trying to make it seem like this flare up is different, and that because things aren’t working out the way I want them to be regarding my recovery, that it’s not OCD and I’m just a crazy person. It causes me to just shut down and want to just go home. I get so upset that I want to cry. I get intrusive thoughts that something bad is gonna happen, or that something doesn’t feel right, and so it feels like I do something, anything, to make me feel better about it. I also can’t sleep in my own bed. I’m so afraid that I won’t fall asleep in it, and if I don’t sleep, I will go crazy. My thoughts are just so scary rn, I don’t know what to do. I don’t want anything bad to happen to me :(
