Exactly. We need to work on that. We need to trust ourselves more. We ask questions of ourselves because others made us do so due to our caring and sensitive nature. And yes we would say that because what if! Well what if OCD is just another bully masquerading as your best friend? You could tell me you master aged and came to the thought of french kissing my son and I’d still take him to the nursery you work at. You got this hales. Dig deep - DIG. DEEP! You are scared you will find a filthy unlovable paedophile. I’m willing to bet the lives of me, my wife and my two kids...... That you’ll find a hero instead. You. Can. Do. This. YOU CAN!!!!
Your faith has me welling up in tears
I just loved reading that ✨? what an awesome partner in life you have
Thank you. My SO has told me I am one of the best people he knows yet sometimes I feel like a monster. Like I should not even exist when I obsess over mistakes or thoughts
Pluto i have no doubt you are a good person and deserve to exist and live a happy life!
*master aged = masterbated
Thanks
You deserve it @hales. You really, really do! Practice makes perfect, tell yourself these things that you want to be and that you can be what you want to be, and not fear what you fear. It’s all possible, but thoughts are thoughts. Actions and defining feats. Fake it till you make it. And this is not lying to yourself. We do this with everything. Even down to learning to walk as a child. We fake it! Until we make it! You. Can. Do. This!
I believe I have moral OCD and I reassurance seek about things because my brain genuinely cannot recognise if I should be upset/worried/ashamed about something or not. My brain just gets locked on one thought and cant get any real perspective. I read a post today on a OCD support group on fb where someone said "bad people often want reassurance to make them feel better about who they are/what they have done and get this reassurance online from people who dont know the full story about them". And it really triggered me because it made me think, am I not a good person? Is this really OCD? what if it's not and I am doing exactly what that person said? And that was so scary to me. I dont think I'm a bad person, I'll admit to making mistakes in the past like every other human on the planet but my intentions were never bad ones. And then I feel scared for even worrying about what that person said bc why would I worry after reading that? I feel like my brain just cant distinguish from reality and the reality that its created and its terrifying.
My ocd makes me feel like I’m a shitty person, like I’m worse than other people and in a dark times like maybe it would be better if I wasn’t existing (I’m not gonna commit suicide don’t worry it’s just a feeling)… idk maybe I’m just looking for support and also coping advice Like I always hear/see the statement “people with ocd are usually very kind and sensitive and would never do any harm knowingly” and then I’m like maybe I’m worse than most people with ocd because I’m not that kind I can be quite irritable and angry and I feel pretty bad about myself
My OCD doesn't tell me I'm a bad person, it tells me everyone ELSE is a bad person; my husband, my mother , friends, etc., and I should avoid them. My OCD takes something wrong they did to me (real event) and blows it up to an unforgivable, abusive event. Anyone else?
