Yes I have been suffering from these thoughts for months now, thankfully I’m going to be seeking professional help which is long due now, and have some relief knowing that if these thoughts brjng you discomfort it means you don’t want these thoughts and they don’t align with your values. Unfortunately we can’t rid ourselves from these thoughts but we can make them appear less often, and that is by simply sitting with the thought and treating it as all it is, which again is just a thought.

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!...
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....
