Tbh I don’t really have any advice for you. I’ve never really been a big commenter on other things, but I guess just try to keep in mind that words are just words, even if you do say something, it’s a way different thing than acting on it.

Yeah. But then thinking of me being in prison makes me have a panic attack. That’s like my worst nightmare aside from acting on my harm thoughts 😳

@Kdeemz Im sorry you are going thru that, what is your advice for mine, thoughts of commenting the very worst violent threats possible???
- Date posted

@falsememoryharmocd You really just need to focus on uncertainty and acceptance. If you did comment the worst threat in the world, there’s nothing you can do now. You may or may not have. Focus on the now instead of trying to backtrack and figure out if you actually did comment those things, you’ll never find an answer therefore you’ll continue to feed into the OCD cycle.

@Kdeemz When i am texting or messaging friends on instagram or facebook i have to immediately double check what i just sent to make sure i didnt write a threat. The other problem is living with this constant guilt/fear

@falsememoryharmocd I relate to the guilt part. But remember, you’re having false emotions to false thoughts... recognize the fear of you posting threats is simply just a thought. Stop checking to see if you sent a threat!!!!!!!! That’s a viral step to recovery!

@Kdeemz Okay i will do my best to stop checking to see if i commented a threat

@falsememoryharmocd I’d say no. Just because we have OCD doesn’t make us anymore likely to act on thoughts, so If you do act on it there’s no excuse!

@Kdeemz So because we have ocd means we wont act on the thoughts right?

@falsememoryharmocd What does somatic mean?
- Date posted
- 5y
@falsememoryharmocd You may act on it, you may not. But doesn’t make us more likely. And somatic is when you’re overly aware of bodily functions. I have somatic OCD as well. I’m hyper aware of my swallowing and breathing.

@Kdeemz So the best way is to be comfturble of the possibility of that happening?

@Dre83 Do you have any advice for me please?
- Date posted

@falsememoryharmocd Yeah, you can say well maybe I did make a violent threat or maybe I didn't. Thanks for letting me know ocd but I'm going to continue to do what I'm doing. Also erp therapy works. I'm currently in erp therapy with nocd. You can probably find some erp examples for false memory if you looked it up but I would recommend NOCD if you can afford it.

It’s like my brain is doing everything in its power to convince myself and also justify an attraction to teenagers. I hate myself. I don’t want to be this person, but what if I don’t have a choice. How do I get these thoughts out of my head permanently. I feel like my life will never be the same if they don’t leave forever. I can’t tell what is a real desire and what OCD is trying to convince me is a real desire. I can’t do this every day for the rest of my life. I don’t want to hurt anyone, or I don’t think I do but how do I even tell anymore. This might not even be OCD at this point, I can’t separate my thoughts from OCD thoughts I think because I’ve had OCD for so long so it all just feels like me. Maybe it is me. TMI but I haven’t pleasured myself in like a week because my libido is so low now, I don’t want to do it with these thoughts.

I dont know whats going on. I dont know if its OCD anymore. I know it was in the beginning. Ive been through a lot of trauma and had one little scary thought of killing my sister 4 months ago that has blossomed into this giant idea of me being a serial killer and wanting to hurt everyone (I never had any social issues growing up but I have had some trauma). Recently I’ve been having urges to just give in. And my mental images have been horrible and I can’t stop checking if I like them or not. I think I’ve convinced myself I have. This morning I woke up a shaking mess with an urge to unalive my family and when my mom left for work I was alone with my sister and couldnt stop vomiting uncontrollably. I dont know if i’m upset because I cant hurt anyone and I want to, or if I’m scared and just want my old life back. I was an avid horror and gore lover and now I’m convinced I want to do the things I’ve seen in the movies. Someone please help. I’m ready to check into the psych ward.

Can harm ocd give you thoughts like when you’re in front of a trigger “why don’t you do it” and sometimes I either freeze don’t know what to do with myself and then an urge to throw the item away. Is this something else? And sometimes I get thoughts like “what if I’m lying to myself” and “do you think you’re lying to yourself”
