Your thoughts don’t make you who you are. Bad thoughts don’t make you a bad person. Thoughts on their own have no moral value, they don’t make you a better or worse person. We all judge and critisize other sometimes, it doesn’t make you evil. I think you are too hard on yourself, and that your low self esteem warps your perception of yourself. Take care. ❤️

I really liked this response. It’s hard dealing with negative thoughts and thinking those define you. Or thoughts you don’t want in your head.

Isn't it crazy how the OCD mind can twist and contort one's mind into thinking they are a bad person? OCD is very clever in that way. A very formidable opponent, to be sure. But, fortunately, there is evidence-based treatment known as Exposure and Response Prevention therapy that will help untangle the mess that OCD has created in the mind so that reality shines back in again. Have you ever seen a therapist that specializes in OCD treatment?

I can relate to your story. I was very bitter for some time and as soon as I tried to change it, ocd decided it was time to make a full blown appearance. Ocd attacks what we care about the most and who we love the most. Have you seeked therapy?
