Can thoughts or this disorder makes you want to have the intrusive thoughts to happen even when you don't and it becomes a confusing mess? Because I'm dealing with that rn and it's hard to manage.
Yes, the more you fight them the more they appear, it's not like you want to have the intrusive thoughts, it's more like the more you think about not wanting to have them or the more you try to stop them the more you won't be able to let them go
Yep. That’s ocd. It’s the doubt disorder. It will feel INCREDIBLY real and make you feel that way. Try ALI GREYMOND on YouTube, she’s changed my life. Also Nathan Petersons channel ‘OCD and Anxiety’
yeah, ive dealt with that a lot. it's hard to tell who's in charge of your thoughts. i think ocd just makes us confused in general. whether you are bringing on the thought yourself or it is coming against your will, its intrusive if it's uncomfortable. You don't need to find all the answers, they might be impossible to find.
How do you guys handle uncertainty? I keep having so many what if thoughts and I feel so bad. The worst ones are what if I act on my intrusive thoughts or actually want them and I can’t tell if they’re me or not. It just feels so real and at this point I don’t even know if they’re intrusive thoughts anymore. I just want to not be a bad person and not feel like this anymore.
Can ocd convince you momentarily you want your intrusive thoughts only to snap out of it
Is there something wrong with me if I’m not disgusted by my intrusive thoughts anymore like the disgust feeling has been gone for months now and why are my thoughts feel like they’re literally so close happening inside my brain why can I lowkey physically feel the images of that makes sense,Why do I get adrenaline why do I get a weird tingle my lips sometimes make an awkward like position when I get the thoughts it’s like I’m having a glitch idek which thought is intentional which one is intrusive but there bad thoughts and I don’t want them to be the truth about me but I literally cannot get myself to just feel relaxed even if they’re present like I actually get genuine headaches and feel uneasy for hours after having intrusive thoughts and I hate how it’s always the same kinda thoughts and sensations feelings etc around those thoughts out of nowhere when I’m just chilling they come in before when I had it is be like okay ew weird thought now I’m like what if I actually like this and I’m in denial uGHHH HATE MY BRAIN
