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
@Jessica_castroo Thanks for it 🩷
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
@Anonymous This happens to me
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
Hi how ru feeling now?
Hey, I suffer from harm ocd and I feel as if it’s non stop everything I do everyday I believe I killed someone I believe it’s harm ocd and false memory but like today I went to the store and saw a older lady and my head thinks of images of me pushing them or killing then and right after that thought I feel as if I done it then the rest of the day I ruminate replaying everything. I know erp and I should just accept the thought and let it go but it’s not easy and I feel as if i really hurt or killed someone and I don’t want to go to jail for something I don’t want to do . Any tips would be appreciated I don’t know how to accept and move on when it feels so real that I did something!
Hi guys. Hope everyone is okay I just wanted to ask for some ppl to share how they overcame harm ocd completely so that I can get an idea of how to work towards healing. Thank you :)
Hello everybody I just am looking for someone to talk to about my harm ocd / false memory/ sexual intrusiveness. Anyone who has healed or found ways to deal with the illness. Feels like I’m losing hope more and more everyday. I want to be okay but it’s hard living with uncertainty and unwanted urges of doing something terrible. Thanks god bless.
