I know exactly how you feel, and really the only thing that keeps me going at those times is the thought that God knows my heart. I try not to repeat it a lot so it doesn't become a sort of compulsive reassurance, but when it gets really bad, that's what I need to hear. God knows us and our hearts and knows we don't want these thoughts, He knows we agonize over them, and He won't judge us for them.

The guilt for these thoughts are very hard, even when I’m feeling low anxiety for them I feel guilty about them and I feel guilty for not feeling the anxiety too. OCD is crazy sometimes! It’s false guilt though, and these thoughts are ego dystonic and God knows that. Try to disregard the feeling, saying to OCD that you know what it’s trying to do and you’re not gonna play it’s game. Don’t avoid, but also do not pay attention. Stay strong, girl! ?

i hate this guilt!!! why do i have to have guilt!!! i hate p*dos! i think they’re evil and disgusting! my pocd is trying to convince me i am one of them and i should be dead or in jail😭i hate this so much, i have no desire to ever ever hurt a child, i think it’s the most evil thing you can do. so why is my brain trying to convince me i am that? why do i have to suffer every single day with intrusive thoughts and guilt when i know who i am inside, it’s just the random intrusive images and thoughts that are the problem :( the last few weeks have been extra difficult, i’ve been feeling just depressed and like i should end it all because of this guilt. i hate feeling like this.

I feel like I'm not progressing anymore, just when I think i think I'm getting better and that my ocd is not as bad anymore it gets bad again. I saw something that triggered a memory of something I did, and I can't seem to let go of it, I been ruminating for hours but my brain won't stop until I "figure" the memory out, until I confess to someone what I did. I feel so guilty and I keep getting thoughts telling me that I don't deserve anything because I'm a terrible person. I don't know what to, I tried accepting the memory and the fact that I can't change the past but it feels like I'm just trying to excuse my actions.
