I have the same issue!! It’s like you don’t want to do then but they just keep coming. Makes you feel guilty, especially if you have a family/kids. Almost Makes you afraid to be alone! Reach out if you need to talk! We will get through this girl! I’ve learned that mild fullness is pretty effective. Or just taking deep breaths and forcing yourself to do your every day activities to get your confidence back up. You have to be confident in yourself and KNOW you will not follow through and that these are just your worries/anxieties.

I am so sorry that you are feeling this way. I understand that harm intrusive thoughts can absolutely hijack your mind and make you feel like you will follow through. I do encourage you to reach out for more help if acting on these intrusive thoughts is a concern of yours. Remeber that you don’t have to believe everything you think. And if you do find yourself in an emergency know that there are hotlines and other resources available to you. I’m sure a NOCD advocate will have better advice on this, but I couldn’t keep scrolling and leave your concerns without comment. I hope that today the thoughts are less consuming 🙏🏼

I understand this completely. They are thoughts. They do not control you.

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

man these few weeks have been so hard. i’m in the process of getting diagnosed with ocd, im almost positive i have it because everything on here relates to me on an insane level. but im just so scared dude. these thoughts of me harming someone are so scary and im so scared im gonna eventually act on them and i know i never want to but its still so scary. like sometimes when i talk to my mom about it i think in the back of my head “you know you want to” when i dont, and it makes me think or gets me scared that i do. these thoughts literally just happened out of nowhere and it messes me up so bad my literal perspective on life in general is just messed up. like i view life as its more common to be a bad person and its rare/hard to be good. can someone please just pray for me or just wish me better days. i dont even like looking at myself anymore and im scared i give off creepy vibes to myself or others now, this sucks so much

Last week was a lot easier for me. I felt like thoughts didn’t control me and my actions as much as they did earlier. Today was really hard for me and I feel like I’m starting to lose hope again:( I can’t take the thoughts and the feelings that come with them anymore. I feel like I have failed and I’m never going to be happy again.
