uffff baby, i promise you that you are NOT a murderer or a physco, ocd is really good at making you believe certain things that are not true and even make u feel things that you dont want to feel. remember just because you had a thought and it keeps reoccurring doesn’t mean you are a murderer. you never hurt or actually killed anyone or even had the intention to. we all have taboo thoughts even thoughts such as this one. ppl think it but brush it off but for us, ppl w ocd we tend to obsess over it and problem solve in our head trying to figure out whats going on because we convince ourselves that we are one. if you are worrying about it that means you care. its okay sweetie you are not crazy or a murderer its just your ocd spiraling. it may feel like your lying even when typing this, hey maybe you are maybe you arent? your never gonna get a certain answer. but there is one thing that i do know, and that is that you will never hurt someone or let alone kill them. everything will turn out just fine 💗

Harm OCD was one of my first themes and it was soo hard. Try to remember ocd attacks your values, the things that terrify you the most. That helped me a lot, also knowing that the fact that when those intrusive thoughts came across my mind, it caused me so much anxiety, guilt, and fear, the fact that it bothered me so much told me everything I needed to know. It’s scary, it sucks, but your intrusive thoughts are not your thoughts! It will get better 🫶🏼

I’ve been dealing with intrusive violent images/urges/thoughts for months now. Lately it’s gotten worse. Sometimes when I see a person i automatically imagine hurting them, sometimes to see if I enjoy the thought or not, or sometimes it just appears in my head and I try to cut it off immediately. It’s like i just can not interact with people because I can’t tell if I’m a risk or not. If I’m capable of hurting them or not. I hate it because I’m all day trying to get an answer to whether I want to harm people or not. I’m constantly asking myself: have you ever desired the thought? Do you want to do it or not? And all of the above makes me feel anormal and like a psycho. And of course, another doubt comes into my head: do you really don’t want to be a bad person? And it’s a never ending disturbing and frustrating cycle... I can’t stop it, it’s driving me crazy and it makes me desperate. Is all this even normal?

I’m scared

Hi. I’m just really scared and I want to ask questions. I have been ocd and have been really suffering since December. The intrusive thoughts come like I want them now and it’s more of a “ well oh yeah you want to do that, and it’s gonna happen” and I start panicking and can’t focus and it scares the shit out of me. Is that ocd? Or is there something wrong with my brain and I’m actually some psychopath you see in a movie? I’m terrified. Im scared to be around my family, I’m scared to be around everyone. But I’m scared to be alone as well because I’m alone with the thoughts. What if these aren’t intrusive thoughts and I’m actually some terrible person who’s gonna hurt someone or is actually some psychopath who’s crazy? I hate this so much because I use to be so happy and not have any of these intrusive thoughts or worried that I was going to to hurt someone and now I’m so scared all the time. Can someone please answer some of these questions? I just want to make sure that this is ocd and I’m not a terrible person.
