I am very scared . My mind is sick. Someone told me that a bad thing happened to them and I keep thinking about it. I think: what if I wanted that to happen? Is this ocd? I am so scared and disgusted. How can I think like this??
That happens to me with true crime cases. But we have to remember ocd attacks what we value most. If you didn’t care so much about the general well-being of people/weren’t such an empathetic person ocd wouldn’t be attacking that
Its scary
@kaylaxo i try to remember that if i really were a sick person, i wouldn’t feel so bad about it. if you truly felt this way, you wouldn’t be overthinking about it. people who those feelings come naturally to them never overthink it, and just accept it. i try to remember a truly sick person wouldn’t be scared by these thoughts.
@maddie2000 If I overthink is seems real and if I dont...Is still not ok
Questions that start with "what if" usually are OCD. And you know what that means: time to do ERP. Do your best to ride out the fear and disgust without engaging in compulsions, and let them naturally lessen.
Guys it feels so real and im really scared because it feels like i dont care about the thoughts and it feels like im going to do something terrible, its horrific. I am so scared i keep getting urges and images i dont know what to do because i get a whole rush of panic. I think what’s triggered it was my for you page on tiktok, on the Mendez brothers murder cases and The prada guy and im so scared but it feels like im not worried like abt the thoughts or feeling but i am scared pls reply its literally plaguing me in my head idk what to do bc it feels like im gonna do it
Is this ocd? I Have a thought or think something f harmful that I’ve gotten intrusive thoughts about - and get a feeling like I want/like it or it would give me relief??? Please tell me that will eventually go away and I’ll get my real feelings back??? Or have I just turned into those things? Sometimes things that make me upset it even feels like I’ll do them just so I can be upset about them.
I'm so scared that by thinking about things I can make them happen. I know that's a central thing in OCD but I googled it and a lot of people actually say that if you think about stuff you can make it happen. I've been processing a lot of trauma and having intrusive thoughts about it and I'm so scared that if I think about people who hurt me it will make them contact me and it's making me feel really paranoid and scared and panic and I'm just so scared that I'm somehow conjuring bad people to come into my life and that I'm going to somehow get sucked back into my past or that I am somehow calling people close to me who could hurt me or that something bad is going to happen to me because my thoughts have been so scary and triggering. I'm also feeling really dissociated and I'm worried that these thoughts are actually me starting to have some sort of a psychotic break or something. Please help I'm so scared.
