feels inevitable
even though i really don’t want to kill anyone, it feels inevitable. like one day i’m going to snap and it’s going to happen. the thought of that keeps me so scared and stuck.

those thoughts sound so terrifying to deal with. I'm sorry you're going through this. being trapped in OCD's grip is truly one of the worst things there is in life. there is something past this, I promise. i hope life feels easy again for you soon

Sometimes harming feels inevitable for me too but I have to remember that that’s just another trick OCD plays. It’s normal for it to feel very real, scary, like something you want or something you need to do even if you have no desire to do it. Just know that, even tho it’s so hard, every moment you have that feeling or urge you have to pretend you’re not scared. You have to try to stay calm and unaffected. Eventually your brain realizes it’s not what you really want and it won’t make you anxious. ERP treatment is extremely helpful with this as well. Stay strong!

Thank you! Keep in mind too that you know in your core that harm is not what YOU really want. It’s what OCD wants you to think you want.

idk if its harm ocd anymore
I dont know whats going on. I dont know if its OCD anymore. I know it was in the beginning. Ive been through a lot of trauma and had one little scary thought of killing my sister 4 months ago that has blossomed into this giant idea of me being a serial killer and wanting to hurt everyone (I never had any social issues growing up but I have had some trauma). Recently I’ve been having urges to just give in. And my mental images have been horrible and I can’t stop checking if I like them or not. I think I’ve convinced myself I have. This morning I woke up a shaking mess with an urge to unalive my family and when my mom left for work I was alone with my sister and couldnt stop vomiting uncontrollably. I dont know if i’m upset because I cant hurt anyone and I want to, or if I’m scared and just want my old life back. I was an avid horror and gore lover and now I’m convinced I want to do the things I’ve seen in the movies. Someone please help. I’m ready to check into the psych ward.
