I’m having a rough time as well my friend. I’m so deep in my theme. I can barely go on social media because of all the awful things happening and then I get triggered. I don’t have much advice, but I want you to know you are not alone. And the more you try to combat the thoughts, the stronger and more real they will seem. Best thing to do is to just let them be and do not even analyze them or give them the time of day.

I think we have to figure out a way to live with our thoughts. The worst we do is dreaming of being relieved of something that's always been a part of our life. And that doesn't mean we are mean. It is just we feel things harsher than others. Most of the time, what you feel doesn't come from inside of yourself but outside, from life itself. You have got traumatized by violence and sadness happening throughout the world and have been interiorizing those things since then. Learn to trust YOURSELF, what you feel doesn't mean you are mean or evil, otherwise you wouldn't be here writing in an OCD website to get some help.

I have ROCD and it’s not even intrusive thoughts at this point. It’s actual feelings that I wanna dump my boyfriend but I felt fine and in love before

I made some research after you talking to me about this. I didn't know this obssession. I think It works the same as for "normal" OCD. The more you fix yourself on your OCD, the more it's getting worse. But it is difficult not to care about it we feel constantly responsible for our thoughts so that most of the time it come from harsh things we've been through into our lives. Courage ! ?❤️

Harm ocd Advice
Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with intrusive thoughts&images. At first i had intrusive thoughts around my partner, now it’s centred around me & I can’t be around window ledges or medication due to a story I read online(it’s too triggering for me) . Sometimes I feel like I can’t leave my bed due to the thoughts being so overwhelming I just break down and want to sleep. I aren’t taking any medication or therapy yet. I worry that if I don’t give my thoughts a reaction that my thoughts are true and not OCD. I’ve had these thoughts 24/7 for 2 months.

Intrusive thoughts
I struggle so bad with intrusive thoughts. They can be so bad that I'll cry because I KNOW that's not how I feel or want to do. (Too embarrassed to say what they're about) I'll constantly try to figure out why I have them, and constantly figure out what they mean, causing me to constantly circle around and around. I had to get on anxeity meds, which helped a little but the thoughts still happen. How do you help yourself with this? How do you know that you're just not some physcopath? 😅

Not doing great
TW I’m feeling really bad about myself today. I feel like a fraud and a liar. I’ve been unable to enjoy my time with my girlfriend because I’m bombarded with my thoughts. I’ve been asking for reassurance from so many people and nothing is helping. Nothing makes me feel better anymore and I’m worried that this is just how it’s going to be for forever. I miss when I could just be happy and not overthink so much. I miss being able to get through my days without this crippling anxiety. I’m worried there’s going to be a day where I realize I have no fight left in me
