Learning to be around the people your brain says you want to hurt. My gf and I haven’t been on the best terms so I’ve been a bit angry at her. I woke up one morning and had crazy thoughts that I wanted to hurt her. I jolted out of bed and started throwing up. Eventually I came back upstairs on the verge to call 911 or something and she woke up and I hugged her for a solid 10 mins. All of those thoughts her gone. Hug these people and remind yourself you love them and that could possibly never happen

I simply remind myself that they’re just thoughts and that I would never do such a thing. As a matter of fact, just this morning I had thoughts of harming my own kids. It was absolutely terrible and uncomfortable but I know that I would never ever hurt them

I think by just taking it day by day. If it’s so bad that you feel you can’t be around many people than that’s okay and than the next day try and be around those people and remind yourself you are not your thoughts. You’d never hurt anyone.

@Emmnala Yes some days are better but some days I feel really anxious especially in the mornings and finally i end up avoiding a lot of social situations, sitting at home depressed

Does anyone ever mimic/imagine harm OCD thoughts?
Does anyone imagine they are doing their harm thoughts during an action, making you feel like you acted on your thoughts? For example, someone gave me a hug and at the last second I imagined I was touching something I shouldn’t during the hug? I want to make it clear it’s something I have zero desire to do! But the problem is, I thought it on purpose and it makes me sick !! Obviously nothing happened but my mind is telling me that was me trying to do it. Even though it was physically impossible to do. Am I a monster or could this be OCD? I’m freaking out and don’t want to be here anymore. I feel like I’m the exception and that this isn’t OCD. I know I post about this stuff a lot but I’m struggling and don’t know what to do.

Questions
There are times my harm ocd has me convinced that my feelings of self harm or suicide and harm are real and that any moment I could commit the act on myself or my family. Is there anyone who can chime in on this. I feel like all the time I want to leave run away or avoid my family because of these thoughts. Like I shouldn’t be around my children and I don’t trust myself.
