100% when I get over one another pops up. Hard to remember not to let them affect me when they change so much.

Absolutely it’s so hard and when no one around you in day to day life suffers from ocd it’s as though you can not explain it nor talk about it...

I can relate to this a bit. Whenever I overcome one intrusive thought, or even an entire subject bothered by my OCD, it’s like when I overcome it it leaves a void behind and like a vacuum my mind thinks up of something else to be worried about.

Ive learned that it’s just so hard to remember I’m getting better and not let these dumb thoughts get to me. Now that the more serious things don’t bother me I feel like my brain is attacking the most ridiculous things

Honestly I’m still trying to figure out how to manage it. I have meds but I need a therapist bad. I have days where I’m able to function and feel okay But there are other days where I feel like I need to be monitored or in a safe place. It’s tough

Intrusive thoughts
I’ve had many types of OCD, but I gained control over them over the years, but a new one has started to arise. Do y’all ever have scary thoughts about something you might do? Recently I’ll get extremely uncomfortable no matter where I am because I can’t stop thinking about “what if I screamed really loud in my lecture class tomorrow?” And other stupid stuff like that. Also, this one is kind of funny, but sometimes when I use the bathroom I pause before because I think “what if I’m actually in class right now?” I also cannot control the thoughts about past embarrassing moments. I know everyone does, but I will become visibly uncomfortable and harp on something from years ago. This happens all throughout the day. Also, does anyone else do things that resemble tics when you get these thoughts. Like when they happen I’ll curse under my breath or like jerk my head a little bit. When I’m in public I keep it low key but when I’m alone sometimes I’ll physically get up and pace or something when those thoughts happen. Just curious if anyone has had these experiences

Intrusive thoughts (21+ please)
I need advice for intrusive thoughts. I used to feel like I could handle them. They weren’t nearly as bad as the things that related to my actual life. But now, I’m suffering. I haven’t had a sexual experience in over a year that didn’t involve constant intrusive thoughts. Most are somehow related to kids and I keep chasing off the thoughts but it’s so bad. I know you’re supposed to ignore them but I don’t know how I can just ignore that and continue what I’m doing. But they’re coming on stronger. I had one earlier I could not get rid of just as things finished so the thought came on strongly just before my orgasm hit and now I feel absolutely disgusting. I hated the thought and I know it’s not me and it was not enjoyable but it still feels like I was getting off to it. I feel sick. I’m so fucking tired of these thoughts. They’re in my every day life too and it’s all the time. I just want it to stop but ignoring it feels so wrong. What should I do?
