intrusive thoughts
it got bad once again.. im so tired

A trick is thinking on that new intrusive thought and saying ''Oh a new one.. Anyways bye''.. While you look at it. Then do whatever you were doing. Recognizing that intrusive thoughts are normal (everyone has intrusive thoughts) and that they are just passing by clouds, will probably help
I feel the same, I personally was in a cycle for ten months of 12 hours a day looping.. managed to be rid of it for 2 whole days and it's already back. I hope you find what does work for you and then let me know lol.
It’s okay. OCD waxes and wanes. Just remember, don’t engage with the thoughts. Don’t try to fix them. Don’t try to fight them off. Don’t do anything with them. My therapist at NOCD told me to imagine my thoughts like leaves falling off a tree. You can notice them falling, but you just let them be there and float down the river on their own. If you don’t fight the thoughts (and just let them run freely in your head), they are not so exhausting.
I feel the exact same, I'm sorry it's happening to you aswell 😓🫶🏻
does anyone else get really vivid intrusive thoughts of the person who you are talking to (or close to physically) just randomly striking you violently? i keep getting them when i’m just talking to my dad one on one in the car & i get a flash of intrusive thoughts of him grabbing my hair & shoving my face in the dashboard. it gets me so anxious :’)
i’m back in a cycle of having harm related OCD thoughts and feelings and urges and i get these episodes where it’s like i’m disassociating and feel like i’m about to snap and go crazy violent. does anyone else experience this? i need help
Any one else deal with this? Like from the moment they wake up to the second they fall asleep, the intrusive thoughts are there?
