You will never comitt suicide. You have ocd and thatās different. Youāre just scared and ruminating about it. Thatās all. I had suicidal thoughts for years and i am still around

I think that one thing you can do is trusting yourself. Ocd uncertainty about doing something to yourself will first be hard, but when you still express yourself despite the doutbts, I promise you will get so much more courageous. Because you have this unpleasant feeling about those thoughts, and overall ocd, it just means that those thoughts are nothing that you would want to do! I wish you all the very best, I'm with you.

The best way to get back at OCD for trying to prevent you from doing the things you enjoy is by doing them anyways. Youāre proving to it that āsee! Iām doing it and the fear youāre trying to plant in my head is a lieā. Remember they are the words of a bully, an annoying person yelling things at you. But that doesnāt make it true in the slightest. Make those videos to your heartās content and watch OCD back down

I feel this and completely understand. They are just thoughts though and we will learn to let them just float by and recognize them as just thoughts.

I don't know if this is super OCD related, but it's just there are so many things I want to do in life, but I'm scared. I want to apply for this restaurant waitress job near me, but I'm worried I'd be terrible at it as I have no experience and I'm worried they wouldn't train me properly. What if someone has an allergy and I accidentally serve them the wrong food and they have a severe allergic reaction and something awful happens and then I'm sued or go to prison? It feels like there's so many things holding me back. What if I give someone a drink but a piece of my hair falls in? It just feels like I'm never going to be able to do anything. I've never tried anything, never properly stepped out of my comfort zone, never had any kind of job. So I'm so nervous to try anything in life because there are so many things that could go wrong.

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 Iāve been having urges to just give in. And my mental images have been horrible and I canāt stop checking if I like them or not. I think Iāve 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 iām upset because I cant hurt anyone and I want to, or if Iām scared and just want my old life back. I was an avid horror and gore lover and now Iām convinced I want to do the things Iāve seen in the movies. Someone please help. Iām ready to check into the psych ward.
