Currently dealing with panic bursts while sitting with these thoughts. My brain is definitely catastrophizing and I am not engaging but anxiety is really high. Has anybody experinced this?
You’re not alone. ❤️🩹 I know the feeling very well… i know how exhausting that can be. You’re doing great by not engaging! Remember to breathe… I like to walk outside to try and ground myself. I wish I knew how to help you but just know you’re not alone..
@kblvft I appreciate that and unfortunately medication isnt really working right now
I feel for you, please override those thoughts. Ocd is trying to drag you back. Those thoughts are a scam they don't mean anything.
I’m dealing with the same for a month. For me it feels like an urge attack(if it makes sense). It’s hard. But you can totally deal with it! I can share that my thoughts rn are like “how do I avoid of doing it?” And even then I don’t understand I don’t really want it. Hope it helps
I am so so upset and anxious right now. At this point I badly need reassurance as Im feeling a whole panic attack coming on. Has anyone ever had the feeling in their head and body like they are actually going to act on a terrible harm related intrusive thought like it actually feels like you are. Im scared as fuck i dont know what to do because What if i actually do that i am so scared does it ever feel like your on the edge of doing it and you get this whole intrusive urge in your body PLEASE REPLY please tell me experiences
Does anyone like go through waves. Your mind is super silent maybe a couple of thoughts but you are able to brush it off? But then out of nowhere your mind just starts rushing with every thought? If so, how do you cope with this? It drains me.
Two things are happening: I get thoughts that just keep looping. They almost feel like song stuck in my head. Also, I’ll imagine something and I feel my stomach drop. Then as the seconds go by I keep getting fragments of the this thought but with different details. For example, it’s kinda like how a “vision” is portrayed. I’ll get a glimpse of the thought and then it’ll rapidly expand into something worse every few seconds. I don’t know if I’m causing this or if it’s just an automatic thing like any other intrusive thought. It feels unavoidable, idk if this is a compulsion or if it’s just another manifestation of an intrusive thought. Apart from that remembering an intrusive thought triggers the full thought again and then it just keeps looping or expanding. I don’t know how to stop any of this. Help?
