No, T. the people we fear being aren’t anxious over those thoughts. They seek out those thoughts on purpose. You would do anything to get rid of this horrible disease right? I know I would. You are ok, just tell that ocd that those thoughts mean nothing, just like a junk channel going through your brain and say “ok I’m choosing to let these thoughts go through my brain but I’m not going to react to them because they mean nothing to me”

Stay strong T. I’ve said to @ocd465 that despite my major protection over my kids, I would let her look after them because the literature is clear. No one with OCD even comes close to acting on their obsession. In fact it’s the opposite, the avoidance and desperation to disprove the obsession is what drives it. I know that my kids would be safe with that person and that person would be behaving in life changing ERP. That person would be you too. Build self trust, confidence and define yourself by your beliefs, your values, and godamn it what you WANT. Not what the bully wants to convince you that you want

From few days I am getting thought that how i would hurt a child but now I am not feeling anxious like I used feel when I used have such kind of thoughts usually I used to have panic attacks and felt extremely anxious. But now I don't feel anything like that ? Now I feel like I am a bad person who would not feel bad if I hurt a child. What's going on can anyone tell me. I feel I will kill myself because I don't want to hurt anyone?

Is this ocd? I Have a thought or think something f harmful that I’ve gotten intrusive thoughts about - and get a feeling like I want/like it or it would give me relief??? Please tell me that will eventually go away and I’ll get my real feelings back??? Or have I just turned into those things? Sometimes things that make me upset it even feels like I’ll do them just so I can be upset about them.
