How many times do you have intrusive thoughts? Is it weekly? Daily? Hourly? Minutes at a time? Im new on here and Im looking to talk to others that have intrusive thoughts. My IT happen frequently throughout the day. I am not on medication so I rely on my rituals. Prayers and words. I say the word LIE in my head and outloud. This works for a while. But the thoughts dont go away. They slow down maybe. Sometimes I say "Go away" and they do go away. For a few minutes. I cant believe Ive been doing this for so many years. I hope you know that you are not alone. At the very least just know you're not the only one. I do hope we can both find help.

@BioplasmaCA i am always here to talk if u need anything! ā¤ļø iām sorry youāre going through the same thing, it truly is awful. my intrusive thoughts are pretty much 24/7, iād be lucky if i get an hour without them. one thing that definitely helped me over time was letting go of my rituals like the ones you described. itās soo hard but eventually it makes the thoughts have less of a weight to them! :)
