Feel like fear came true
So since yesterday my harm ocd came back full force. Earlier I was picking up from the floor some pieces of a glass that broke yesterday. Before doing so, I checked that my cats were not in the room so that they wouldn't get hurt, and once I checked, I closed the door and started cleaning. Because I had intrusive thoughts while I was picking uo the shards, I started to feel anxious and decided to grab one of the pieces and examine to make sure it wasn't that sharp or dangerous so I could be calmer (worst mistake). When I grabbed it I started running one of my fingers on the edge of the glass and obviously cut myself but it was a very small cut, I panicked because I felt like I was trying to hurt myself on purpose, I don't even understand why I did that if I knew I was going to cut myself, but the worst thing was when one of my cats came out from under the bed (she always does that!)and I immediately felt so terrified that I was holding the piece of glass in my hand trying to test whether it would be harmful or not, without knowing that my cat was under the bed. As soon as I saw her come out, I immediately panicked a d dropped the piece of glass but the problem is that it could've falle on my cat because the moment I dropped it on the floor she was passing by me, it was a big piece and when it fell it was a centimeter away from falling on her head. That made me terrfied because I felt like I was about to hurt my cat, I opened the bedroom door immediately for her to get out and now I can't stop crying. I feel like she could've been hurt, she's totally fine, but that damng thing was about to fall on her and I don't know what would have happened if I hurt her. I let it fall because of the panic I felt, I didn't think clearly, now i'm spirling thinking I did it on purpose. I don't even know why I grabbed that thing in the first place knowing it could harm myself or someone else. I am feeling worse than ever right now!! Someone pls help
