Okay please calm down and try to contact suicide hotline. You seem very on edge and I’m concerned. If you don’t want to talk to them on the phone, you can text them too. There’s also ocd hotlines that can help with suicidal thoughts as well. Just prioritize your safety before you try to figure out if this is ocd or not.
I will try to calm down
What are the ocd hotlines? Thanks
@Alyosha Can’t find the specific links but you can text NAMI to 741741 and speak to mental health professionals. Just specify what you’re struggling with and they’ll connect you with someone for ocd help
Just saw your post. Its been a few hours since you posted this, so I wanted to check in and see how you are doing now.
The same or worse. It’s like I can feel all of my intrusive thoughts being sent to my friends as I’m having them and none of friends are responding so that doesn’t help! I’m having a melt down feels very real
@Meabh As real as it feels, it’s the ocd. You can get through this. Do you have access to a therapist?
Hang in there! I agree with Meabh. You need some space before you try think about this. You’re in fight-or-flight mode. Something that helps me is to tell myself, “You don’t have to solve this tonight. You can think about this more tomorrow at 8:00pm.” And usually, by the time the “worrying appointment” comes up, I’ve calmed down and realized it wasn’t actually a real problem, just my anxiety at the moment sticking to a thought. Hope that helps!
If you feel you are a danger to yourself please go to your local hospital or ER... I know what you are going through and I’m here to tell you that it gets better. The problems that I thought would end everything for me are far gone and don’t even matter anymore. Just breathe and think about all the people who love and care about you... just remember that it’s the ocd talking, it’s not who you are. Ocd is special for everyone and we all deal with it in different ways. You are not alone, and please if you feel like you are suicidal get help! We want you to be safe.
(PLEASE HELP IM BEGGING!) Hey guys, right now I’m having suicidal OCD and it’s really fucking scaring me because I know I want to live but it’s feeling like I’m going to end my life any second or any day now and that I’m going to die soon, and I’m afraid that I’m going to come up with a plan and go through with it, or say fuck it, I don’t care about recovery, be selfish and just do it. I’m SO scared I don’t know what to do anymore, I don’t know if these are real suicidal thoughts or just my OCD attacking me and I’m genuinely scared for my life. It’s like every second of the day I get a stupid intrusive suicidal thought and it makes me feel like I’m really suicidal and that I don’t want to live anymore, for ANYTHING positive I hear, I twist it and make it negative and tell myself, you’re going to die soon, or you’re gonna kill yourself anyway, you don’t have a future, you don’t care anymore. I even feel a lil bit down and sad when I get these thoughts and I start to feel depersonalization, I almost feel depressed when I get these thoughts all day and it makes me feel like I’m genuinely gonna get depressed and the suicidal thoughts will become REAL I’m so scared. Even when my parents tell me that I’m going to be ok and not do anything, I tell myself in my mind that I’m still going to go through with suicide and just kill myself. I don’t have a set plan and I’m afraid that I may develop a plan and want to go through with it. IM SCARED FOR MY LIFE! IM SO FUCKING SCARED PLEASE HELP PLEASE! Anyone that has gone through this PLEASE HELP! Going into a hospital won’t help because I’m not ACTUALLY suicidal but these thoughts make me FEEL like I am and it’s just SO confusing I don’t know what’s real and what’s not!!! PLEASE HELP ANYONE!!!! I’m so fucking scared ??
At this point I’m pretty sure I’m psychotic. I have intrusive thoughts all day long of me doing a bunch of things that I never and will never do. Images of me poking out my own eyes in all sorts of other horrific things that will have to do with self mutilation. These images have been haunting me for two years with the persisting fear that I will act out on these things one day despite me never wanting to do so. Now on top of these thoughts I am dealing with something else. I keep thinking about the fact that there’s no escape from life other than death and it makes me feel scared and trapped. I can’t stop thinking about this that there’s no escape. It’s scaring me. I want to live I have no desire to die but once I get the intrusive thought about not being able to escape this life is scaring me. I believe I’m going through depersonalization because nothing feels right my surroundings feel unfamiliar I feel unfamiliar. I feel like an alien in a place that seems unknown to me. This all started after I had a panic attack in the shower three weeks ago over my intrusive harm thoughts and in the moment I actually thought that my life was over and that I was about to act out on it but of course I didn’t because it’s just a thought and an obsessive fear. Something I would never do but it felt so real in that momentI almost passed out from the fear. The day after that I felt like nothing was real and I’m still in depersonalization and having panic attacks on the regular but today I got that thought about not being able to escape life and how we’re basically all trapped here. I can’t stop thinking it and it’s making me feel sick. Maybe if I Felt more connected to myself and my surroundings stuff like this wouldn’t bother me but that panic attack destroyed me. Does this sound like OCD or something else?I was completely normal and fine three weeks ago yes I had my intrusive thoughts but they weren’t scaring me or controlling me like they are now.
Help! I’m having intrusive thoughts every two to three minutes. I learned about this things called manifesting and now I’m afraid my intrusive thoughts are manifesting horrible spells to make people do horrible things. Make it stop!
