when i first got my Cat, I had intrusive thoughts too and it was horrible for the first couple weeks with her around. Now, we are best buds (although she picks on me and bites me). Thoughts are just thoughts and do not dictate the future :) even the scariest ones
@My OCD Academia so happy you guys have an amazing relationship! these thoughts are so terrifying
i'm really sorry to hear you're going through this. having those kinds of intrusive thoughts can feel terrifying, but it's important to remember they're just thoughts, not intentions. it's super tough, but you're not alone in feeling this way. 💔 by the way, have you heard about this new AI-powered OCD therapy tool called 'unstuck'? when i was dealing with similar feelings, my NOCD therapist recommended 'unstuck' (unstuckmyOCD.com/try) to me, and it was a game changer. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it offers personalized support for dealing with intrusive thoughts, guiding you through managing them just like an OCD therapist would. i hate when people promote stuff, but i really think it can help you because it's changed my life. lmk if you have qs or just want to talk more! <3
@LeslieB3 thank you for the suggestion! i tried to make an account but it keeps saying error and codes. :(
@grlwithocd ♥︎︎ - hiii! would like to send them an email?
@LeslieB3 hey leslie!! i made it and feeling better ☺️
@grlwithocd ♥︎︎ - Omg. You're so sweet for getting back to me. I am glad to hear that by the way!! Hope you continue to manage it better<333
I had a horrible thought and it was my own thought. I feel awful. Also my heart is racing all the time
i’m struggling. so i’m a nanny and i had an intrusive thought to like do something bad to him so i was very upset crying saying i don’t want to do it but as i was changing him i got closer to it to see if i would actually do it and i got grossed out. now im feel extremely guilty i even got closer.
i’ve already posted about this before but i keep thinking about it. i was sitting next to a dog and it was laying on its back laying face away from me. i kept getting intrusive thoughts about touching the dog inappropriately. and i was petting the dog to prove to myself that i wouldn’t. i remember i was leaning on the dog. then he kicked me with his back legs three times. i also was rotating my shoulder cause it pops and cracks when i do and i was trying to relieve it. i think i touched the dog and on purpose too, because thoughts were going through my head. after the dog kicked me i sat there for a second just pure panic and i ran to the bathroom, just crying non stop. i dont think i deserve to cry tho. i think my life is a over. the more i try to remember the more scary thoughts of what could’ve happened pop up. i’m just in denial and i want to be sent to a mental hospital.
