You wonāt. Remember itās ocd scaring you.
you arent gonna give in trust me. ocd is a tricky beast. remember your the one in control here. not the ocd. ik it may feel like you are out of control but u arent, i promise you that you arenāt and that everything will turn out just fine. sit with the anxiety and the discomfort and you will see a difference, wish u the best šš love u
Hey guys, I am having the worst HARM OCD episode I have had in a while. I am having disgusting, awful intrusive thoughts about harming others. It feels so real. It feels as if I am about to get up and just do it. The worst bit about it all Is I know I feel distressed and panicked. But where the thoughts are actually happening ( in my head) doesnt feel this feeling. This is making it feel worse as it really does feel like Im just going to do it. I am crying my eyes out because I know im petrified and dont want to hurt anyone im so scared. I have this terrible intrusive feeling in my that feels like its justifying the thoughts. Please can someone talk as I am scared Im crying I dont want know what to do I want this feeling gone I am so scared. I tell myself Id kill myself before hurting anyone else, but would i ? What if I actually do want to kill Please respond Im so scared
harm ocd is the bane of my existence. people always tell me that if you have anxiety over a thought, thatās ocd. and these intrusive thoughts cause me IMMENSE anxiety. iām constantly looking for reasons why iām not what these thoughts tell me i am. but WHY DOES IT FEEL SO REAL?? itās like i canāt reassure myself that this isnāt me and i donāt want to do it, but i also look for reasons why itās not me. my brain is constantly telling me āif you donāt act on this, youāll never feel freeā. WHAT EVEN IS THAT?? and why does it feel real?? anytime i think about getting therapy, i constantly think that itās not going to help me positively but help me realize i am this person. i just wish someone with harm ocd could get into my brain, understand me, and tell me everything will be okay. i wish someone in recovery could tell me that theyāve been where i am, felt the same feelings, thought the same thoughts, and got through it when they thought they wouldnāt. i feel like iām drowning in it. another thing is i think about how my mom knows a surface level understanding to this form of my ocd, but if she knew it all, iām scared sheād never look at me the same. iām scared sheād be scared of me and think i need psychiatric help. IM TERRIFIED.
iām back in a cycle of having harm related OCD thoughts and feelings and urges and i get these episodes where itās like iām disassociating and feel like iām about to snap and go crazy violent. does anyone else experience this? i need help
